    Education and Income (US, fairly recent)

    Re: Perhaps I will do a future analysis, but those gradations in income flow quite accurately to the differences in TAX brackets. In effect, the DELTA between one level and the next isn't enough of a NET increase that warrants the investment of educational dollars. For instance, a...

    Talking About God is NOT Religious.

    Re: By no means do I know how everything was created, or who did it, or if religion is the answer. Religion, IMO, always has a set of guidelines, NORMALLY during times of much less civilization, though this one seems to be devolving to that point, so it might bring it back into the limelight...

    Talking About God is NOT Religious.

    Re: I'm not even getting into a pissing contest on this one, because I'll juuuuust sneak in before the lock. Initially I was going to take the low road an ole kook would by saying "you're 19"...well I just did that so that's that. Point is God isn't NECESSARILY religious, but that's your...

    Talking About God is NOT Religious.

    A clarification, talking about God is NOT religious. Not by any stretch of the imagination. Granted, this is a PUA/seduction board/community, but people who want to convene will talk and palaver over topics of interest. There was not talk of any SPECIFIC religion, therefore was no...

    What did God do before he created the universe?

    Re: The human mind is too feeble to perceive anything beyond on our present reality, and even THAT is difficult for some people. Given the infiniteness of the universe, and the fact we can't cover the whole thing in any given lifetime, it's egotistical to proclaim there's NO GOD, or some such...

    "The Secret" (Free Google Video)

    Re: Based on the present conditions of middle east warfare, I've pondered whether it's the "End Times." Much of it seems to follow The Book of Relevations. Is it at all possible God has just forgotten about us after we contributed to the murder of his son? As a confirmed catholic...

    How much money do you spend on groceries?

    Re: About $30-40 per time I go, and I go about every ten days, so 90-120? That doesn't include supps. I haven't bought any in awhile. If it did, I'd be buying Optimum Nutrition Protein and down shakes all day until I couldn't grow JUST on protein powders. That total doesn't count eating out...

    Is she flaking, cheating, or spinning?

    Re: I'm of the mindset that when I can't confront a problem on my own with a girl, she no longer becomes worthy to be with. Anytime I'd ever have to post, to sit down and waste my friend's time, or really focus energy on "solving", the PURPOSE of being with her TOTALLY evaporates. If you're NOT...

    Im 25, she's 19.....I just hit the brakes!!!

    Re: As someone I work with says... "You can't breathe life into a cadaver." What's that mean? You can't string along or prop up or keep alive something someone won't give their 100% to the 50% they have to give. Nor can someone give MORE than 50% of a relationship very long without...

    Would you let Jessica Alba....

    Re: However, I might rim job Vida Guerra, just because her body appears to be composed of something not of this world. I believe her breasts leak Navan Cognac, and her pvssy drips Guinness beer. I have to believe her skin tastes like Caramel, and her azz would taste like potato chips, or...

    "The Secret" (Free Google Video)

    Re: I understand your perspective, and it's a healthy one, especially on these boards. I would not espouse this as a religion. And I do agree the appeal to consumerism and greed is perhaps what fed this thing like a virus through the internet. A few of the commentators, I truly liked. Bob...

    Re: THOUGHT is the FUEL of ACTION. If you're acting without your OWN thoughts, then you're a slave, or you're RE-acting, which is what most people do on a programmed basis. Each person has their OWN personal philosophy, however, IME THOUGHTS become things. Initially, you have a thought, say...

    Re: People in hospitals, my own mother will tell you, the difference between recovery and death is the will of a person. If a person believes God wills it, then they accept their status and follow that course. If a person believes they have more to achieve, more to come back from or to, they...

    Re: If that's the basis, which I'm sure that's not the full picture if Rollo doesn't like/respect him either, it's a foolish one. As noted in Jvesti's "T Theory" post, studies done on men wanting to become women and women wanting to become men concluded that men and women think different...

    Re: My experiences... I haven't grown it enough to STOP working, and I probably wouldn't stop anyways. I'd always to grow my wealth. I have made enough to pay haphazard bills, like a recent car accident (about $600) that won't dent me financially... You buy about 10 stocks. I personally...

    Re: Both quotes, to me, indicate a belief in "natural laws". The converse would be a belief in fate, destiny, serendipity, or luck. The Law of Attraction has been talked about from a variety of angles. Through NLP, through Think and Grow Rich, The Power of Concentration, Tony Robbins...

    who in the world came up with the bright idea of Monogamy?

    Re: Some thoughts... A rather good convo, but I can't believe with some of the intelligent guys we have here, THIS of all conversations still continues! If you want to have one woman, go for it. If you want many, have them. If you like prego hot chicks, like I do, have that. Have whatever...

    Reminiscenes of a Stock Operator

    Re: If you want to round out your collection, grab: Jesse Livermore: The Greatest Trader Ever (or similar to that title). It covers more indepth HOW he did what he did, during a time of less liquidity. In a roundabout way, IBD seeks to replicate the Livermore philosophy with their...

    why is it so hard now?

    Re: Believing is Seeing. Remember this... Whatever you believe, materializes. Over the weekend, my gf and I were having a spat. In the past, we were very up and down. I would be quick to show her where the door was, and she would be quick to drop everything, or be a bit upset and then...
