If you're self-employed and a good businessperson, it's possible to build a business to the point where you see over $1 million in income per year. That isn't very common, however.

Partners at big-name management consulting firms (e.g. McKinsey, Bain, BCG) can pull in more than a million dollars per year. It can take many years to make it to partner, however, and only about 1 in 5 of entering associates make it that high.

Some smaller consulting firms have partners who pull in seven figures, and I know at least two solo consultants who make that much. Check out Alan Weiss's book "Million Dollar Consulting" for information about how to start a solo practice that can be built to that level.

The most reliable source of big money that I know of is working in finance. Investment bankers and traders who are good can often see very high paychecks very early in their careers. The competition is intense for those jobs, however, especially since hundreds of them got laid off in the market collapse of 2008.

Any sort of broker job where you get paid as a percentage of the value someone else has created has the potential to make big money with relatively little work. Just find ways to get yourself attached to large transactions. Sales, real estate brokers, and securities trading all fit this bill. I once met a man who decided to retire early. He was a great salesman, he looked around and decided that the biggest ticket item he could sell was an airplane. He sold one, pocketed the commission (well over a million dollars) and retired.

How do i get my fiancee to trust me after hitting her? Advice? By Brian H.

I am 31 and was with my ex fiancee for 7 years engaged for 4, we broke up almost 2yrs ago, she is 27 and the mother to my 5 year old son. I suffered from a really bad drug addiction just after i met her but she stood by me even though she kept telling me i needed help but i told her i didn't have a problem with drugs, she had a problem with me taking drugs. I love her so much and cant believe how i ruined the best thing that ever happened to me. When i was heavily drugged up she had a go at me for using while i was minding our son alone in the house and was shouting at me, the only thing i wanted to do was shut her up and i punched her in the face, i ended up bursting her lip and freaked out, when i tried to see if she was ok she pushed me away and told me she cant do this anymore, she ended up moving out and wouldn't let me see our son for 3 months because she didn't trust me with him. I couldn't sleep proper at night thinking of what i done and how i hurt the woman i love and was punching walls with frustration of knowing i hurt her and couldn't see my son, i decided i needed help badly, i have been clean for over a year now and have my son 3 days a week alone. I need her back in my life but she never really wants to see me only to tell me about our kid, its breaking my heart. My friend told me that his girlfriend, who is a friend of hers, told her that she is still in love with me but is afraid of me and what i done. Any advice on this?

Your Answer:

Time is really the only thing that can take care of the situation. You need to simply tell her you were high when this happened and you've been clean for a good amount of time. You need to relax and stop worrying about this so much. Simply tell her how you feel and let the past go. At least that part of it. Telling her it will not happen again will do little good; however, the more time that passes and you stay on the good foot, she will be yours again. Tell her, then let "time," do its magic. GOOD LUCK!!

Why don't people realize that meat eating is the reason for world hunger? from the scarecrow

World Hunger has nothing to do with us killing animals for food. As a matter of fact, people need meat to be healthy. And as an additional fact, Humans breed animals just for food. Being a strict non meat eater is so, so, so unhealthy. GO BEEF!!!!

why can't I get him out of my head? Does he like me? what? by Yaquasia

Does he like you is not your question. Rather your question should be if you like him. And if you do like him you can have him. It is up to you, if you want to be with him or get to know him better, then do it. Get him!!

Has anyone ever died smoking weed? by Monica

NO ONE HAS EVER, OR WILL EVER DIE FROM SMOKING WEED. You may die from something else, WHILE smoking weed. Contrary to popular believe, Marijuana DOES NOT kill brain cells, it DOES NOT destroy organs. THC is the chemical in weed that makes you get the feeling, it has NO negative side effects. Its the only chemical used by the body. Everything else is exhaled. People believe it makes you not think as well, this is simply untrue. People have killed people and killed themselves while high, but this has nothing to do with being high. They would have killed the person or themselves even if they werent high. It does NOT impair the brains ability to do...anything. The people that have killed themselves under the influence of Marijuana, is only because Marijuana makes you feel happy. Many people that commit suicide are depressed, so they smoke weed so they might get happier. Sometimes it helps, and the person rethinks their decision. Sometimes it doesn't...sometimes they dont smoke strong enough, or enough to get "happy enough" not to kill themselves. Marijuana has nothing to do with it. There are ONLY...I MEAN ONLY 2 reasons why Marijuana is outlawed....


1. Just like Moonshine, the United States would not be able to collect taxes on it, for it can be grown virtually anywhere unlike tobacco. Yet there is one company permitted to make moonshine and sell it, they do have to pay taxes on it and they cannot make it more than 50% alcohol.

2. In the early 1900's, Mexicans would come in the united states. Many of them so they could sell their Marijuana easier. This caused violence...fights over sales, robbing sellers, etc. Some guy (I cannot recall his name) didn't like this. So he tried to outlaw it, but he couldn't because it was not "dangerous" enough. The government had nothing against it that would need it to be outlawed. He Started talking about the taxes. The government was listening yet still wasn't very concerned. In the 1930's he started making movies about Marijuana. These movies disgust me. One had a kid in it...He was smoking marijuana. One day he was talking to his mom and his mother saw a joint fall out of his pocket. His mother went to bend down to pick it up, he picked up a knife and stabbed and killed his mother...At the end of the video it was said the only reason he killed his mother is because of the marijuana influenced him. This is ignorant. There are 5-10 movies like this.

You may say...people have died at an early age that are infamous for smoking weed. This is true...but is it ever from smoking weed? no. Most of the time it has to do with alcohol and prescription drug overdose.


To say that Marijuana causes cancers like cigarettes is just plain ignorance. It DOES NOT cause lung cancer. Marijuana smoke does not polute the air...lets give an example. Lets say Marijuana is a big diesel truck, and Tobacco is a small ford. You lock yourself in a garage with the ford running and breath the carbon monoxide, your dead..However, if you do the same with a diesel truck, you would not die.

Marijuana is actually good for you. It cures Glaucoma. It helps with Depression. If you have an eating disorder suck as Anorexia, it will help also, as it makes you a little hungrier. Have trouble sleeping? well It makes you a little sleepy also, but not to a point where you HAVE to sleep. Many people say "oh..well..if your driving a car while under the influence, you will fall asleep and crash" this is simply untrue. You will not fall asleep any easier than you would normally, unless you wanted to. The people that do usually have to sleep really bad anyway. It will not MAKE you go to sleep. It does NOT IN ANY WAY impair your vision, or make it more difficult to drive.

I have friends that say Marijuana saved their lives. One of my friends were going to kill himself. He was very depressed. He was against Marijuana though. I told him to try it before and he said no because he thought it would kill him sooner, but seeing as how he was about to kill himself, he wanted to at least try it before he did. So he did and he got happier and didn't kill himself. He is not depressed anymore.

I'm 13 and i was raped and i don't know how to deal with it....

you really just need to relax and there is a trick that may help you. Start telling yourself that you are happy and have a very complete perfect life, even if now that may not be the situation. You are a creator and that is probably something you haven't heard before. Stop thinking depression, stop seeing your doctor, stop asking questions about depression.
Start thinking about being happy and you will create happiness.  Most people have been violated in one way or the other. Concentrate on being a happy, resourceful young woman and forgive the creep who violated you and then say to yourself, " I have the best life possible and everything in life is great."  And believe it or not, this is what will happen.  



If this 13 year old was much older I would have told her to get some weed and moonshine.  Or the bud above this article.
