I don't see how any of these solutions help. At the US border agents routinely ask you to log into your email account and search your emails. If you refuse to comply it is much more likely they will not let you into the country. So the

There is no guarantee the stock market will return money in the future. The past does not equal the future and in fact some experts predict that the stock market will return around 3% on average going forward. Also even if the average retur

Are you talking from your own experience? I am. I made a million dollars and it wasn't easy but it was actually a lot more difficult to invest $1 million and make more money with it. I personally found it a lot more difficult. I think

I did not agree at all. In my experience it's much easier to make 1 million then it is to invest 1 million and make another million. Also there are many startups that require zero investment capital and if you do not have a family and

Less than 100 years ago it was considered NORMAL to segregate black people and prevent access to certain locations in the US. Now it's illegal and considered totally unacceptable. Is it possible that in the future it will be considered

This is a ridiculous idea. Might work for people who have a very simple tax return but the IRS could not possibly calculate my tax return it's incredibly complicated and is not based only on information that they have access to.

For women who also want to have children at the same time as co-founding a startup, I think it's important not to underestimate how difficult this is. When my wife was first breastfeeding I timed how long she spent breastfeeding and ch

The attitude of renting or getting a loan for any consumer item is financial suicide. Why they don't buy second hand I don't know? You can go to an auction site, get the same $1500 sofa for $500.

Double taxation of corporate taxes exists in the US but it's not the case in every country. For example in Australia you get a personal tax credit for any corporate taxes that you pay. This is the reason why a lot of people choose an L

The idea of getting a loan to buy something that you can get for free (top universities put a lot of their course content online for free) is ridiculous. It only makes some sense for degrees where the university education is a 100% prerequi
