  • On practical terms, the business should have change.

    On a technical level you should have the exact cash for payment.

    The bill is $79. You must provide $79 as payment. It is not $100 nor is it $73. It is $79.

    They are under no legal obligation to have change for every denomination that you can come up with.

    It is really smart to have change for the customer. Because of this, businesses make every effort to have change for us for any denomination we can bring to the cash register. It makes the transaction run more smoothly and leaves the customer with a more satisfying experience.

    They do this so much for us, that we take it for granted.

    So now, when someone expects us to have the exact amount for the bill, we feel oppressed.

    Keep your ideas to yourself.

    I have a few ideas that I think are worth some money.

    There have been at least three that I did not act upon, but someone else did.

    In 2007-2008, I was looking to open a business, preferably on the internet.

    My first idea was for a dating site where women had to make the first move to contact the man.

    The second idea was to create a site where people could post long form articles instead of the 250-word articles that were so popular back then.

    The third idea was to have a site where models could post their images and videos, and people would pay to see the work of the individual models.

    As you know,

    The first is Bumble

    The second is Medium

    The third is OnlyFans/Patreon.

    So yeah, keep your ideas to yourself.






  • I love how on every one of your sites, you immediately tell the visitor what the site can do for him.

    You don’t know how many times I land on a site, and it takes me 15 minutes to figure out what they do. On some, I give up because I can never get a clear message of what they can do for me.

    Good work.

    Wealthy people have expensive hobbies.

    The more expensive the hobby, the more wealthy you have to be.

    Go there and you will have many wealthy friends.

    Your network of people more than anything will determine how far in life you will get.

    I know it is a generalization, but you get the point.


  • Open to numerous different pay types/partnerships/etc

    If by this, you mean someone that will code all your ideas and you two can split the profits. That does not exist.

    I used to work for MTV, yeah the video music giant. I was a web developer for one of their sites. Not only that, but I do not code much(I do a little Python that is it). The site was a Content Management System, like Wordpress, so it was easy to run.

    Every week, someone, thinking I could code, which I can’t, would tell me that they have ideas and that if I coded them, we could split the profits.

    In business, someone make the products and someone sells it.

    Either you are in production (software engineering) or you are in sales (Marketing etc).

    A guy, with nothing but an idea, has no value.
