    Millionaire tip of the day- Meet a 20yr. old MILLIONAIRE

    Re: Gotta step up. I don't care who dispenses the message, LOOK beneath that and see the merits of what is being talked about. Anything you name is and can be scammed. Health supplements. The stock market. Real estate. Business opportunities/MLM. Jeez I was at Olive Garden and...

    View of College?

    Re: True enough, sifer, and I don't take any offense by anyone. We've both talked and I think anybody that knows me doesn't take handouts (didn't have parents pay for college) and never walked through it. I say that because for the "enlightened" guys who see it for what it is, there IS...

    Re: The REAL value in a college education are the things MOST don't see. *Making connections, to SOME future business leaders (make sure you're at a good biz school). *The opportunity to join other interest groups, practice in your major, and connect to experiences. College is an...

    How much protein?

    Re: Trying to get 330g of protein a day is near impossible, expensive, complex, and likely to make you feel terrible. People lose significant weight on high protein diets because protein foods are not nearly as calorie dense as carb foods. Brown rice, bagels, potatoes, salad, fruits, etc...

    Why u should ignore lifestyle & be a social robot

    Re: Gotta agree with the man. His story is much the same of anyone who has passion to plan his work and work his plan. I did the same, not nearly as large a scale, and not nearly as intensive, but I did it. For years post-college, I just went out with whatever friends, wherever, doing...

    Are Books Overrated?

    Re: Personally, I like books more than college courses. Not only are college courses drawn out, the text books don't require you understand or find the info, or even determine what you do and don't get, but they're academic, not real world. What's the use of information if it's not applicable...

    Xbox360? Dissapointed

    Re: My thought would be to wait until both drop and get both. For as long as memory serves correct, each system had it's own perks unique to the system that made it worth owning. Most households need 2 dvd players. And if you wait, inevitably the 400$ version will hit at least 300...

    Xbox360? Dissapointed

    Re: From what I know of the XBOX and XBOX 360 its the most versatile of all systems. Friends of mine moded the XBOX and were able to download lots of free movies, videos, porn, games. You can even rip rented games on it. They expanded the drive to 80g+ and house all their multi media on it...

    How much protein?

    Re: The Great Debate. To protein or not to protein. When you're lifting for muscle, the first caveat is to consume MORE calories than you expend. It wouldn't matter if you did 3g/#lb of body weight, if you didn't EAT more calories than you burned per day. The question then is, how many...

    Are Books Overrated?

    Re: Books are the free means of acquiring knowledge of times past. There was a time when people couldn't read. Then they weren't allowed to read certain books. Now, we can read anything we choose to. It is a priviledge, and the only means by which an independent thinking body can forge ahead...

    A few quick questions about bulking

    Re: When you're lifting, and bulking, you'll consume the brunt of your calories AROUND the weight lifting session. So if you lift at night, you'd eat moderately before it and heavily after it, say 1 or 2 meals if you lift @ 5 or 6. Then when you wake, get a good breakfast in. Take a...

    Millionaire tip of the day- The definition of "LOSER"

    Re: I'd say many owners declare bankrtupcy, BUT the key diff. being that it's done via a corporation or some other means. When Donald Trump declared it the innumerable times he has, it didn't effect him personally. The rich don't own assets, the merely control them and reap the benefits...

    Millionaire tip of the day- The definition of "LOSER"

    Re: Bringing reality to the forefront on debt, Bush's law passed on debt now. It will hurt those under 35 and those over 60 most. Why? Under old law, one could declare Chapter 7 and hopefully have their debts whipped away, wait 7+ years and start fresh. No more. If it is deemed you can...

    How long does it take to gain 10 pounds of muscle?

    Re: *Carbs are not the enemy, refined sugar is. So are saturated fats. *Calories are what count, not nutrients. If you only the maintenance amount of calories and a few extra calories from protein, you won't gain a thing. Gains come from EXTRA calories. *Protein is not the be all end all...

    bench press question??

    Re: This is a no brainer. DB put the weight almost directly in control of the chest. Because of the framing in the BB press, the rotator cuff takes great stress. The front shoulder and triceps receive the greatest force. The range of motion is also limited. All of these factors take away...

    How long does it take to gain 10 pounds of muscle?

    Re: I'll admit, I've bought most training / lifting programs out there, and less than 1% vary from each other. They might change the reps, or sets, or vary the exercises, they all have theories on what works and what doesn't, the best exercises, etc. Some go so far as to blast supplements...

    Your worst female encounters!

    Re: -Had a girl refer to her pvssy as her "spinach." So gross, I slowly pushed away from her and stopped dating her. I joined back up with her again 4 years later, '03, hooked up a few times and found out she was a 'squirter' (which I dug). She was kinda nuts tho, and my buddy 'tried' to move...

    To all the econ/business people here!

    Re: First off, I wouldn't take the info of anybody but yourself. That said, I'd go commerical law or marketing. Why? Marketing/Sales pays!! You get results, you get paid. You get big results, you get pay. Upper mobility is limited if you can't sell and close deals. Sure, if...

    Re: Crap. You don't need to be sold Abs. You have them, under all that fat. Just look at anyone who is skinny, they're ripped. The abs are already toned because we use them everyday and in everyway. Just lose the fat and you'll see. A-Unit

    How long does it take to gain 10 pounds of muscle?

    Re: Depends on how much you eat. And what you're eating. First, find out what your baseline caloric intake must be. This is done by calculating your weight, by your body fat % and knowing your height. The formula is available online and if you're lifting, you should know it so you can follow...
