    How To Sell To Smart People?

    Sell to smart people the same way you sell anything to anyone. Appeal to their needs! When the heads at Target realized they were getting beat by Amazon in same-day shipping they had a need. They started looking for solutions and long story short, they ended up acquiring Shipt for ~$550m...

    What would a generic consulting fee look like in this case (wording wise)? How would one word it to be professional but still remain cordial?

    Is it possible to gain weight / mass with just US$50 per month?

    HEALTH 
    Mass gainers are typically composed of mostly maltodextrin and protein power so that males sense why it's making your stomach upset when it's still spoiled milk. I can't eat peanut butter (allergies to legumes) but it has a high fat content and sometimes high sugar so it's really not healthy...

    Is it possible to gain weight / mass with just US$50 per month?

    HEALTH 
    If you're leaving your shake out and using whey protein, that's essentially spoiled milk you're drinking.. narsty. For your goal you'd be best served doing some basic strength training in addition to eating more food. The guy you posted probably lifts weights in some fashion but clearly isn't...

    Is it possible to gain weight / mass with just US$50 per month?

    HEALTH 
    Individual needs will vary, and only you can say how many calories you need to gain weight, but I'll go through what I use to bulk and cut and the cost. Speaking of cost, $50 per month which is ~$1.65 per day. That is no bulking budget, $50 per month is a survival budget! My diet with costs...

    GOLD! HOT! 
    Finally finished unscripted! Really enjoyed the read and learned a lot. Will be referring back to both books whenever I feel off track!

    Fear and Action-Faking in Entrepreneurship-- a 19 year old's guide to askholing.

    PSA: Do most of your work on a computer? Then invest in a better laptop.

    MINDSET 
    Installing an SSD into ANY computer (as the boot drive) will dramatically improve the speed of the computer. Any desktop and the majority of laptops can have their hard drive(s) upgraded and there are only positives. Sure there are other bottlenecks one might find afterwards but the SSD is...

    Higher matematics and business

    My engineering degree gave me the ability to think differently. The ability to look at a system or a problem and break it down into tiny pieces makes things far less overwhelming and more manageable. Do I find myself analyzing the heat loss of a sphere using multi-variable equations? Not since...

    Should I stop my 401k?

    INVESTING HOT! 
    $1.00 + 20% = $1.20 (20% more to invest) $1.20 * (percent change in 401k over time) = Gross Return (Gross return) - (Uncle Sam's share) = Net Return

    Should I stop my 401k?

    INVESTING HOT! 
    It really boils down to your personal risk tolerance. For me (and this is very slowlane), I max out my 401k and IRA every year. I see it as a hedge against never succeeding in my own business ventures and having a sort of consolation prize. Is that a pessimistic view? Maybe. I like to keep...

    My (successful) weight loss strategy.

    HEALTH 
    @lewj24, maybe I incorrectly lumped you in with @startinup in that I don't think tracking insulin release makes nearly as much of a difference compared to total calories consumed vs burned. That was my bad. One could technically lose weight on twinkies only indefinitely as long as they...

    My (successful) weight loss strategy.

    HEALTH 
    Update: Since I've met my goal and have learned to eat properly every single day, I've been increasing calories to help with strength gains. I tested my maxes last week and I'm currently at: Squat: 460 lbs (208 kg) Bench: 280 lbs (127 kg) Deadlift: 485 lbs (220 kg) Overhead Press: 170 lbs (77...

    Hello folks. I have another update coming for you soon. I have been making great progress! New goals have been made and I will go into detail about those in my main update. As for @startinup and @lewj24, please do your homework before spouting all that bro-science nonsense on my progress...

    My (successful) weight loss strategy.

    HEALTH 
    Checking in here (I'm making this a progress thread now) and I met my goal weight (200 lbs) on 3/9/2017! I dipped down to 197.6 lbs while I started to add calories back into my diet. I've also been diligent with keeping track of my weight every single day. I started at 1500 calories in...

    Anybody interested in a "Fast-Lane" body transformation challenge to push each other...?

    HEALTH 
    Firstly, awesome progress @grindmode! Do you mind going into detail a little about your cut? Starting weight in first pic? I've been on a cut as well (not as aggressive as yours and slowly bumping the cals back up) and food is all one needs! No extra supplements required. You mentioned you...

    My (successful) weight loss strategy.

    HEALTH 
    I've gone from 214.8 lbs to 202.3 lbs over the past 6 weeks. For reference I'm 6' 1" tall. Allow me to share my process and what keeps me on track. Before I wanted to lose weight I was only concerned with getting bigger and (mainly) stronger. Last fall I was the strongest I'd ever been but...
