  • Pro tip, if you are around someone with hiccups and you want to help them out, wait for their next hiccup, then immediately after offer them $10 (or anything you can provide as incentive) if they can hiccup one more time. Something about wanting it makes it stop.

    Unfortunately, this probably won’t work on you anymore once you’ve read this, so sorry about that. And it only works on the unknowing a few times before they become immune, but it’s a neat trick that they will appreciate it when it works!











  • Better yet, get a credit card that earns rewards and treat it like a bill that must be paid each month. I have a Citi double cash card that’s 2% rewards for all purchases that I use to pay for almost everything. I also have a citi custom cash card that we use for food exclusively, which is like 5% rewards for the most spent category. I keep upping the limit of both at every opportunity to try and keep spending below 10% monthly. Combined they generate at least 2k a year and I have a near 800 credit score and it’s no different than using cash if you are responsible. Free money.





  • I was lucky in that the ffxi US beta was my first dive into an MMO. And I think it’s one of the best games ever, but the harsh reality is that it’s hard and tedious, especially for folks who only have experience with super hand holdy MMOs like they mostly are today. If you can get into it, it can be like crack, but I really feel like most people won’t have the patience for it these days.

    This isn’t me saying don’t try it. Try it for sure. Just be ready for a huge time sink. It doesn’t help you at all.
