Since 1926, the S&P 500 has averaged a 12% return annually. So that’s the “market” you desire to “beat.” If you were very educated abou...

You know, the kind where your self-esteem gets shredded and you get the feeling she objects to the fact that you are on this planet. And like other wretched men, I searched online for anything, anything that would help me get out of the pain. I finally had to admit that the advice I found-even from professionals-was inadequate and I was in this alone. Then I found it. Deep inside. The way to end the pain. It worked, and it worked big time. Some sources say it will take 18 months to get over your breakup. Not me. I don’t have that kind of time to waste. So I dug deep, and figured it out.
