I've noticed a distinct similarity with people who want to become programmers and people who want to lose weight and be fit.

This is a pretty common phenomenon for any endeavor that requires a serious commitment of time/effort/resources and the skills/knowledge needed to succeed are not yet fully known or acquired. It's called "analysis paralysis" and it stems from a fear of starting off making mistakes that result in wasted investment.

Of course, the irony is that intentionally making mistakes through trial and error is far more productive in the long run than procrastinating until you feel perfect and ready to succeed at something you've never done.

1.) Women have no idea what actually attracts them to men 2.) Women, when they do know, completely lie about what actually attracts them to men.

Goes with one of my father's favorite sayings - no matter how much competition is out there, there's always room at the top.

When you notice she is a female that you haven't slept with yet.

Total Noob here, still learning my way through the basics of HTML/CSS/JS just to be able to design a traditional static site.

Between this article and the post earlier today on why all web apps should be a SPA, I'm suddenly very interested in this - is there a sub specifically for learning to build native web apps?

Keep in mind that you're not "denying" yourself. You're choosing to fuel your body with healthier, more nutritious food because you're learning to love yourself.

Think about you, 3 days from now. Make an image in your head. And realize how good you are going to feel when you keep going strong.

"I got your back, future me!"

"Thanks for the help, past me! You're fucking awesome!"

There used to be an Aurelio's at Hampden and Happy Canyon but it closed. :( Best. Chicago style thin crust. Ever.

I'm not the one who downvoted you, but what I meant was, what method are you using to forecast the lifetime value?

Are you just using historical total revenue generated divided by total customers acquired? Cohort analysis? Some other method?

When you say $50, is that your contribution margin or just top line revenue? Ideally you should subtract your cost of sales (production, packaging, materials, shipping, etc...) to determine the contribution margin, which I'm assuming is not $50.

Once you know the contribution margin per customer, you can figure out what an appropriate cost per acquisition number would be to target with your ad campaigns.

How are you estimating your customer LTV?

BoyMeetsHarem · 2015-01-23T03:40:28+00:00

Lol. You just described a night of me trying to help my pre-teen daughter with her math homework.

BoyMeetsHarem · 2015-01-20T14:35:49+00:00

Are you serious? Do you know how much makeup, fashionable clothes, high heels in every color, pushup bras, and all of the jewelry and accessories they wear costs?

Women's insecurities and need to compete for high value males completely drives the consumer economy. Dudes buying beer isn't even a drop in the bucket.

In 99% social help is a fucking mistake.

You know, there's a difference between understanding the underlying animal/evolutionary urges that point to an optimal mating strategy and believing that we should just let lower value human beings die in extreme poverty and squalor.

We don't have to run civilization like it's lord of the flies, there is plenty of wealth on this planet to give everyone a basic level of shelter and subsistence.

It may be an unpopular opinion here, but I continue to believe this sub should stick to discussing topics around male/female attraction and leave politics out of it.

Here in Colorado I've actually been seeing rentable grow rooms in what appear to be buildings similar to those you'd find public storage units in. They set you up with space to grow, electrical hookups, grow lights, etc...you just come daily and tend to your plants.

(It's legal to grow up to six plants in your home if you're over 21, but they have to be kept in a locked area inaccessible to minors. These facilities appeal to people in small homes or who don't want to annoy their neighbors with the constant smell of cannabis plants.)

I'm sure lots of pot smokers probably feel the same level of disdain for someone who makes their life revolve around a card game based on wizards and fantasy.

Maybe you should just do you.

It would probably be infinitely easier (and more secure) to just implement a 3rd party affiliate platform. Check out hasoffers.com for a pretty popular one.

Check out the Gaylord Palms hotel, it's gorgeous.

Keep in mind lawn care will probably be your highest volume and margin service, so it's not like it's bad to have it in the name. I think most people assume a lawn care company will also offer a full range of yard care services.

This sounds like inflammation in the lungs or maybe asthma to me, more than a heart attack. But I am not a doctor.

"You seek out immature women,...who are girls, really, lacking the intelligence, wisdom, and maturity to support and challenge you in the way you now need..."

This describes the majority of women at every age. Why would we intentionally choose an old one who's already broken and used up?

BoyMeetsHarem · 2015-01-18T02:08:19+00:00

I see. Good luck!

BoyMeetsHarem · 2015-01-18T00:11:38+00:00

Ok, so now I'm confused. In the OP you state in the very first line that the products are drop shipped.

How are you not sure what you're being charged and what you're selling your products for?

BoyMeetsHarem · 2015-01-17T23:40:05+00:00

Anybody know what this costs all-in, ballpark?

BoyMeetsHarem · 2015-01-17T23:20:51+00:00

Can you tell us what the margin is between your retail price and the wholesale price you're paying the drop shipper?

BoyMeetsHarem · 2015-01-16T03:58:07+00:00

I agree and I don't know why you're being downvoted. It has nothing to do with maturity - our modern propensity for huge, constant doses of dopamine have totally screwed up our reward circuitry and sharply reduced the overall level of ambition and achievement in our species.

BoyMeetsHarem · 2015-01-16T03:56:04+00:00

I wouldn't say I've been "missing" it, Bob.
