You choose to make an argument around: since you assume I am a man, I therefore do not know and I am wrong. Learn to form a valid argument before you open your mouth. Your comment is not even deserving of a retort.

I'll say again as you appear to have missed it the first time: "Any professional in her situation, male or female, would have spoken up if they had a problem. Period." There are no exceptions to this rule. This is not male/female issue. I

-Taxes. -Don't try to do everything yourself at first, if you can out source it for a nominal fee, do it. Focus on your circle of competence. -Get a written contract. Always. No matter what. Not kidding.

Most people? Who are you referring? Any professional in her situation, male or female, would have spoken up if they had a problem. Period. Those people may well have stereotyped her, but when she fails to speak up about it and sits there

"OK, kids, time to stop squabbling in the sandbox and go home." I could say the same for our judicial system up until now. Slam them all day if you'd like (referring to the judge), but all the patent troll rulings up to this point has prec

I'm glad someone made the connection; if his landlord is going to Airbnb anyway, why not cut a deal? If I was his landlord, I would have more than enough leverage with the breech of contract to get him to sign a new similar contract, this o

This is the strategy of weak people. If it is actually used, in the way prescribed, by an average middle class American it will inevitably lead to financial ruin. The only people who can realistically live off of this strategy are investor

I guess this wasn't made clear by the way I worded my opinion, but I was insinuating that you could legally pay all you are required to as per United States tax law while socially not paying your fair share. Great example: my fictional gran

It depends. You argument is very narrow. There are LOTS of ways to avoid paying your fair share of taxes, it depends on the situation and where the cash flows are coming from. As for the Zuckerburg situation, what he did is pretty common.

If being intelligent enough to make billions off (in op's opinion) no work, makes you an asshole, then count me in. Also, popular narrative is "Steve Jobs is an asshole." Popular narrative also wonders who this Mark Zuckerburg fellow is.
