I am in my late 20s and feel I have wasted a lot of time. Is it too late for me to achieve something worthwhile?
When I turned 27 I was:Unemployed, had been for a yearSleeping on a friend's couchPainfully singleWondering if it was too lateI had:No hard skillsNo work experience worth repeatingCollege grades that didn't open grad school doors I wanted to walk throughScant motivationNo directionI asked my dad for advice and he said: "You can't steer a parked car."I stopped thinking about what to do and started doing. I refocused my search on small growing companies and after a dozen rejections I applied for a customer service job at a company I'd never heard of but that seemed interesting. A week later I was working at Bonobos (company) with 25 smart, fun, engaging people. I chipped in on work in different departments and eventually found an application for my natural skills in a career path I hadn't anticipated. At 29 I'm a beginner in a new role. It's fantastic.I can only recommend what I've done: Find some fertile ground. You'll figure the rest out later. There are tons of young companies looking for people who are energetic and capable, but most importantly they're looking for people who care. Startups require hard work and long hours but if you care about the mission and the quality of your work it'll feel more like a lifestyle than a job.You only have to be lucky once. I was. Maybe you will be too. There's only one way to find out: Take the car out of park and step on the gas.
What's your opinion on Michael Jackson? Why?
A talent machine. A good PR/media manipulator (in the past) and someone who just “did fame” almost better than anyone has ever. Yes, fame probably hurt him in the end, but he was so untouchable for many years(80s) larger than life.IMOI am not a fan of his personal life, and some of his choices have left me a bit cold. Music wise, I only listen to him up to the late 80s. I do not care so much for his stuff afterward (quincy jones was a dream for MJ to have as producer) Also, I just found it harder and harder to like the music and to be really honest I can only watch him live or videos up to the mid-late 80s, after that I am not a huge fan of his looks. I know that should not matter, but he did start to seem more and more off to me by than.That is just me though.If he had stayed a tad more grounded or he would have found someone (woman, or man) to have a love relationship with, I am sure he would have been a happier person..He was always dealing with a very odd and twisted past.When I found out he was abusing drugs (which I will never fault him or anyone for) I was really shocked. Remember in the 80s he was thought of by the press and public as so goody goody that he did not have sex, drink or drug, heck he would not even say the words Damn or FUNKY..Until Jones took days to talk him into it.I was alive in the early 80s and I recall how much the world really was enchanted by him at that time. But only a few short years later and he was basically despised here in the usa..I always liked his music and dance..But that is where it kinda ends for me at least..I cannot say I ever met the man, but he always came off as very lonely and needy to me..Which is to be expected, he had no street smarts, not really even basic education and he had no life coping skills due to his upbringing, his money and fame made it so he would never really have to learn the skills. I also think he may have had some real social skills issues (as in not understanding social cues)At times he made such big mistakes in a lot of ways he was his own worst enemy. I am a big enough fan that I do wish he could have gotten help a very long time ago..I do not pity MJ as in the end he made his own choices and it was his life to lose or live.Danielle
Is Amitabh Bachchan the biggest womanizer in Bollywood, and no one dares to speak against him because of his connections and reputation?
No ones the truth. But here are some rumors I have heardThe biggest womanizer in Bollywood as per my knowledge is Salman Khan. While he has helped many celebs launch their careers, he can’t resist the temptation to sleep with some of his mentees(source: Blind Item(Mumbai Mirror) - Being Mentor - 24th April). Our sources who have houses close to farm house in Panvel have very colorful stories to narrate about his conquests at his Panvel farmhouse. Ofcourse no one knows eaxctly what he does inside his bedroom. So it is up to you if you want to believe it.Speaking of Amitabh, one source who works in the hotel industry had confirmed that Amitabh was with Rekha at one of the branches of a famous hotel chain(which has properties in India) abroad a few years back. While they barely acknowledge each other in public, truth is they are very much together. That explains why Aishwarya once referred to Rekha as Maa.Despite being married to Jaya, Amitabh is rumored to have had several extra marital affairs. In the early years of his marriage he was linked up with Parveen Babi, Zeenat Aman & Rekha.He is rumored to have a room booked every week at a famous hotel chain which is walking distance from his home(he stayed in one of the properties of the same hotel chain abroad with Rekha). He is known to entertain random women there regularly.There were rumors some years back that he had an affair with Amrita Singh in the 90’s. Saif physically abused the reporter who published this. Amitabh is alleged to have spanked Amrita at a party, when Saif was very much around. Saif apparently said or did nothing for the sake of their careers.There of course is the very dirty rumor between Amitabh & a family member. We rather not get into the details on this one.While there are rumors of Amitabh’s womanizing, one cannot deny that he is an acting powerhouse. He is very dedicated to his craft & is a thorough professional. He is never late on sets despite his superstardom & always gives his 100%. Please remember he is the bigggest Bollywood star ever, but is never in the news for throwing starry tantrums. What he does in his personal life is between him & his family. After all if the most beautiful women in the country were trying to bed you & are always trying to seduce you, would you truly able to resist the temptation? If yes, then for how long? People who ask themselves this question before judging him.
Bob Dylan or Ice Cube...?
Now this question is a bit more reasonable! Ok,its an apples and oranges question because both are 2 different genres! Both were very innovative in their genres of music,Cube not so much anymore ever since he started making these family friendly comedies! Sorry to me its a bit of a stretch seeing a guy who once did songs like F*** the Police,Dopeman,The Ni**a You Love To Hate,Get Off My D*ck and Tell Your B*tch To Come Here,or The Wrong N*gga To F*ck With,as well as a movie like Boyz In The Hood now doing movies like Are We There Yet or Are We Done Yet.
Please please answer its the last one!?
stop it
