That sucks. Keep your wallet closed and encrypted boys and girls, and look more carefully at that URL you're clicking. Also, use a browser that asks PERMISSION before using Java, and use AdBlock when possible.... difficult I know for IM, but that's what sandboxed browsers are for. I run a VM...

I think you bring up a very important point. What is the definition of success? It is such a completely vague term -- at its essence, you can say that it is the accomplishment of goals. I think to answer your question, at least here in America many people conflate success with "I made a lot...

Congrats, guys!

That's "known." Your comment is another example of projection bias. :D

That is called: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Projection_bias You might want to look into that as well.

Because if you have a good education, you won't do things like this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ad_hominem

I make a pretty comfortable living, and don't feel so insecure that I have to brag to strangers about my "e-wealth." Besides, what good is all that money if you can't hold a proper conversation at a dinner party because you can't properly articulate what's on your mind?

That's just Muphry's law in action. BTW, the reason it was not capitalized because the poster's handle is not capitalized. With a formal name or trademark, you do not capitalize even the beginning of the sentence if the trademarked item, handle, or alias is not capitalized. For the record...

Fellow grammar Nazis -- don't be angry that I started a sentence with a preposition, left incorrect syntax in, and did not use standardized proofreading symbols. The Jay-Z quote was amended to reflect the original, which I know has incorrect grammar. I'm aware of my heresy, but have limited...

If that guy was fabulously rich and successful and was uneducated, the same principle would still apply, no matter how "hard" you worked for it. Kind of like those "new money" celebrities that go to Michelin star restaurants and bring their own steak sauce... wearing sneakers. Money cannot buy...

Just look at the grammar and cognitive abilities (and I mean lack thereof) of people telling you that "school is a waste of time." I wouldn't listen to them, or you might end up like them. IMHO, you should consider simply changing your major to one that suits your interests and abilities...

Anybody with a basic understanding of economics understands that this price drop was a long time coming. And anybody with a basic understanding of economics knows this has *a lot* further to fall. My target is <$7. I'm still laughing at the advice I see to "buy and hold" BTC! :nana:

He's the mindmaster, that's how. Didn't you see his username?

I was a Butterfly Labs customer that "pre-ordered" in June of last year. After having the dates for the ASIC miners getting pushed back for months and months, with breathless announcements that they were coming "any day now", I cancelled my order in January and got a refund. I don't regret...

It is likely that the company is making money, but given as this is vaporware as no one has the product in their hands at this point it is really hard to say for certain. Given the company's poor track record for keeping customers up to date, I would be *very* nervous if a dime of my money were...

I wouldn't hold your breath. Butterfly Labs has been saying they'll ship "any day now" for the last six months. The dates keep getting pushed back, and back, and back -- I canceled by BFL "pre-order" many moons ago. If you're a new person with a pre-order, the earliest you'll get your...

This thread is hilarious! It is funny how "I'm not doing anything wrong" turned into "I didn't think I was doing anything wrong!" once the perp is thrown into the slammer... OP, you should consider yourself lucky to get a warning. I would cease and desist before the FB legal eagles either a)...

My guess is 35.

Full disclosure, I use Payoneer and PayPal -- to be honest with you I keep Payoneer around solely as an alternative to PayPal, because they haven't pissed me off... yet. If they do, I'll jettison them and work with other merchant providers. The main reason I'm still with PP is because I'm too...
