I’m sure I speak for most people when I say it’s cool to have money but the working part, not so much.

Seeing as most of us belong to the 99 percent ( the 1 percent can afford not to work) we have to work for our money. In case you don’t understand the reference, the 1 percent refers to the small group of people who get the largest part of the income cake while the remaining 99 percent hustle for the rest.

The secret of the 1 percent lies in generating passive income streams, then continuing to reinvest that…

Whenever blockchain is mentioned, people usually picture cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin and Ethereum. While it is true that cryptocurrencies run on blockchain tech, the technology itself can do so much more.

The Power of Self Awareness … 3 Exercises to Help Uncover Your Blind-spots.
