What finally worked for me is listening to history audio books/lectures. It takes my mind off of real life things, and since it's just audio there is no light involved. History is perfect because there aren't many…
My retirement funds are in stock index funds. That and my daughter's 529 are the only stocks I own. Everything else is bonds, cash and real estate.
I agree with your point entirely, but my point is that most people don't just sock money away for decades if it isn't specifically retirement money. Usually it is saved for some medium-term goal, which stocks could…
Something that's never made sense to me about stocks: Unless you're extremely wealthy, any money you are able to save (outside of retirement money) is probably money you are going to want to use for something to improve…

Only a year or so into my career I started getting pain in my upper right back from using a mouse. I tried various adjustments to my desk/chair setup but eventually it got to the point where I couldn't use the mouse…
During high school I became aware of community colleges and it actually occurred to me that all the homework and stress involved with maintaining a high GPA simply wasn't worth it. I took easy electives and barely…
I briefly contracted there and it was obvious to me that this would happen. The platform they built is really amazing, but there was no sense of how they could start making money in any reasonable period of time…
I feel like a tremendous factor behind the numbers for middle-tier schools is simple geography. For example, I make more than double what many of my college friends who I consider at least equally as smart and motivated…
I lived quite far from school in my middle and high school days. It meant an hour long bus ride both ways (plus a 1.5 mile walk from the bus stop), and having to wake at 5AM to get ready. The only way I had any free…
It's fairly simple to piece together a framework with React. I'm using React, Flux, React-Router and Superagent.
