Who Moved My CHeese is the dumbest shit ever. prolly took the writer a good 20 minutes to write and then he/she made millions. you could finish it while taking a dump.
the only good work-inspirational book for me was The Greatest Salesman in the World (Parts I and II).

I actually took Who Moved My Cheese to be a transparent attempt to make the proletariat take the bourgeoise's bullshit without complaining, and then asking for another bowlful.
but then I do see most things in terms of struggle against oppression.

The Greatest Salesman in the World (Parts I and II), okay will check out.
oh yeah i just remembered the best part about all this: the biggest markets in SoCal right now are in the desert so i'll have to be heading out there on a regular basis, blasting Kyuss all the while, OH DARN.
ohhhhhhhh yeah, heating bill. shit, my gas/heating/stove/whatever bill is like $8 a month, i suppose that would change if i go up north?

depends. do you mind the cold? and do you own warm clothes? My parents pay about $80 a month for heating in the winter, but we have an ultra-efficient natural gas furnace (NG = CHEAP), though my parents do like it warm, i'm quite happy to bundle up and live under a blanket where its cozy... i can be $200+ if you have electric or oil.
Stove = electrical, not that bad.
Best part of a cold house.. i can buy cheap stuff for my computer and overclock the fuck out of it.. save $$s (winter = rain rain rain = computer/video games neccesary, summer = outside wins)

Sun Tzu's "The Art of War" should also be mandatory reading.
But based on some of the intelligent responses (sic) in this thread, mmm, forget it.

I think it makes a good deal of sense to meet with a financial planner. The money you save early on, is the money that compounds most frequently, and it will serve as the core of your retirement fund. Try to find a planner who has a wide portfolio to draw from, so he doesn't force your money into the limited portfilio he has to draw from.once I was NAD said:so yeah, are there any books, websites, or other crap i should check out? i never thought i would be this dude, but i'm okay with it.
The other thing that you should do, is put 12% into your 401K. It's a total no-brainer.

I only put 6% into my 401K, because that's all that Monster will match, and quite simply, I don't have the extra cash to part with any more out of each paycheck. Wish I could though.

Be still, O wand'rer!
Wait, NAD - are you asking about what to do with your extra income? Or how to grow your business by 25%?
Either way, this is ALL you'll ever need. Trust me:
It's the bible man, the f'ing bible.
