There is always a way to make money on the interweb. I remember back in late 2005 when people thought I was crazy building a medical network selling Laser eye surgeries, hair transplants, and lumineers. Made a fortune and it all started with selling penis pills.

The point is, you can go digging for gold in your backyard and odds are you won't find any but there just might be diamonds, oil, coal, etc. Hell, start data mining if you don't want to deal with idiots because there are fools who will always buy that shit.
Lifts are closed here, so that has left me hiking. Heading up for a hike today with some friends though, looks like the sun is gonna be out. just a quick hike up to the top of the pass to drink some beers and have a fire maybe.

The issue isn't that I can't find a way to make money or a product that sells. Or a method that works. I am doing both. The issue is that while I'm watching the leads roll in, I can't help but think. These people, each and every one of them, is a fucking retard. A year or two ago it reached a point where I just didn't give a fuck any more and I began finding it entertaining how weak-minded and easily lead into these traps the population is when it comes to marketing.

I like the money and the fact that I'm unbound by schedules in my work, I'm not so much liking the picture of people in general that my job has painted for me in my mind. The internet openly exposes mankind for exactly what it is, and when day in and day out your job consists of sifting through numbers and data looking for the 'weak spots' so to speak, I don't understand how you can not turn into a slightly negative fuck.

If you were to ask me how I felt about people, the first thing that I think of is all the god damned idiots and how easily they're walked all over. Then I realize, that my job is doing that walking over, ignoring any moral hangups that maybe get in the way of it, and doing so all for money so I can buy a bunch of overpriced shit I don't really too.

Oh us people, we make me shake my head...
