You rent. Your corporate landlord is not a lender. Therefore you are stuck because you didn’t meet your payment obligations on your lease contract.

It sure is interesting to see mortgage lenders are having to be more lenient than landlords. That’s brutal.

Yeah, I see why, it’s the same audience. Your first ad run will be your biggest performer and it diminishes from there.

You have to cast wider and be infrequent with your ads. It’s been a learning curve.

There’s a lot of traffic out there to find but yeah, a lot of that traffic is from social and search, which gives you as an advertiser 3rd tier quality results if you advertise on websites.

Having to get creative. Need to pay sites that monitor traffic and find the ones that get a lot of direct traffic. Now getting an ad on those sites has been tough too. It’s been a grind but worth it so far.

It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to realize every dollar printed out of thin air devalues existing dollars in the marketplace.

How much GDP does this equate to? According to the Cost of War project at Brown University, the failed global “war on terror” cost $8 trillion and caused more than 900,000 deaths over the course of 20 years.

Indians are raised with a level of perfectionism reward. Employees all across the world are being asked to do more and more, requiring harder and harder work to reach a level of satisfaction they are accustomed to. It is very easy to see why they burn out.

After reading all this stuff, I stopped advertising and have started going to independent sources for traffic. Advertising on podcasts has been fruitful.

I’m kinda done advertising on social media and search. It all feels… ick

Hate crimes are on the increase everywhere. People still have serious problems with other people having a different skin color.

Only now they’ve found internet communities to reenforce those biases to make it seem normal.

IRS did everyone dirty with this tiny increase considering how hard everyone was hit with inflation this year. Should have been $1,500 or more.

Storage cost has gone down. Bandwidth costs are way up.

Yeah we watch one 2.5 hour game and several highlight games of teams we like (or to monitor our division).

Sunday Ticket has been awful. We cancelled ours from renewing within 3 weeks. We like NFL+ better. My wife and I are OK watching games after they’ve aired.
