Some people use GFY just for business some just for "entertainment". Unless you are working 100+ hours a week or making more money than you want (<- prolly applies to no one) then instead of posting about BS, and wasting 10 minutes or 5 hours, spend it working or at least posting about business related stuff that will help you, and others.

After you have spent a hour arguing with someone about politics, current events, religion, etc etc... stop and think WTF did you accomplish, did you even change the other person's thinking, and how did that help you any ? Did it make you more money etc... Don't get caught up in the none sense. Doesn't just apply to GFY, there are other things in your life you could end up wasting too much time doing that does absolutely nothing to help you. If you want to take a break go spend time doing a hobby, watch something funny, read info that will help teach you to do whatever you do better. Help someone....
Great advice
