Are you sure? There are degree programs in English in many foreign countries, many of which are MUCH less expensive than the ridiculous prices you pay for university in America! So do some research before you give up. In fact, at your age, going to university in a foreign country might be just the right thing for you!EntrepreneurNet wrote: I would like to go back to school for computer science, but can’t afford it.
Easy: fear! Most Americans fear what they don't know and that the American media conditions them to fear going to foreign countries and brainwashes them into thinking that "America is number one" at everything.EntrepreneurNet wrote: What perplexes me is I talk to friends/family who’ve never lived anywhere else–they’re all convinced they want to STAY here until they die? I don’t see how any rational person could say that??

I do not call it "revenge"...it is actually JUSTICE.polya wrote:Yeah Right! Men need to stop being "pussies"! Women get their revenge every day e.g. take their man to the cleaners. So I personally disagree and think you should get revenge on people who deserve it. I'm not saying "go postal" but definitely do something in a smart way that's legal e.g. give her the clap, post photos of her somewhere...PrisonerOfLife wrote:Agreed. You should be thanking her for doing you a huge favor.patrick wrote:Revenge is not good man, let it go. Live your own happy life and one day you'll see she's f***ed herself up. It always goes like that.
I guess I should have realized that's obvious. Most people here are so brainwashed and living in fear they'll never break out of their shell. And I love all the patriotic "parrots" who think they are living in the best country in the world: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h__uutzcQXcJackal wrote: Easy: fear!

If you want to continue "unplugging" from American culture, start reading some news sites with real international news like AlJazeera and Russia Today.
Thanks a TON! I am definitely VERY interested in Opus and the MBA!PeterAndrewNolan wrote:Ben, let me introduce you to my pals at OPUS. www.opus.com.khEntrepreneurNet wrote: and now I’m trying to make it as a web-entrepreneur.
They are experts at building web sites. What I have suggested to men on this forum is that they can get into the business of developing web sites for businesses in their local area and use OPUS as the back end build people. The owner is the son of a friend of mine.
I am one of the top BI people in the world now. No one has the breadth of skills I have which is useful on a project because it means less people need to be hired to cover the gaps. I can do everything from write C++ like a pro to sales calls with C-level people as well as contribute to the marketing strategy for large organisations. Not many men can cover such different skills....most guys who are C++ programmers can not sell for nuts.EntrepreneurNet wrote: Thanks a TON! I am definitely VERY interested in Opus and the MBA!
I'tll have to get in touch with them. I also checked out your background and all your websites - you seem to know your stuff! So you're a IT/Data Warehousing guy? Good skills to have in this day and age..
I'm actually planning to open my web-development shop this month: once I've finished/launched 4 of my personal sites. I just need some "street cred" and reputation. So I was planning on cold-calling some of the >5,000 potential clients, small businesses and restaurants in my city who need websites. I'd give them an extremely affordable price since I'm new to the game. I already bought 500 business cards...
I spent literally the last 1 1/2 years learning Drupal. I figured Wordpress is too "limiting" for several of the BIG ambitious websites I want to build. But I've heard a lot about DotNetNuke from my web designer friends who swear by it..
I'm also very sorry to hear about your marriage. But It's good that you've turned all that emotion and passion into a drive to help other men succeed, and avoid making the same mistakes. Of course some men need help "getting back on track" after a major life derailment (mine was a mild one.)
I plan to read all your books when I get some free time. Not only for me - but so I can inform my friends as well.
I have a friend right now who just got divorced (at 33), paying alimony, left with $120,000 in debt, and just got his 2 children taken away from him by the courts -- I'm surprise he hasn't killed himself yet..
EntrepreneurNet wrote:Hi! My name’s Ben,
I just 'discovered' this forum today: and only just started reading. But it already feels like a breath of fresh air to me. I think I finally found some place where I belong.
So I’m a 23yr old, typical, white, middle-class (actually closer to lower class) American. I live in New Orleans.. I got a Bachelor’s degree in Finance last year, and am still unemployed. I gave 4 years of my life to get that degree, but it didn’t go to waste - because I will Earn my initial wealth through other means, and THEN use that knowledge to *grow my wealth.
I’ve given up looking for a job months ago – and now I’m trying to make it as a web-entrepreneur.
Relationships: I’m single. Actually just went through the most horrible, damaging, scarring experience of my life (thus far). As I almost Killed myself over it. But I survived, and kept my sanity. Although I don’t know how long it will take for the wounds to fully heal.
NOW my life is characterized by Only 3 goals:
1. To make as much MONEY as humanly possible.
2. To get out of this f***ing disgusting sh**-hole of a country!
3. *And sleep with as many beautiful foreign women, as humanly possible, before I die.
I guess I do want to have an actual relationship with some of these women instead of just sleep with them. But I know the nature of such things is transient. I don't have a lot of hope or expectations for that...
And also as a bonus - I’m want to rub it in my Ex’s face, one day.. The fact that she is a disgusting piece of filth and she is never going to get a chance with me again: When she’s divorced, all alone, OLD, wrinkled, disgusting, on antidepressants because her life has gone to sh**, and she threw away the ONE good person in her life who actually GAVE A DAMN about her. She’s simply not good enough.
I don’t care what anyone says or thinks about me now. I don’t care what my family or friends think. *I don’t care if they disapprove of my behavior. Because I can see how hollow and shallow they really are – they’re just as unhappy as me, because they’re all in dysfunctional/failing marriages.. or dead-end relationship. And they want to try to give me advice on how I should live my life?? YEah right!
I don’t think so.
EntrepreneurNet wrote:Also I've come to the conclusion that I don't ever want to have kids. EVER. I'm 100% sure about that now..
Not having kids or any family ties will make it significantly easier to travel the world and leave my past life behind.
I want to live this life in the moment, how I want to live, enjoying every day - and only for me. My focus is on my own happiness and pleasure first and above all else.
