@coreyganim I got the last business I managed from just opening the doors with zero sales and zero awareness with our customers, to the busiest shop in our state, mostly through cold calling and cold office visits. It took 7 months.
@alyssajavas@GeauxGabrielle How old are you? I wish I could mentor more young people on how to make more money.
I’ve done it with my kids and their friends and they’re all doing better than average, and some are way ahead of where I was at their age.
It makes a huge difference to have mentors.
@dilanesper As a hardcore conservative, I’ve always been a fan of hers.
My parents, who were even more hardcore Christian conservatives, and witnessed the early changes she helped bring about, liked and respected her as well.
@UrbanCourtyard I’ve always been closer to everyday amenities time wise in the suburbs. My house is also large enough to store stuff so I stock up with Costco items on occasion.
@_Shivkivani I’ve been married for 25 years - never even thought about it.
Since I’m a risk taker by nature and have no problem attracting women, I meet the profile of a guy who’d do that.
So the credit goes to my wife: she’s given me companionship, children, and we have regular sex.
@JoshMosh138@ScottAn86783368 Talking like a Marxist in the modern world is a sign of an unhinged mind.
A century ago you had a ton of smart and ambitious Marxists.
Nowadays they’re either: lazy, dumb or unhinged. Often they’re all three. That’s how you know they’ll never take over.
@JoshMosh138 I grew up dirt poor and employ a lot of poor people. If you are able and willing to work, are not an absolute moron with money, don’t have any vices, and don’t have children out of wedlock, you won’t be dirt poor.
@nope__nope__ugh@dilanesper That’s because they’re safe neighborhoods. It’s not that it’s walkable that makes it attractive. It’s the people that live there that make it walkable, that make the neighborhood attractive.
You can walk in many areas where no one walks because they don’t feel secure.
