Hey Gen Y, here are a few simple tips and you don't have to buy a book:  -Read a book.  -Take on a part time job that really only requires you to show up but on a fixed schedule. And in that job try to do the trivial, mind numbing work to the best of your ability.  -Actually physically talk to people and interact ...more

Absolutely ridiculous.  Eagle death quota??  What about the deaths of thousands of endangered fish species with every swoop of an industrial trawlers net?  With every death of an endangered mammal unlucky enough to drink the water pouring into a creek below a natural gas fracking operation.  Face it folks, we can not h...more

Agree with some previous statements: What a wasted space of an article.    Going by the title, I was hoping to find some secret, from an expert to help make me feel better about what  I am doing with the 401K or suggest ideas to improve it.  Instead,  all I want to do now is drain it, pay the fees and taxes, quit pa...more
