Many computers in the 80s and early 90s were made in US.<br/>
<br/>
you could also ditch the computer altogether.<br/>
<br/>
We lived without computers for decades. Internet is only 15 years old. We did without before, it is not a necessity of life. It all depends on how strong ...

<r>No, no hope for high return of investment. However I would be pissed to sell somehting for far less than it is worth...<br/>
However it seems that the collection is not worth that much. (or even anything at all... bumemr...)<br/>
Sports cards were mentionned on the simple dollar today:<br/>

I am bald

<t>I am trying to simplify my life and as such I am slowly getting rid of some stuff. As a kid I got into a sports card frenzy and bought a lot of them. I now have 1 medium sized box of cards that I have been shuffling around for far too many years. I don't even want to think about how much money I ...

Wow!

<t>And how is a private school better? You goal is to study art no?<br/>
<br/>
I assumed because of this ""I'm kind of scared that, if I don't get out now, I never will-"" I also doubt that you can base your life from what you've experienced as a 6 to 11 years old child. <br/>
As for your last ...

<t>I am not sure why I am the only one catching up on this but it seems to me that you do not want to go to art school. There are dozen of art schools all over the country and elsewere where you could "study art" for Waaaaaayyyy less money.<br/>
I call the "I am city person" excuse baloney because 1 ...

<t>alex Oliver Why not???<br/>
<br/>
You said that<br/>
<br/>
<<But I really, really, really want to go to art school. I spend most of my day drawing (or reading). I've been taking art classes since they started being offered. It excites me like nothing else....<<<<<br/>
With this plan, you can go ...

<t>I wouldn't do it.<br/>
<br/>
you should aim for a lower ranking university in a state with a cheaper cost of living...<br/>

What are the best blogs out there about investing/passive income generation?

<t>I read a lot of pf book which all seems to center on how to reduce expense, inspiration and very (very) general idea about investing max your 401K etc... Nobody ever goes in the specifics of investing. How do you actually invest? Where do you find mutual funds? Do you pruchase them at a bank? How ...

<r>@photoguy I would think that people don't chose sweat shops because there are great places to work. There is simply no better alternative or even no alternative at all. Many coutrymen are drawn to cities with the promise of a better life which never materialize and then get stuck and can not get ...

<t>@photoguy To me international trade is a modern form of slavery. <br/>
The Canadian guy blog is biased.. He says that he would only buy not made in Canada thing if he can not find a canadian made equivalent. If he was really serious in his project he will do without. He is also phasing his ...

<r>Maybe I misunderstood something but I thought that the earn1k course was free. His pitch said: <Earn Your First $1,000 – And More. Starting With This Free Tool>. That's on the front page of <URL url="http://earn1k.com/">http://earn1k.com/</URL>.<br/>
Where does the 1400$ come from?<br/>
