    Two are quickbooks and freshbooks. You really should study accounting if you've never seen discounts tied to the date paid. Cash flow is important to every business, and a lot of b…

    I've been following him since I took the 'isidewith' quiz. I hadn't even heard of him before, but he's 96% compatible with my stances. Wouldn't it be nice if everyone instead of vo…

    I simply cannot compete on price with those living in India and Pakistan. Sorry, I can't do programming for $8 an hour. All these sites are packed full of people who will do the jo…

    I gave it up about 5 years ago. I say that, not to say that "I never drink" but I don't get drunk. Last night I had maybe 4oz of some wine after dinner, after not having drank any …

    Considering that they don't have a job, and thus have more free time to contribute shouldn't make them look bad. I have a job, I do my job, I go home. Occasionally (like on my birt…

    Yeah, usually on or around my birthday I'll donate some of my personal time to improving open source projects, I certainly don't want that looking bad for me just because I try to …

    1. Don't try to boil the ocean. You can't change the whole world at once, you can only affect your sphere of influence. You first need to expand your sphere of influence. 2. The ea…
