#10. Stop believing you'll make it if you work hard. The game is rigged because a generation before you set up a casino ensuring your attempt at modern life will only enrich those who got to set up the system ahead of you which includes: insurance companies, the tax system, the over priced education system, the over priced health insurance system, the legal system, the banking system the political system. No wind in your sails here. Stop believing bullshit written by old retirees who only hope you continue to fund their pensions, their social security, their medicare, their government debt. Stop believing you'll be the one holding the big check in front of the cameras and that the American Dream we spoon fed third world country citizens to believe the same lies is attainable after a generational top in the stock market. #11. Every cycle is: Birth, Growth, Maturation, Decline, Death. And then the cycle can begin again. Starting in 1980 the United State's #1 innovation was financial based. More masturbation for a generation of delusional AARP retirees managing their Vanguard Account. This part was Decline. The next phase is Death. If you think otherwise, then you're already a bad trader and shouldn't even consider looking at this web site. #12. Working hard means actually physically working hard. If you sit on your ass and try to make computer digits to convert money into the only market that means anything these days (the Supermarket) to feed yourself, then you are part of the problem. #13. Gasoline will be $8 in your lifetime. So will 30% unemployment. Deal with that fact and tell everybody else that says you're not trying hard enough that you are starting a new security business and they look like they need some protection. #14. Align with others in the same position. Do not fight each other. Work together. #15. Learn to shoot a firearm straight.
I was surprised too. Made no sense. Either Americans are lazy. Or forced to spend unproductive hours at work like slaves. Or socialist Europeans are simply smarter and work harder. All inconvenient truths to Americans.
Stay away from for profit private colleges and avoid liberal art degrees examples like women's studies,history,humanities,social work,journalism etc.. try to go for 2 year degrees in things like nursing,etc http://www.holytaco.com/the-10-most-worthless-college-majors/ Why It Wonât Help You Get a Job: Go into a communications class on any given day and itâll smell like dried semen and booze. Reason being, communications is the major for anyone who wants to graduate, but doesnât want to stop getting totally wasted on weekdays. Hereâs the bad news, if an employer is going to hire someone to help decipher how human beings communicate, heâs going to hire someone with the letters âDr. before their name, not the person who first checks to see if a class is offered online, then when they find out itâs not, letâs out a âgaaaaay bro. What Job Youâll End Up With: Youâll go to several job interviews that turn out to be pyramid schemes, even though at first you wonât realize this and come home and tell your parents, who you still live with, âThey said Iâll probably be making six figures in less than a year just by selling these beer cozies.
That's a great article, definitely put a big on my Communication major face...LOL!! Is it too early for a nip of vodka? After all, it IS Friday!!
How 'bout this: Don't get a woman preggers unless SHE is financially secure. It's working for Ashton Kutcher, and that tall dude that married Kim Cardigan.
All good points but kids better know these things before they graduate. A little off topic here for a moment. My daughter is in 10 grade, she complained they have spent 4 days on Galileo, including watching an animated cartoon ( she said along the lines of sponge bob). I said we are in a heap of trouble. Next up, she said she had to write a paper on a current event. I suggest Greece and found her some you tube vidoe's for a quick summary to see if she was interested. Next day, it seems Greece was one of the suggested hot topics. Now the kicker is, the essay is on "oppression". geesus h crist, leave it to the teachers union to find the Greeks are oppressed.
