there are too many beautiful women that like you in this world to occupy yourself with the beautiful women that don't like you. You can quote me on that.
Have a quotastic day! You can quote me on that too.
I'm independently lazy! another way of saying independently wealthy.
Did you ever hear of destiny by soap?
Well my brother set up an account on the internet 6 years ago and finally actually got his first response to it. He was surprised and delighted and didn't even remember writing it. So I said to him that it must have been floating in the internet ether for all that time and came washed ashore along with the the tide laundry detergent. You never know what the laundry detergent will bring in....
Destiny by soap.
Found electroma on youtube yesterday and watched it and the legend was seen for the first time. Also gave a girl a song to look up today since it sounded almost like it was singing shananana nana nana when actually the song is nananana nana nana and her name is shanay. Apparently has 2 kids or something and is extremely bad at communicating. On the bright side though it's like talking to a kid who's seeing everything fro the first time and te sense of wonder and fun and happiness. After laughing and smiling at everything I was saying all day she had some coupons and was saying she was trying to decide if she needed then and showed me one and asked if I ever used them and got toaster pastries? And I said I never use them, I don't care about money.... I don't need money." Then she responded "why wouldn't you want money?" I said, Life is more exciting without having money, if your some rich guy or something then everything is done for you." then I walked away to do my job because I'm not good in large doses, you could probably overdose on me because I'm so different than everybody else anybody ever meets. But I like the overnight girl Tiffany the most out of anybody around in florida because she's a survivor like me, but still really nice and good looking and laughs at what I say. I might have to become a heart breaker and sever ties at some point spontaneously and abruptly, I hope it doesn't make someone too sad, But you have to be with who you like and someone who likes you, life is too short. right now listening to "daft punk- prime time of your life".... only 84 out of 5000 disliked it.
Currently my exercise plan is, upper body for an hour one day, HIIT cardio for 20 minutes, or long distance bikeride, or walking around a new town that has low crime and good view for a few hours. then the next day do lower body for 45 minutes(all exercises on upper body and lower body are in order to have energy for each muscle group to get a full work out). The next day do cardio again, the next day do upper body again.... and repeat this indefinitely. SOmetimes I overdo it and walk to work now then walk all day at work. if I feel to tired to exercise then I skip it and do something else and I always do what I feel like doing and do my favorite types of exercises for each muscle group and I do 1-2 extra exercises than I'm supposed to for the shoulders and abs because I like those best.
Upper:
1.chest 2 exercises
2.shoulders 3-4 exercises till reach 10
3.back. close grip chin and one arm row are supposed to be best and are working wonders.
4. Bi 2 exercises but getting tired to may do only 3 sets of each or less
5. tri 2 exercise, but if time constraints get in the way or I'm just done and want to go I only do 1 exercise.
leg day:
1. Abs 3 exercises of side and oblique and center
2.leg ext. 2 exercises
3. leg curl 2 exercises
4. calves maybe only 3-4 sets or skip the exercise all together because my calves get enough from walking a lot.
For one muscle group 2 exercises the first exercise is favorite or target the second is only for 12 reps or until exhaustion or in other words your 10.
First exercise, first set 12 reps; second set 10 reps; 3rd set 8 reps; 4th set 6 reps. second exercise 12 reps
I hold for around 1 second at the top and try to stretch at the bottom or between exercises for the positive and negative.
I find that I get just as good of results without any creatine but I still do good tasting protein shakes right after the exercising for a meal to tide me over till a real meal. and I also drink a glass of milk before bed and water right when I wake up.
Diet, since I've given up on the meaning of my life ever being fulfilled, I've just finally decided that sometimes you just have to finally do stuff, This has taken forever because you have to finally take yourself out of the equation and be in the right midset. So I may actually do it this time and for the past 4 days I've stuck to a 100 grams of carbs a day diet, and ranging between 1600 and 2200 cal per day of food whenever I want to eat. usually it's burgers or teryaki chicken, or canned nuts for in between meal snacks. the meal and snack times are random and I only eat what I want to eat whenever I'm actually hungry.
Someone may be wondering what's going on with my blog?????????? Well this is now going to be a journal since I'm ending doing facebook since I don't want to tell anyone about my life since they never beleive me and never want to hang out to find out how true my life actually is. I will do great things and advertise it by showing not telling.

How the world should be run
How the world should be run
The following starts as an idea of things to come then goes into what's wrong with the world, and finally concludes with, how the world should be run.
-----------------
Things to come:
Tv is the most powerful multimedia device ever invented yet we never have even thought to use it as an education device. It would be free education and the best and improvable and able to be edited.
College should not be subsidised which actually instead of making it cheaper somehow makes it more expensive.
What's wrong with the world:
As a society our education has been sliding downhill. The people of the depression knew tons and could take care of themselves without money and had skills in every field, then the next generation had it easier and started living high on the hog in the good post war economy and now the modern generation X knows hardly anything from having almost everything done for them and also lack of good education or ability to afford it. and the next generation has it even worse to the point that lots of people I know are saying that they would not want to bring kids into the current world that we're in.
The world has been getting worse because we've been discovering more math and science in how to control people and things. Ever since they spelled out the laws of probability in the 1600's things started going down hill because that was the beginning of being able to control people without them even knowing it. The stock market, the elections, the casinos, and almost everything runs off of math and probability and is ruining your life and you don't even know it!
Whenever things change it always turns out for the worse because the math always changes for the worse. In the old days we got time and a half on sundays, now just a dollar extra an hour. In the old days we got percentage raises. Now not only just fixed rate rases which means after 20 years you'll still only get a 40 cent raise on $15 an hour. But the raises have gone from 60 cents an hour down to 40 cents an hour max. And instead of having full time. Now nobody hires full time and you have to work 2 jobs and get 2 incomes to make ends meet(this was all caused by government regulations). It used to be only the man worked and only needed one income. Now women started working and you needed 2 incomes to stay afloat. Now we both need 2 jobs so we need 4 incomes to stay afloat. And don't get me started on how corrupt pensions are and how they never work because of that and are one of the worst business ideas ever.
If you look at the math if you have a phone a simple little electronic device you keep in your pocket to talk to people. Well you'll be paying for it the rest of your life by your monthly phone bill. That math makes absolutely no sense to me and shouldn't for a such a simple small item that all it really is is a 2 way radio.
They did the math on how much it costs to own a car from maintenance and gas and payments and insurance and accidents and distance driven and time taken and everything and found out that it actually cost about the same amount in hours worked at a job as the time taken to walk at a pace of 3 miles an hour. Which sort of means that working to own a car is actually pointless.
That's not the only problem, our fiat currency is just a ticking time bomb. That's actually the definition of any currency is...ticking time bomb because they're made to hyper inflate over time and that is their function so some day and it IS inevitable, the dollar WILL fail no matter what.
They say that inflation is on average 3 percent a year, but what is inflation? All that inflation is is the government printing money. If you have more dollars but the same amount of goods and services then that's called inflation. It's a tax on you and everyone else that you don't even know about. It's a tax on everything. Almost as bad as a sir tax which is a tax on a tax. And the funniest thing I've heard lately is that in may of 2012 you'll have to pay $5 a month just to own money from bank of America customers. Even writing a check costs the money of the check itself. Supposedly the banks only make money off of fees and charges and gimmicks now because they're not alowed to make money off of loaning people money anymore because of the new extreme regulations put on them and inflicted by the government all because of the housing market crash. Just like they over regulated airlines because of terrorists. But the ironic thing is they the government caused the housing crash themselves by giving out zero percent finance deals to bad deals that couldn't afford the houses down payment or the house itself to begin with. Which makes you wonder if everything is set up sometimes.
I can prove that it is set up sometimes because remember the tomato crisis of a couple years ago of the ecoli contaminated tomatoes. They actually never were contaminated to begin with which they found out after the entire tomatoe industry was totally obliterated. So when those farms went out of business somebody bought them. And it wasn't you or me. they come out with these new food crisis' a few times every year this year it was strawberries earlier and now a little known cantelope disease that killed about 5 people altogether who had allergies. So some of those companies will go under and be taken over for no reason. Talk about making a mountain out of a mole hill. I actually have termed it accidental crime. Causing actual damage and suffering on accident and then taking back what you said later. Like that second 100 mile long oil slick that was in the gulf that never actually existed.
I know for a fact that you and I are smarter and better than ever person in power living today for one simple reason. That they are after power. I am of the mind set that why would you want complete and total control over something that is worthless. Sure you have TV and a mansion and a helicopter. But why not have better technology and explore space and devolop teleportation or hyper thinking or brain downloads or holodecks or even just live in a nice world with actual friends and nice people???? Why rule over something that has no value and stay in the dark ages. If you actually have a brain and see what is possible and how we are the most successful and intelligent and awesome species in the known universe and to waste that by keeping people from actually being human, then you've got to be completely mentally retarded to want power. That's how I know I'm above them, or that they have an alterior motive that may not even be their own.
Laissez faire or leave us alone is true on many levels. First of all in capitalism when there is no impedance then people will thrive. If all businesses had no overhead then technically all businesses would be profitable. So no taxes or regulation or law would make an economy the best ever. But also on another level I believe leaving people alone to their own devices they thrive as people, because it's natural for you and I if we can do whatever we want whenever we want to improve our own lives and to learn new things. So we will build on our own lives instead of doing absolutely nothing and being bored. So I content that people who do whatever they want to all the time are actually on average a lot smarter than people who have a job they don't like that takes up all of their time. This would also be true in how to raise a child, because you can force a kid to take violin lessons but that doesn't mean they'll be good at it. So support what they like and let them wander off and explore and they'll most likely become a genius at whatever they like most.
I was at a museum and saw some old flasks and cosmetic containers form B.C. era and saw theat the types of glass and craftsmanship were some of the best I'd ever seen even in modern times because back then people were craftsman and had to be the best of the best to be able to sell their product. Also back then there was less supply and more demand and when you were the only one with that craft in a small town then you'd definitely get paid for your work. But now, first of all nobody crafts anymore or knows anything. The craftiest person I've seen lately can make badges out of bottle caps and a magnet(who cares)???? But now there is also less demand and over supply an also a world of competitors when selling online to have to be better than in price or quality. Also there are hardly any jobs these days either so people will take the crappiest lowest paying jobs and be happy with it. So we both have no money to buy things anymore and the market is flooded and also the highest competition ever in our inficities, the cities that go on forever with infinite businesses selling the same thing.
How the world should be run:
Have a communicator that only pay for once. It's called a radio and can be directional to not lose signal strength.
Have education on TV for free and have it all college level and 100% accurate since that's possible with editing.
Do not tax or regulate or even have government for that matter if at all possible like the Amish Mennonites.
There is no stealing if you make your own stuff and everybody has the same stuff like the Amish.
Let people do whatever they want as kids and adults, and have a craft so that you don't work crappy jobs all day long everyday because of the overloaded market and low demand. Let people own land and own all of their "own stuff".
Have gold or other metal as currency, not paper.
Know reality and how to take care of yourself even without a job like the great depression.
Don't have baby food and clothes so high that the biggest expense in life is a baby. you should be able to have kids without it ruining future finances. All other animals can. The man should have the only income again and be able to decide where to move because of need for his talents in a town. And the woman can take care of the kids.
Have fruit and nut trees everywhere for free food if needed. Maybe Johnny apple seed had a good idea after all.
Have space and don't have high traffic in dense cities. Everybody has less stress when they don't get pissed off waiting 5 minutes to make a turn onto a street at a 4 way stop because of traffic.
Do not have your life on the internet or pay an internet bill or have to also pay for a working computer just to stay afloat online. This should be a secondary part of life and cost nothing, not primary and be a bill forever.
Have small towns so that first of all your services are in demand, second you ride a bike and don't need a car or car insurance or gas or license or registration, or have to pay tickets, and third more space and less stress, and forth owning land to grow food on to not need a store, and fifth the man decides to move to a town that needs his skills with the wife tagging along without a job.
With less work to do because you get paid more and are in demand then you also get more time and don't have an over crowded schedule, and have time to learn more at your skill and be the best around. Not many appointments and not much to think about except what want to.

Macrocosm
If you think of the big picture everything is fine, in fact perfect... In the Macrocosm.
.........
Our planet is a closed system and has been for the last billion or so years. You can destroy the present state with garbage but really only the tiniest fraction of the surface and we still can't make a real impact. Even if you decided to travel the world, go in a strait line and never stop, you'd be traveling for the rest of your life and still wouldn't have seen or learned everything.
A satellite is falling to earth right now and was in the news but only had a 1 in 3,600 chance of hitting anything or anyone. And that's if it hit land and our planet is around 70% ocean. Even asteroids have such large intergalactic speed compared to the earths orbital speed that just the sheer kinetic energy is as much as a nuclear bomb.
1 million dollars is nothing compared to the entire world economy. Yes you could pay people to do your bidding at 10$ an hour for 10,000 hours(that's 40 hours a week for 5 years), or make successful businesses and prosper, but still it would not make any difference to the world as a whole what you did with that money. Even if millions of people died in some kind of natural disaster, it's just another day in the life of the planet earth. That wouldn't even be as bad as any of the mass extinctions throughout the earths history. Just it's normal cycles.
We may consider our lives extremely crappy at times and get depressed and bored and feel sick or tired but in the big picture we are only one person out of billions, So instead of focusing on your tiny apartment or just your lame city think outside of that box that confines you. So in a sense if you just humbled yourself a little bit and stopped thinking about your personal microcosm, then a little pain or discomfort is nothing at all, compared to the big picture. You need to stand out and be larger than life if you want to compete with the size and grandeur of the world or universe. Lets say you managed a little discomfort and did 30 minutes of exercise a day and ate as little as animals eat. This would make you stand out like a sore thumb in a crowd, and you'd probably feel like you could take on the world too, all for just a tiny bit of discomfort.
You may be concerned about your job but in the big picture you can get another job anywhere in the world even if you're a criminal or suck at everything. In fact it was Gordon Ramsey the famous chef that is now worth over a billion, that said to young aspiring chefs, that you should step outside of your comfort zone, learn a new language, go to new places and see new things, in order to build character because it breeds confidence. Anyways you should be doing something you love doing. If it's a hobby you'll naturally get more practice at it and be better at it. You may even be a savant at something that you didn't know you could do, if you just try doing new things you've never done before. Our brains and hands are multipurpose, and not meant to be wasted.
There are lots of things you don't know, but what if you learned more. Knew more about things then your view of the world would be bigger and you brain used to more of an extent. There is more to know then you can ever know. Our total IQ is probably comparable to the size of a tea cup in an ocean of knowledge. Unless you are a Reductionist and are able to somehow sum up everything in some extremely simple and elegant formula.
All animals are different too and we can learn a lot from them by looking outside of our suburban mindset. Birds in the sky don't bring food with them when they go miles up n the air, and then start to float away. They aren't skinny because they do a lot of exercise, most animals just don't have as much food available to eat as humans. This is obvious when they fight over scraps when you feed them. But they are also humble enough even with such a simple boring life to not go crazy, or complain, or worry.

Survivology
Name: Arthur L
Age:28
Location: New Port Richey Fl
Occupation: Artist
My list of priorities:
1. EDC kit
2. Survival kit backpack
3. My notebooks of my research
4. Extra tools
5. Sentimental items
6. Reference books
7. The 1 most valuable thing in the house
8. Plan "B"
For what I would carry if my house was burning down:
I'm into survivalism and am pretty much prepaired for everything. First of all, I do not want to live in a wood house or anything with the high risk of burning down, or high crime or any other high risk.
1. If nothing else and I only had seconds to escape. I have my EDC kit or every day carry which is all I personally need. Which is a surge multitool with a flint magnesium fire starter. Along with my wallet and keys and a pen and internet phone, which may or may not become moot.
2. Extra things I would try to get before escaping if at all possible, would be my backpack emergency kit filled with camping survivalist essentials to make life easy as first priority. This has everything needed to make Shelter/fire/water/food/medical/hygiene/tools/navigation/signaling. It has a folding saw, steel water bottle, tent hammock, rope, knives, sharpeners, crank lights, fresnel lens, firesteel, fishing stuff, snacks, TP, book on edible medicinal plants, notes on traps and knots, etc. But really all of this is just extra for comfort.
3, and 4. I have important information I've written in notebooks, but I'm currently putting more and more of my notes and research on the internet through blogs and video sites like youtube, so I shouldn't ever have to carry that. So instead second priority would be extra tools. If expensive and hard to find.
5, and 6: Sentimental items like pictures and memories of the past, and the best reference books from my library. But that also I should start putting on the internet along with my video library and just make a list of the books I have to buy later.
Supposedly if I lost all my paper work and files I'd be screwed but really if your life is so literally controlled by paperwork and it all came down to that??? Then I'd just leave the city and this ridiculous bureaucracy forever. There are more things to life than having constant stress and working for the man. No, I'm not one of those rich people who buys a house in California and coincidentally buys very high insurance on it right before the convenient forest fire.
8. I have lots of valuable things but I also don't need money because I can survive without it, and I like doing things for myself. So that would be the last priority and I'd probably pick the one most expensive thing in the house. I also could make, money anywhere as an artist. I'd make sure everybody else is safe before saving myself. Then after all the ash is settled I'd make way for my plan "B". Go to my self built cabin somewhere in my undisclosed location without taxes(or build it, if I hadn't already by then, this would be the perfect excuse!) but that would be my final destination.
In the end, I'm an independent individual, and a free thinker, and I have sentimentality but I don't let it rule my life, so if "shtf" and the fire was caused by some other reason than just bad house construction then I'd be ready. Who needs stuff anyway? I'd probably be happier if my apartment burned down! Sounds like an actual adventure.
If you have stuff you fear losing it, If you have nothing you fear nothing.Friday, July 29, 2011
No lose poker
If you knew you had a 70% advantage to win a hand every time you played it what would you do?
Well double up after winning about 2 or 3 of those then play at the next level. Then double up again and again and again.
If you go all in preflop with aa, kk, qq, jj, (this will happen about once every 50 hands, then you double up then go to the next level. You could go from table to table every 30 minutes to not let anyone know your style of play. and when you have a good cushion of money you go up to the next bet level. You would need a table of players who are call stations or loose players and not tight. And with blinds small you can wait for a good hand. You'd only go down about 15$ in 1-2 no limit before hitting a hand. If they call. You don't even have to be good at poker to do this.
Hitting top pair 30% of time you have 2 high cards should pay for the blinds. If not other trap hands which a good poker player would be wise to know.
(A,A)(k,k)(Q,Q) pre flop always go all in with because have a 70% chance of winning.
Raise pre flop then: postflop top pair top kicker, top kicker, go all in because only 2% chance they have 2 pair and small chance they have pocket over pair if you were playing good hands.
call multiple bets with pocket pairs(preflop pair 6% chance)
Call multiple bets with suited connectors, 12% chance of getting all in hand.
-----------
High pair QQ, KK, AA: Go all in preflop and hope someone calls. Hopefully you'll get a string of high pairs in a row and double up multiple times in a row and quickly get a huge bankroll. If no one calls the all in then you'll have to wait until the next high pair, which will be roughly another 6 blinds.
High cards 10/k and above: Play from any position and call small raise and if have top pair then go all in because they only have a 2% chance of having 2 pair or and 4% chance of trips. Hope that they call with bad kicker or second pair.
Suited connectors: Call in any position because of the infinite outs you could get. Don't call huge amounts. This is good if you get a straight or a flush and put a person all in but always be in position. Chances they have a better flush are low and wait for them to improve before putting them all in.
A,rag suited, K rag suited: Only play in position because you want to know if they're going to bet since you're chasing and fold if you get a pair, Never call a raise.
But if you can get in cheap in position then even a rag off suit can hit trips once in a while. or 2 pair once every 50 hands. This is good for low balling and if you always try to steal the blinds and bet pattern is always the same. So don't do this in this system.
-----
System to win: Buy in for half of your bankroll then try to triple it up. If you do, then you buy in for half of that bank roll. If you don't and lose your whole stack then buy in for half of your new bankroll. This is higher risk but at the lower levels its worth the extra risk to get a bigger bankroll quickly. Every hour or so get up and change tables so that nobody can tell how tight of a player you are. Do not pay for a draw. Unless 15-20 outer. So basically don't do implied odds very much at all.
Hitting the flop percentages
Chance of obtaining percentages
Well double up after winning about 2 or 3 of those then play at the next level. Then double up again and again and again.
If you go all in preflop with aa, kk, qq, jj, (this will happen about once every 50 hands, then you double up then go to the next level.

System to win: Buy in for half of your bankroll then try to triple it up. If you do, then you buy in for half of that bank roll. If you don't and lose your whole stack then buy in for half of your new bankroll. This is higher risk but at the lower levels its worth the extra risk to get a bigger bankroll quickly. Every hour or so get up and change tables so that nobody can tell how tight of a player you are. Do not pay for a draw. Unless 15-20 outer. So basically don't do implied odds very much at all.

Pros and Cons of Different Societies
Capitalism pros and cons:
Democracy:
Socialism/Dictatorships/the Ruling Class:
Egalitarianism, Tribal culture, and Native Americans pros and cons:
I'm man enough to admit that egalitarianism is sort of speculative and may or may not work with today's world. But I also know for a fact that socialism, democracy, and even capitalism don't work and have always failed and fallen and always will.
As far as we know we are the most intelligent and most successful species in the universe, shouldn't our lives be extremely easy and stress free and simple?
When you're constantly in a hurry and work really hard all the time.... somethings wrong! That's why we have brains.
- Over time in capitalism things become made out of cheaper and cheaper materials and also become made badly so that they break on purpose called "engineered obsolescence". Supposedly capitalism leads to innovation, and invention, and easier life, but really it doesn't lead to an easier life if you have to work 40 hours a week or more nowadays, just to pay the bills, and keep rebuying things that break or run out, and this continues until the day you die. Also these inventions that "make life easier" over time are made cheaper and cheaper and to break easier so it becomes a badly made invention through the natural course of capitalism. This would even take place in pure capitalism and is the main flaw in even pure capitalism.
- Also capitalism is sort of like democracy because you are voting on a product by paying for it so products that nobody buys go out of business but the thing is that advertising is what decides what is bought most. And since only rich people can afford advertising then that is the rich people win scenario and innovation and change is harder
- Right now we have one of the biggest transfers of wealth in history from the housing collapse. But it transfering from the poor to the rich. Only people with 20,000$ can buy a foreclosed house. Most people are too poor to make good investments.
- When your hands are busy with busy work that never ends then you have no time to think and be creative and use your innate human ingenuity so our entire population that is working all day long could be thinking and inventing instead.
- Also capitalism reacts to changes in population. If the whole population is trying to save money and also work 70 hours a week then guess what? You also have to do that in order to keep up with the competition. Labor costs go down and product costs of different products change.
- When jobs are transported over sees guess what? Unemployment goes up and you start to get paid less and you have to go to school again and now more competition in all the other fields means everybody as a whole gets payed less from high workforce low job availability.
- Monopolies.
Democracy:
- The minority are slave to the majority. This is how America started and is probably why we had black people as slaves. Because they were the minority.
Socialism/Dictatorships/the Ruling Class:
- Always springs up from capitalism as the government taking money to protect the people from outsiders, and from themselves, and eventually turns into dictatorship and martial law. The ruling class make more and more rules over time to get more and more control. We have ultimate power to control other humans now, the only reason is for money and to enslave people. People are then a commodity or possession.
- You wouldn't need slaves though if things were all free some day. Socialism and dictatorships are basically another word for slavery. "The borrower is slave to the lender". And the government is a loan you will never pay off. This is exactly how the mob operates.
- Rules and regulations and laws and contracts and EVERYTHING are made infinitely complex on purpose to dissuade you from ever even attempting anything and to keep you under control. This is call "Bureaucracy".
Egalitarianism, Tribal culture, and Native Americans pros and cons:
- This is a static society. Things don't really change over a long time. They just have food, shelter, and community. In there words: When work needs to get done we all work, when food is plentiful we all eat. They would volunteer when things needed fixing or when food needed to get collected then it gets done quickly and efficiently and they rest for the rest of the week. They each only use what they need, so the resources and environment didn't get damaged. With the free time each one of them had time to think and be creative and craft new things.
- They say that if you didn't have to work then nothing would ever get invented but in reality, I invent or research and develop things because I'm bored and enjoy it, even though I will never get paid. Also necessity is the mother of invention and if there ever really is a need such as way to catch food then we as humans would invent and did invent, or just fiddle around with things for fun.
- Really experiments and even entertainment people do for free for you to watch for free also as proven by youtube, as well as blogs and discussion groups to solve problems. I'd venture to say that this is actually better entertainment most of the time also.
- We would also through natural logic instead of capitalism, develop things to never break and out of better materials, so that we wouldn't have to make them again, most notably, houses which are made too complex and wrong and out of the cheapest materials known to man.
- Without working 40 hours a week, you would have time for philosophy, art, science, learning, stories, entertainment, games dancing, potlucks, BBQ's every week, building, traveling, visiting family, and having time for friends which is the most important.
- If you steal something you might start a fight or worse get killed. But why steal when someone will show you how to make something or you could trade for it. And that's only for new inventions that nobody has ever seen before. When everybody already has everything they need then why steal? This was their mentality.
- Hopefully no motive for crime or for slavery if everything is free and no work to do anyway. I don't ever remember reading about slaves in any Native American culture ever even the Mayans.
- Some resources are scarcer than others so in capitalism the price goes up, but when you only use what you need and there are not monopolies then it's free, and you just go get it yourself when it's needed. They also had people who would travel from town to town to bring news and objects from far away. By hand without horses. No giant trucks.
- No stock market. No economic crashes.
- No living on the street or homeless
- The only charity is volunteering time or knowledge, not giving money which is widely used as money laundering by charities who skim off the top and also promote socialist agendas. Tithing for church is a messed up thing for god to promote.
- Giving thanks was traditional for everything and their ceremonies were not about commercialism and presents and boosting the economy which is the main reason we have most holidays in America.
- They just sat around and smoked pot and drank alcohol all day long every day.
- They had no technology. And some say that it's impossible to have complex technology for free without capitalism. But I say why make it complex. That' why we have brains...so that we don't have to work as hard through tools and methods. The goal is to simplify things which are sleeker and extremely simple with no moving parts.
- Indian kids knew how to survive as much as adults by the age of 7.
- Medication was just plants with instant effects that were noticeable and worked and were free(not a monopoly). They had medicine men but also a healthier population and let natural selection take it's course. Before insurance (same term the mob used) took over. No hospitals was actually better because they didn't infect other patients and create staff infections in hospitals like nowadays.
- It costs money to have fun or do anything in the city and it's always fake because you're not allowed to do any real things like build or garden or trap etc. Instead you get virtual lives on f***book. Like in the Alaska documentary about old crow where the guy visited old crow to learn subsistence living from his dad then went back to the city and was extremely bored and finally had to move to old crow because there was actually always stuff to do. And probably also friends to do stuff with that had time. And less stress. And this is a real place right now as we speak.
I'm man enough to admit that egalitarianism is sort of speculative and may or may not work with today's world. But I also know for a fact that socialism, democracy, and even capitalism don't work and have always failed and fallen and always will.
As far as we know we are the most intelligent and most successful species in the universe, shouldn't our lives be extremely easy and stress free and simple?
When you're constantly in a hurry and work really hard all the time.... somethings wrong! That's why we have brains.

Ancient Survivalism Meets>>> Modern Technology
An old theory of mine was that native americans were way more advanced philosophically and had a better society than white men and if it wasn't for the more advanced weapons of the white man and the indians had won the war the world would be a better place right now.
Native Americans were like any other human except that they had time on their hands and weren't in the pursuit of money. The natives of the northwest US had so much food available all year round that life was easy and enjoyable. So they were free to use their brains and their hands. This lead to art(totem poles) Stories, spirituality, philosophy, baskets, long houses, canoes, communities along the entire puget sound got along and would visit each other every year in the traditional canoe trips. They even lived together in large long houses with multiple families while nowadays we all have separate rooms and apartments. They had no concept of land ownership and never built fences...EVER.
If you compare them to modern white men and women. We are so vain that using dirt or animal or grass for any part of our houses is considered disgusting, Not to mention our obsession with self image. We have parents who act like children, and fake relationships where the only meaning to our lives is a spouse and kids and pets instead of adventure and exploration and being independent. We are always yelling at each other and stealing from each other mostly about money. We litter and don't care. We know so little about anything that assumptions and misconceptions are the main cause of arguments. And our lack of knowledge and experience makes it impossible to ever change our lifestyle or location in the world. We're so spoiled that it takes some people hours just to decide what restaurant they want to go to for dinner. We are so sedentary that we have an obesity epidemic. We don't know where our food or T-shirts come from and just buy it from the store.
---------------------------------
So if I were to start over I'd have a society with native american knowledge but with modern technology.
The technical term is egalitarian society, but with research and development.
We have the technology right now to never have to work again but the only problem is that everybody on the entire planet is working and are actually by definition slaves to a master. It only gets worse with both capitalism and socialism.
-------------------
How to do it:
As the native americans did, you all work together to build a town, then you all work together to make a farm with irrigation and plant plants, then you all work together to harvest them. Then the group or one elder divides the grain up evenly between families and the ones with more mouths to feed get a bigger percentage of the grain. And if there's tons of grain each person gets tons of grain.
To add the modern twist onto that:
Plumbing: compost or pasteurising toilets
Lighting: Fiber optics, LED, Solar panels, Or high tech theoretical technologies like high voltage light spheres
Energy: Don't use any, Or atomic battery, or reverse heat engine, spinning tub of sand. Solar panels
Heating/cooling: Better insulated houses
Medical: Have a box of medicine supplies and someone who read a book on the subject and can look up info as needed. Just like the old days with house calls.
Vehicle: helicopter, lifter, paraglider, advanced golf carts
Entertainment: Too easy to become propaganda so better to just have social activities like eating and church and sports and classes building stuff or arts/crafts hunting gathering
Home construction: Walls with roof, will never break and is therefore free housing to the next generation, Easy and cheap to make materials and infinite houses free to habitate.
Gadgets Devices: Made right with best materials so that will never break and never need improvement for their universal function. Until get a better version then replace.
Jobs: None

Alaska Is Better
Alaska is the best state!
Population of the state of Alaska is currently a little over 700,000. The population of the city of Tampa Fl. alone is a little over 300,000. The size of Alaska is roughly half the size of the United states.
The state of Alaska is so big that it has just as many climate zones as the rest of the united states also. Some parts in the south are old growth temperate rain forests. Sitka Alaska was the first base established by the white man(Russians) in the pacific northwest, and the northwest indians all the way into alaska had such plentiful foods all year round that they had time to think and use their hands. They crafted Totem poles and told stories and led rewarding spiritual or philosophical lives and enjoyed community. While up north the sun sets in the fall and doesn't rise for 6 months. Eskimos who live on the west coast of Alaska have lived there for thousands of years but we're too scared to try.
There are infinite lakes and more waterfront property in Alaska than the rest of the united states combined.
This state is just like the old america before the 1950's because of these Awesome factors:
- There is tons of land so everyone has land to grow food and farm, this is free exercise and good diet and nutrition so don't need a gym.
- Everybody caries a gun because of wild animals. You don't even need a permit for some guns and it's hard to enforce. So people are generally safer.
- So there is less regulation and less enforcement and less laws and less taxes for infrastructure just like back in the old days.
- It's all about capitalism and opportunity in Alaska. Because of the endless resources and low population they have the lowest unemployment rate in the nation and biggest # of independent people, because it's easy to get a job even if you have a bad background and can be crappy at your job and they'll never fire you because they'd have trouble finding another worker. So they'll put you to work if you don't already create your own capitalist ventures. They have so much money they'll give you free room and board and food and then pay you on top to work there at a summer job.
- Because there is money and stuff in alaska there is less stealing, and in the 50's nobody ever had to lock their doors because nobody ever stole anything back then. This leads to nicer people.
- All the towns are small towns therefore low stress and a general better mood so everybody is nice. I can speak from small town experience that there is a huge load lifted off of your shoulder as soon as you start to live there. Anchorage is one of the nicest cities in America.
- You are always busy and never bored, why watch TV when you can move a ship off the shore or captain one or create a cabin or catch or hunt food and preserve it or cook it.
- Because of this Alaska's population has the highest IQ in the nation because they have to know how to do everything as a matter of survival. So if you want to learn a lot GO to Alaska. It's the best college of them all. Become an electrician or a welder or a captain and they'll teach you for free and put you to work with hands on experience. Also their IQ'd will rub off on you as you have to come up to their level to keep up.
- Because there are less people there are less accidents
- Because you make so much money you can save it up instead of using credit cards any more.
- No car fumes or pollution or noise or smokers.
- The permafrost is a permanent refrigerator and also makes outhouses not stink. All year round.
So you just have to trade crappy city lifestyle which obviously has no future in it... for the cold! And if you're fat like me, you're made for the cold anyway, so don't deny your genetics. And if you live in Alaska for very long you're sure to get rich in some way without even trying. Probably even a complete retard could succeed there, just like even kids were easily able to do before the 50's. And if you want you could transfer that wealth to a venture outside of Alaska later on if you really didn't like Alaska.
And if for nothing else, just build a cabin up there in the woods... even a shack! And have it somewhere that nobody will ever find in a million years and you will always have that there just in case you ever decide to stop working in the city. So you always have the option of never having to work again. Or just go up there as a summer cabin and go fishing all summer.
"Cold is a choice" based on the right clothes and right construction you will never be cold... Ever! Unless you're a moron!
Life is simple: food/shelter/community: Idle hands are not the work of the devil(Christian concept) , instead they are the source for human inspiration and innovation!
The Indians knew this and weren't obsessed with making money off of resources. When work needed to get done they would all work, and when food was plentiful they would all eat. They used what they needed. When the work was done they were done. Since you don't have any bills to pay and don't have anyone working for you they could just relax. The endless pursuit of money is just that... endless. There is never enough. And before you know it you have to save money to keep up. And then work harder while also saving up, and then you lose your job then your house. And have to take 2 jobs and have bad health from all the stress and cheap food. All for a few bucks and some cheap Chinese merchandise. Economics 101.

Restricted calorie diet
Nobody knows exactly how it works but it's main reasons might be Hormesis or mitochondrial hormesis. Cells not becoming less susceptable to oxidative or toxic damage. Or increasing your bodies defensive and survival state.
People say it's bad not to eat or unhealthy but when done right it's the healthiest thing to do. compared to overeating and being overweight.
Negatives:
People with low body fat should not do this and is dangerous, neither should older people with health problems, but should instead exercise.
It leads to loss of muscle mass and performance of exercise.
Positives:
Reduce diet to 1200 or less calories a day without micronutrient shortage.
It has been shown to "increase" DHEA(growth hormone) in primates.
Increases memory because of low insulin levels.
Lengthens youthful appearance and function. Stay fertile longer also.
Original studies in lab mice of extreme calorie restricted diets extended expected lifespan by 100%. They lived twice as long.

Money
What if all of a sudden nobody had to work anymore because everything was now free? We'd all of a sudden have time. All our friends and family wouldn't have to keep a schedule anymore. We wouldn't even need watches and then we'd all of a sudden have all the time in the world for friends and family and making more and more meaningful relationships and experiences from traveling and communicating with every single person along the way. And nobody had stress. We wouldn't be bored because we'd be seeing the world wit travel. There was no crime because nobody stole anymore almost like living back in the 50's. No need to lock anything. And maybe even happiness would take over the globe as the biggest wave of social influence ever catching from one person to the next like an infectious disease.
If you take away the cause there is no effect.
Conceptual numbers and Conceptual comfort, and Conceptual anger.
So in the beginning of time we started with farms and capitalists and pilagers.
The farmers would use crops as currency.
The capitalists(cap-in-toll: if you couldn't pay your head was the price or your slavery) Would use silver as currency. And had markets, and had contracts, and had politicians, and had priests, and everything we have today.
And the pilagers didn't farm but were hungry and wanted food and money for free so they'd go around and steel stuff instead of working or living in society.
---------------------------------
Fast forward 8,000 years to today.
Everything is still exactly the same!
So the root of all evil is money. Why? Well without cause there wouldn't be effect. Without motive there wouldn't be crime.
There have been psychological tests if you have animals in a cage and restrict food, then after a week put a piece of meat in the cage, what do you think will happen? They will fight over the meat and the biggest one will win. Just go to the park and feed the sea gulls. They will fight over it and the biggest one will always be fed first.
All crimes are done to steel things or as a negotiation tactic for future deals or the current deal. If you took away the motive would there all of a sudden be no criminals in jail? It's all psychology!
We as humans are no better than animals still. We fight over land and money, and stuff. Everybody wants a piece of the pie. For the little guys it's just 1000$ to waste on a badly made new gizmo, for the fortune elite it's land and power. All wars since the beginning of time have just been a negotiation tactic. They've wanted more money or power and the victor was the one who won the negotiation at the loss of thousands of lives and usually the leaders stayed out of the fight and in luxury and never died in the end.
First of all if you make good stuff that doesn't break you never need to buy new stuff. Second of all there is infinite land in the universe and on space ships if we learned to work together. Third of all, money is only a concept.
I have a demonstration you might try sometime. Pull out a dollar bill in front of a crowd and ask "what is this"? They'll say "a dollar". So they obviously are using their amazing imaginations so then say "what's it made out of?" They'll say "paper". So then you say "yes paper, and not even very good paper" and then you rip the worthless dollar in half, and let them know of the concept that "money does not exist". You have just proved that it was a concept because now no one will accept it as currency because it's all ripped up. It's a fake concept and is called "fiat currency" and is only a concept. Everything on earth only has value because we all put it there. Even if it's a free item like a signature. But in reality it doesn't have any value intrinsic or otherwise. In the end when we die all our possessions don't go with us when we die. We are only here temporarily and are only borrowing stuff for a short time while we live.
You may argue then that we should have the best life with the most stuff while we're here and not care about how many crimes we break or people we hurt while we're here.
I would agree that we do not need to really worry about any consequences, but why would you put yourself through all that stress having to wear a business suit and do ridiculous paperwork and have anger and distrust and greed and with fortune comes misfortune.
There is a better way! there is still hope for the human race! What if everything was free?
.....................................................................
What if housing was free?
What if air conditioning was unneeded?
What if insurance was never needed?
What if water was free or we didn't use it as much?
What if food was free, any type grown locally in all seasons?
What if energy was hardly ever needed and if it was the energy was free and infinite?
What if your car never broke and it got over 150 miles to the gallon, or instead we flew everywhere for free?
What if computers never over heated, and what if we didn't even need them?
What if we had free lighting, and free heat?
What if we weren't so bored with modern day life that the only thing to do is watch tv.
The simple fact is all these technologies exist right now.
Stone, dirt, brick, composting toilet, or pasteurizing, non electric washer, clothes line, mobile hydroponic green houses, low energy devices, atomic batteries, fusion, erbium fiber optics, processors and SSD's without designed obsolescence overheating, paragliders, golf cart run from gas generator. Do projects and help each other, and socialize, and do rituals like lunch or church or games or dancing.
-------------------------------------------------------
If you never had to buy anything ever again would the economy collapse or what would happen. If all your bills were free except for one which was toilet paper would the price of toilet paper become trillions of dollars a roll or would you then only work for the toilet paper factories or what would happen? If all our work was done by AI robots and we never had to work again what would happen to the economy, or to power and government?
In the end this is the only way out. People are obsessed with the end of the world because they think there's no way out and they just have to start over. But there is a way out, make things that never break and that are free to make!
Machu pichu in ancient peru had it right. They had terraced easy to water farms, and houses made out of stone that would never break, up in the mountains where no one could find them or take their stuff either. Impossible for pillagers to steal meant that they needed no government to protect them. All they needed was food/shelter/and love. For whatever reason they disappeared they had it right.

I would agree that we do not need to really worry about any consequences, but why would you put yourself through all that stress having to wear a business suit and do ridiculous paperwork and have anger and distrust and greed and with fortune comes misfortune.
There is a better way! there is still hope for the human race! What if everything was free?
.....................................................................
What if housing was free?
What if air conditioning was unneeded?
What if insurance was never needed?
What if water was free or we didn't use it as much?
What if food was free, any type grown locally in all seasons?
What if energy was hardly ever needed and if it was the energy was free and infinite?
What if your car never broke and it got over 150 miles to the gallon, or instead we flew everywhere for free?
What if computers never over heated, and what if we didn't even need them?
What if we had free lighting, and free heat?
What if we weren't so bored with modern day life that the only thing to do is watch tv.
The simple fact is all these technologies exist right now.
Stone, dirt, brick, composting toilet, or pasteurizing, non electric washer, clothes line, mobile hydroponic green houses, low energy devices, atomic batteries, fusion, erbium fiber optics, processors and SSD's without designed obsolescence overheating, paragliders, golf cart run from gas generator. Do projects and help each other, and socialize, and do rituals like lunch or church or games or dancing.
-------------------------------------------------------
If you never had to buy anything ever again would the economy collapse or what would happen. If all your bills were free except for one which was toilet paper would the price of toilet paper become trillions of dollars a roll or would you then only work for the toilet paper factories or what would happen? If all our work was done by AI robots and we never had to work again what would happen to the economy, or to power and government?
In the end this is the only way out. People are obsessed with the end of the world because they think there's no way out and they just have to start over. But there is a way out, make things that never break and that are free to make!
Machu pichu in ancient peru had it right. They had terraced easy to water farms, and houses made out of stone that would never break, up in the mountains where no one could find them or take their stuff either. Impossible for pillagers to steal meant that they needed no government to protect them. All they needed was food/shelter/and love. For whatever reason they disappeared they had it right.
Interpretation and Reaction
When we see a cat on the side of the road as we're driving by, there are many different ways we can both interpret this and also react to those interpretations.
We could see the cat in an angry way and say "what a stupid cat on the side of the road is going to kill itself".
We could see it in a humorous way and say "look at that cute funny looking cat"
We could interpret it in a sad way and say "Oh poor cat, it must be lost and have lost it's parents and I'd be sad if it got run over".
Or interpret it in many other ways.
reacting to it is a separate matter.
Now anger can be constructive or destructive. Sometimes people like seeing anger from someone who is doing the right thing but don't want to see it from someone who's doing the wrong thing.
Seeing insults as funny is the norm these days and people become desensitized to constantly insulting each other and swearing at each other that they find they laugh even at the most hurtful insults, and may regret it later or not. Who knows?
When you you see someone instantly assume thing this is they immediately interpreting something in the way they're usually accustomed to and then they may react to it either in a good or bad way. So both interpretation and reaction are separate. You could see something bad and be dead pan or see something bad and cry or be angry or other.
Also the emotions and actions you protray will effect how others treat you. If you are sad or depressed then you may possibly bring out the better qualities in others by them showing care and comfort and not making things worse. But if you're energetic and enthusiastic and or anoying then people will feel free to use insult comedy or to react strange toward you or fake being happy also, just to not get you riled up.
Along the same lines if you are quiet all the time then nobody has anything to interpret so no good or bad interpretations at all. This may actually be good because sometimes lots of people are kind and caring and quiet and accepting and complimentary around their friends but around other people who aren't their friends they always tell the truth about the person to everybody and have zero sympathy or comfort for them. In this situation it may be better to always just be quiet or keep everything you know or think a secret. So secrecy can be good so that nobody every has trouble understanding or interpreting what you say and it can also be good to not hurt other people or to say inappropriate language accidentally, and become the person you don't want to be. Or just stay away from those people who cause you to not be yourself and eventually you may not feel that way about them anymore and you both may have grown and become better at communicating. So separation and space and quiet can actually be healthy and help people fix their own points of view.
Our own personalities are all just figments of our own imaginations. We create ourselves. You can step outside your emotions and think logically but sometimes you have to confront issues in order to be able to live with yourself. The old term for sanity came from sanitary and to have a clean mind was sanity and cleaning it our with meditation, and logical thinking, was the only form of medication back then.

Learn to let go : Cure to depression
We all could use a little reminder every once in a while of what reality is when people are constantly forcing us to think their way and do fake things, or never even letting us think. So here is a dose of "reality" that will put the mind in perspective and is gauranteed to help all humans relax.
I don't exist, nobody knows I exist.
No one should care if you exist or not we are independent individuals, why focus on other peoples problems? Why not focus on other more happy people and living an actual good life. People need to solve things on their own anyway, so practice tough love. You shouldn't need others help either. No man is an island but a real man can take care of himself.
Be more than human. Free from mental or physical bonds.
Let go of all worries or stress or any thoughts at all. Calm the mind and think of nothing. Take in your surroundings and experience them instead. Open your eyes, free yourself.
Time doesn't matter.
The past and the future don't matter. Time is infinite, the past doesn't even exist anymore. There is scientifically no way to quantify time we have no actual measurable unite of time and even atomic clocks become wrong. It is only concept. We do not need a schedule. Don't go to work anymore and you all of a sudden don't need a clock at all.
Money doesn't matter.
Money doesn't even exist except in our minds. We make things and use them, not money. If you had zero money or even negative money all of a sudden it doesn't matter because you can survive with nothing perfectly fine with knowledge and skill. If things were free or free to operate we'd have no need to steal anymore, or work.
Space doesn't matter.
Space is infinite, no restrictions or requirements or even fences. Just walk in one direction and see if you reach an end. If you reach an ocean get on a boat and see if you reach an end. Even cycles are infinite, the solar cycle the tide cycle, the water cycle, the phosphorous cycle, the nitrogen cycle, the cycle of life, the orbits of the planets, the rotation of the milky way. There is no end to anything.
We do not exist.
We do not even exist in the grand scheme of the universe we will make no impact in time and leave no trace over time and be forgotten, nobody will have cared and nothing serves any real purpose, so doing no0thing is just as effective in the long term as doing something.
Our senses don't exist
If we are another animal we'd have either more senses or less senses or different senses. We know we see almost none of the spectrum of light, or hear only a small spectrum of sound. And those with no sense of smell or taste or sight or hearing or mentally handicapped from birth would never have even known that those senses even existed or what people are talking about. We cannot sense others thoughts, we cannot sense others love, or hate. We cannot sense infinite knowledge and power, or think extremely fast. There may even be more emotions we do not comprehend as well as paradoxical science we cannot comprehend with our type of brain.
Our own personality does not even exist.
Even our own personality is a figment of our own imagination, and changes over time with knowledge and good or bad experiences. Let go of yourself and change. You are a completely different individual than you were 5 minutes ago. You are living a totally different reality and time line now. What if you remember killing someone when you were 20 years old, and you lived another 500 years of life, how would you live that whole life? Would you live in self loathing or forgive yourself or just forget. All have no effect on the outside world, only on you. Sometimes it may never go away, or you can live with it, or some don't even mind.
Separate yourself from yourself. If you are an unpleasant individual and know it, and feel bad about yourself and thing bad of yourself or are depressed, then distance yourself from that person and think outside of that personality. Logical thought is separate from emotion. Being quiet and not talking and not responding or acknowledging your own thoughts or emotions is one way of doing this and was even done by the mathematician in "a beautiful mind".
How to fix depression:
For people with chemical problems: First of all assume you have no chemical problems because we didn't have this many seriously depressed people 200 years ago. One of the major side effects of anti-depressants is depression or suicidal thoughts(just read the side effects label). The first source to check is medications that are downers. Second is to check blood sugar, eat 6 fist sized meals a day of balance healthy carbs and protein to avoid highs and lows. Now exercise no more than an hour a day, so that you aren't tired the next day from over exercising. The increased adrenaline and strength will give you infinite energy, which is the opposite of a downer.
For people with no chemical problems:If you are depressed it's usually because your disappointed in yourself or have no self confidence or have given up on yourself, no point to life, every thing is bad, everything you look at is bad. But it's you and you can fix you. First watch a comedy show which is proven to decrease stress and make you feel good. Now instead of hating yourself, inspire yourself. Set out to achieve and become the best and inspire others and succeed at everything. You now feel good about yourself and what you can do and what you have done. Make a list of accomplishments. The difference is night and day.
Some have a sick and tired of being sick and tired moment, or a "THAT'S IT I'VE HAD IT!!!" moment. Or an AHA! moment of realization or an epiphany.

Psychological Predictions
If someone actually takes initiative or takes the lead in a situation, asks questions, or for help to do things, or gets things done by themselves, but can lead effectively, and knows how to get things instead of always being given things then you know by that that they will later in life be successful and able to get what they want out of life, and can set a goal and achieve it.
If someone is very imaginative or creative and good at noticing things or very detail oriented, then that person will eventually be extremely high IQ without ever even having to read a book. Because just by noticing things in life and putting 2 and 2 together they will learn more than anyone else who never notices things and only reads books. Einstein was only famous because he noticed things nobody else ever did. Knowledge and imagination are the most powerful thing in the universe.
Someone who knows how to have fun will actually become idealistic and prize fun and what is good and right over money or power. And will be a fighter for what's right and fun. Unless this leads to risky behavior which environment and knowing better will have to come into play. They also don't fear danger as much but enjoy it as the romantic sublime. And this will show as confidence in themselves because they'd rather be happy and have fun than be around people who are the opposite and who make them feel otherwise. This may show as being a people person at work, not taking offense. Giving it is another matter and some of these people like giving insults while others won't no matter what. Usually this idealism leads to less meaningful relationships than most.
If you are good looking and you find someone of like mind who is also good looking, then you will likely have a lasting very happy relationship. People do need a mental and emotional connection but you also need a physical one. You have to be attractive to attract. Achieving good looks not only shows ability to achieve or at least try but also boosts confidence and will attract the same thing.
Showing jealousy or mistrust of a loved one or even anger shows that you don't love them. Because if they're actually happy to be with you then they'll stay no matter what and vice versa. And if you're happy to be with them then nothing they do will make you angry, and vice versa. And if you actually like them then you'll let them find someone better, and you'll know that you weren't for them anyway, and you'll find someone who is a better match also, because sometimes loving is letting go. And if they have other relationships or experiment then you'd still like them for who they are and had already accepted them beforehand, otherwise you didn't know who they actually were and didn't like who they were when you found out.

Way of life 4
Grab a backpack and go
I was recently told by a midlife woman that if she had it to do over again she'd just grap a backpack and go because she now knows there's a whole world out there to see and would have liked to have seen it but because of kids and obligations has no choice now.
The story she told was of one of her daughters who traveled around Europe with just a backpack and how she stayed at hostiles at night which is a giant room with beds for travelers for free.
And she traveled by train or bus and it was only about 50$ to get clear across Europe.
And to pay for stuff she supposedly did massages.
So there are other ways to make small amounts of money for food and travel but you just have a backpack of clothes and survival stuff and go!!!

Snow birds.
If you own a house up north.
And your friend owns a house in Florida or Hawaii.
And you both have income independent of location. i.e. home business, travel business like fairs, social security income, or retirement, or you're just rich and live of of bank account.
Then you can both travel together south for the winter and north for the summer. This is good with family, or extremely close friend. Own the houses for less bills is better.
You don't need heating of the houses or cooling of the houses since you're only in them in normal temperatures. So this is perfect for cabins on acreage.

The American Dream is Alive and Well!!!!
So I was at a local subway today and saw some ladies running it that must have come straight from India. Red dots on the forehead and everything. So then I was reminded of a quote from a futurama episode where aliens were making pizza and said "we came to america to make pizza not money" Then the wife says, "no urg reverse it, we're here to make money not pizza!"
So the moral of the story is that people come to this country to make money and it works, and when people say "the American dream is dead because I'm at a dead end job and have no way to make money and will always be poor and can't afford school to get a better job". Then that's absolute proof that the American dream is still alive and well, because where do you think the money comes from for all the rich people out there??? It comes from people like you working for them, because that's how you get rich is from other people breaking their own backs for you.
So as long as you're willing to have other people work fro you and you have no problem with having slaves and stepping all over everyone and treating them like lesser human beings then you can be rich too, and it still works perfectly good.
You can get rich from nothing too, as proven by my money making list!!!

Ideas: peanut butter and granola bars, sweet fruit in small pie shell with cream on top. Cookies, doughnuts, jelly, potato chips.

Most people only have part time these days so find out how much you can get done with your extra time for free and only sweat equity with these ideas. The definition of entrepreneurship is spending half you time and money on something more profitable.
What did people do before big business???
Remember the time/money ratio. You want to spent the least amount of time while making the most amount of money. Also risk/reward. You always want the reward to far outweigh any risk. And the best businesses that never fail are ones with zero overhead. You want low start up cost or barrier to entry. Low holding costs. And low maintenence costs. All costs are entropy. If there were no taxes, or business expenses, or operating expenses or overhead then all businesses would be successful and never fail.
But most important is what you do has to be fun and easy and low stress and consume little time and have low liability, and be profitable. Ask yourself if you were losing money working where you work if you'd still work there? If the answer is no, then you don't like working there and need to find something you actually want to do.
With these 100% profit, zero barrier to entry ideas, you could very quickly have enough to buy a new car or even a new house worth 20,000$ if you save and are smart about it. By then you will basically be a rich person no matter where you work since you're saving 500$/mo on rent. After that everything is affordable by saving 6,000$/year or more. And you can buy a second house even faster and rent it out. That is the goal. Now people work for you!
There are more ways to make money than this. This is just my first version of this list and I will add to it as I find more.

How to make money without a job
- Collect golf balls
- Metal detect
- Trap animals and sell pelts or tallow or raw hide rope
- Fresnel lenses from broken big screen TV's add frame for more value from free wood off craigslist sell on ebay
- Find stuff at garage sales and flea markets thrift stores and sell on ebay
- craft something like wood peg puzzle games, or baskets or pottery or art and sell on ebay.
- rehab refurbish things and resell
- make ceramic bricks for construction and sell on craigs list
- Make a class on how to do something if your good at it but hard to make a profit or hard job. Do this class at local recreational center or place that has rooms like that for karate and stuff.
- Sell plants that grow that are rare or high quality. Year round with mobile multilayer green houses.
- Make brick ovens or green houses or adobe structures for people.
- Make objects or tools out of wood or clay or rope or animals. Or class on how to do those.
- Do yard work for people. Why run or go to the gym for cardio why not make money at it. Also you don't need to pay for gas if you do most by hand.
- Build stuff for people if you have a portfolio and good reviews.
- Look for a product that is over priced or low quality and make your own version of better quality and sell for less at the local flea market or on craigs list. Envelopes, cards, wood toys, kites, frames, containers,
- Become a good cook if you have a pallet and common sense. Then make your products of the best version you can find and make and sell at flea market or farmers market or fair. Ideas: peanut butter and granola bars, sweet fruit in small pie shell with cream on top. Cookies, doughnuts, jelly, potato chips. Anything that lasts a long time on the shelf, or on demand, and can try to sell multiple times, and doesn't become wasted work and material if doesn't sell.
Most people only have part time these days so find out how much you can get done with your extra time for free and only sweat equity with these ideas. The definition of entrepreneurship is spending half you time and money on something more profitable.
What did people do before big business???
Remember the time/money ratio. You want to spent the least amount of time while making the most amount of money. Also risk/reward. You always want the reward to far outweigh any risk. And the best businesses that never fail are ones with zero overhead. You want low start up cost or barrier to entry. low holding costs. And low maintenence costs. all casts are entropy. If there were no taxes or business expenses or operating expenses or overhead then all businesses would be successful and never fail.
But most important is what you do has to be fun and easy and low stress and consume little time and have low liability, and be profitable. Ask yourself if you were losing money working where you work if you'd still work there? If the answer is no, then you don't like working there and need to find something you actually want to do.
With these 100% profit zero barrier to entry ideas you could very quickly have enough to buy a new car or even a new house worth 20,000$ if you save and are smart about it. By then you will basically be a rich person no matter where you work since you're saving 500$/mo on rent. After that everything is affordable by saving 6,000$/year or more. And you can buy a second house even faster and rent it out. That is the goal. Now people work for you!

All People Are Good, The World Is Good!
WHAAAAAT???? Is probably what you're thinking. You're thinking "I can prove to you several people who are bad even thousands right now". But you'd be wrong, and I won't prove my case to you but I will give you something to think about, with actual tests that have been done before, and tidbits of reality, and show you how it's true. "Oh but that's absolutism, not every body is good because that's impossible". Yes. That's correct but for all intents and purposes, 5 people out of a million is basically zero who are bad and you'll never personally run into one.
So what am I talking about? Simple psychology.
All prisoners in prison are there because usually they're so evil they killed someone. But why? Yes one in a million are insane in a way that they enjoy the taste of blood and like seeing not just any guts but human guts. But for the most part there's always a reason. It's called "motive". Cause and effect. Usually people are mean to each other because of money or a girl or ruining each others property or killing each others family and it's revenge, but stealing most of all is one of the main parts of crime that is completely a bi-product of modern society. But take away the cause and there will be no effect. And none of those people would have ever committed a crime or broke a rule in the first place, because no reason to.
A famous test performed throughout the ages is put 2 animals in a cage and restrict food. Then put a piece of meat in the cage. What do you think will happen?
They'll fight over it and that's exactly what we have on our world today. If humans weren't trapped in the city and had to fight over money and space and weren't stressed out by having no time then we'd all be happy.
Just look at rich people. They have lots of time and money and space and they're happy. Just look at the 50's or as we like to call it "the good old days" They had lots of time and money and space and were nicer and happier and you never had to lock your car or your house(I have 2 elderly witnesses who back this up). Just look at small towns, they have lots of space and lots of time and may not have money but don't need it because they definitely have lots of ways of getting food and water and everything else without money.
So poverty of time, money, and space, leads to discontent.
You always hear that the cause for most divorces is money. But I say it's anger issues about the money. And the money just brings the anger to light. But take away the need for money and things and worries and there is no anger.
Take a horder like a woman from that new reality show "buried alive". That person is normal. If she weren't living in the city there would be no problem. Lets say she lived in a tribe in africa. What would she hord? maybe she'd have teeth of animals or she'd have sticks or she'd have animal hide, or maybe a hord of cattle which are valuable in africa. Would she be weird? No, it would be a different environment with a different psychology and different social norms. And she wouldn't be buried alive because she'd have tons of space anyway.
Take kids who have never used a gun or bow and arrow. They pick one up and want to experiment because they've never been taught anything in modern society. Guess what will happen. The news pare headline "Stupid kid shoots friend with gun in accident". Why? Take the same kids, have them grow up 200 years ago with native americans. Not only will they already know how to use a gun and bow. But by the age of 7 they know everything that the adults know and can survive in the wild with nothing.
Take people living in slums. Why do they live there? I have a saying, "Idiots do stupid things". Why don't they walk away? They have no food and live in sewage and have disease, an no clean water and no wood for heat and eat rotting meat. When if you just walk for a little bit you'll run into a forest where there is infinite free food and clean water and no sewage and plenty of wood for heat. The reason is they don't even know how to survive because they have never even been taught of an outside world so they might actually die if they tried. So for starving people in africa or mexico or india or china in slums, don't give them food or even seeds to make food. Give them a survival manual to show them that anything is possible.
We are just as dependent as the people in the slums these days, we're never taught anything. Why is it that a 7 year old can learn everything there is to know about the world if an indian, but we have to go to school for 9 years then college for 10 years and hundreds of thousands of dollars just to learn one skill? It doesn't work that way in reality???? So you tell me are people that go to college actually smart? Yes it's normal to have a job and go to school and buy a crappy car, everybody does it. But it is a government construct made by the people in power, to make life impossible and unachievable.
Impossible because I always hear everyone I work with and everyone in the apartments complaining that they can't afford school, or can't afford a new car, or can't afford to leave the apartment, and can't even afford to do the laundry. And think they're going to literally die when they miss the end of a movie on cable TV.
The old piece of cheese story where 2 men and 2 mice are in a maze and always have cheese appear in a corner every day. Then one day the cheese disappears. One guy stays thinking it will come back some day while the other guy moves location and tries something new and does find a new piece of cheese. While the guy who never moved ends up dieing. What happens when they take away your piece of cheese?
We live in houses with no insulation made out of wood IN THE STATE OF FLORIDA, that we spend money to air condition 24/7 and also they burn down and we pay hundreds of thousands for these total heaps of trash that constantly require fixing, and end up getting foreclosed on anyway.
------------
When out of dirt and cement or glue you can make a structure that you do not need to air condition because of thermal mass, and is 60 degrees year round. Just dig down a couple feet and measure the soil temperature with an infrared thermometer. AND it will not burn down(no more insurance) and is sound proof to not hear the neighbors.
We also have wall plugs and faucets and phones and internet and cable and if anyone ever just flipped a switch and took it away, what would you do? It will probably never happen but if you don't know what you'd do, then your have less intelligence than a 7 year old native from 200 years ago. And house pets have the intelligence of a 3 year old, so where are you?
The universe is actually simple and our society was made to purposefully over complicate things. Why our president/king wants land so much and power and to keep us down, is the same reason those dogs in a cage want the piece of meat. Get rid of the need for money, have infinite space resources and time and people will be happy. And not need things and never have stress or anything to worry about ever again.
If you need control and leaders and systems and rules then there's something fundamentally wrong with you as a species. Rules and control are there because you're afraid of each other.
Here's how.....
You make everything free!
Make it last forever. This is called free to operate and free to the next guy. And guess what, it's cheaper than modern stuff anyway, because you don't have to fix it! If things were free to operate or free to get and never broke then we'd have a better world, I know that. And you can make it yourself anywhere anytime because after all this is reality. And an actual world with actual materials and actual physical laws and science. This is everyone's land, not any one persons if we disagree. Like the indians used to say this is everyones land to walk on. Before we introduced fences.
Have stone or cement houses that last forever,
have pieces of furniture that last forever,
There's other ways to do plumbing, burry, burn, chemical, compost, pasteurize.
There are other ways to do electricity, devices that use no power.
Why TV computer or video games when you could travel? Computers and video games and TV are by definition virtual and not reality. Go out and have some actual adventure and live your own life.
Why cell phone if there's no emergencies?
Why air conditioning when you can have thermal mass?
Why have a car if you have no appointments to get to and can fly instead?
Why electric washers if you can do the same thing by yourself faster and just as easy?
Why fridge when you can have fresh or dry food?
Why electric lighting when there's oil, sap, wax, And even winding light that uses no electricity at all.
Why energy at all. In 5 years they say cell phones will have small processors and materials that use low power and will be powered by motion not battery. Why not have all devices use no energy Even lighting can be free with fiber optics. And if you do need any energy you only would need a palm sized wind generator.
Knowledge is more powerful than anything in the universe. You can take over the world, escape prison, create infinite energy, travel space, and survive supernovas with it. Never under estimate a little info.
The meaning of your life is up to you. Our universe gives you the freedom of choice and knowledge and hands and an imagination. The most dangerous combination in the universe.
There's different ways of doing everything. Anything is possible! Don't fall into the same trap as the people in slums. And if you're unhappy, then move.
So what am I talking about? Simple psychology.

Poker systems
ABC poker : Start with this at 1-2 no limint tables then once have made a few bucks move onto research and development testing out the odds and facts of advanced strategy. Once you know somethings real and correct then you have confidence.
Advanced no limit hold em basic concepts to get good at through repetition.
Give weak players bad odds when they're on a draw, by betting first. To milk money from them. Good players you need to trap. Play the opposite of what the table is. Loose play tight aggressive, tight play loose aggressive.
Implied odds is the name of the game when it comes to no-limit. Unlike limit poker
Implying that they already have a good hand to call you with when you hit your speculative hand and they won't expect the speculative hand and get scared away.
If you are unable to make the correct sized bets at each stage of the hand, you will find that you will have a very big leak in your game.
Aggressive play opens up more doors than passive. It depends on which doors you walk through. Most top poker players on TV are either tight aggressive or loose aggressive. Which one do you like most? Because you need to make it your own. Create your own way or style, don't copy someone else. Make up your own mind what's best through your own research and development. Maybe even discover new secrets nobody else knows.
What types of players there are and how to beat them.
Create the most profitable situations out of every hand you do play before you even start playing them then carry out the play.
-------------------
Saw some really good poker players recently and their system seemed sort of simple.
..Call all the way to end with any chance of winning.
..Bet all the way to the river with any chance of winning.
..Obviously bet 3 times the minimum bet(+1p) or call that. or call or bet 1/3 to 1/2 the pot, bet sizing. To keep you from drawing, or to keep you in to pay them of slowly or let you put yourself all in.
..The other good players and them would go back and forth and not win money off of each other, but they'd evenly win money from the bad players making mistakes.
..They probably also knew exactly what I had and could not tell what each other had. All from how I bet and how they bet, along with body language, or their lack of any.
..This only really works when 3 times the minimum bet is a small portion of your chip stack. So it doesn't work in small tournaments with small chipstacks. only deep stack tournaments, or cash tables. For small chip stack tournaments you might as well just play best hands and never bet to give bad odds or value bet. and only call if good pot odds.
-------------------------------
Playing position: Blind stealing:
Position and agressive betting will help you win a lot of small pots
Bet 1/2 to 3/4 of the pot
Bet three times the big blind preflop
When you miss the flop take one more stab at the pot.
Only with hands that can hit big, no garbage.
If they check to you then take stab at it.
All of these in position.
Small ball: Relies on position. Risk little money to make a lot, know how to set traps and avoid them is what sets advanced players apart from weaker ones.
Avoiding traps:
Keep the faith in the system by folding marginal hands when raised.
Don't play big pots unless you have the upper hand.
Small ball is only effective if you are disciplined enough to fold good hands.
Setting traps:
Small ball is a trap in and of itself
play "small bet poker" to lose a little but win a lot.
Stay aggressive.
Play your good hands as you would your bluffs.
Always bet the same so no one can ever tell what you have.
Calling with nothing:
With position your hand is often irrelevant
If the board gets scary represent what scares your opponent
Look to take the pot with a bluff on the turn.
Defending your blind:
Make your opponents know you'll defend your blind.
The math is on your side- in the blind you get a discount.
When you miss the flop don't feel obligated to bluff.
Going pro:
Confidence is maintained by believing in your game
learning never stops- constantly work on your game.
The day you stop learning is the day other players pass you by.
Pot odds
Semi bluff: Put your opponent on a hand and if you think they're drawing dead then reraise them when you only have a draw. You now can either win the pot by them folding or by hitting your draw.
Implied odds
Poker plays:
"Phantom poker": Calling with nothing, in position, when they show weakness bet half the pot
"Mississippi bluff": Going all in on the river if they show weakness on the turn. Not small ball !
"Stop and go": don't go all in with pocket pair against AK before flop instead stop and go all in on the flop.
"Squeeze play" Against a bettor and a caller and you in position raise and take out the bettor because of uncertainty and the caller because of marginal hand.
poker tells:
..When their eyes glance at their chips then that means they like what they see
..When they reach for chips early then that means they're going to bet or raise and have something good.
..When they splash their chips and shove their hands out then that means they're trying to scare you and are bluffing. Why would you want to scare them off.
.. the alagory being that if they're nervous they are not bluffing because it's a natural release of tension when they made their hand and are then jittery.
..When you ask them a question and they speak jibberish it's probably because they're nervous and because they're bluffing.
.. If you can see the pulse on their neck then that means they have something good because you cannot stop physiologically stop the surge of adrenaline.
..if they blink their eyes really fast that usually means that they're bluffing.
..percing their lips means they're bluffing.
..rubbing their hands or legs or arms or face or running tounge inside cheek all means that they're usually bluffing because it's soothing to do these things.
..Happy feet: moving their legs up and down rapidly under the table means they hit a big hand and are not bluffing.
..Messy chips means loose or drunk player. Neat chips means tight player.
.. "Pokerclack" make a tsk sound trying to seem sad but are really happy.
.. If they stare at the pot then they didn't make anything but if they glace at it and then look away trying to seem uninterested then they really did make something.
..checking your whole cards means you're looking for suited. like when 3 to a flush come up. Never check your cards after the flop, it's like giving money away.
..Shoulder shrug or sigh or sadness usually indicates that they have strong cards and are just acting to get you to call.
.. If they start to bet, reach for your own chips, if they want you to call they will hurry their chips into the pot but if they are bluffing they hesitate and back down.
.. licking of the lips or bitting of the lips is an accurate indicator that there's some stress going on.
..seeing something negative makes you squint your eyes.
Trapping players: Good for early in a tournament
Continuation bets: To
Stealing blinds: Good for later in a tournament
Betting on a draw: Always bet but different amounts to throw people off, 1/3-full pot bet.
Check raise: Know that they will bet first, or know that you have a good hand if they call. Need to do sometimes to keep opponents off guard.
Information sources/reactions: Tells(good info), odds (pot, implied) and outs(good info), Bet first and make odds(good info), type of player(less than perfect info),betting patterns(less than perfect info), seeing their hand and how they played it on each round,
Bluffing: Find small ball players pressure points by noting their tendencies of what fraction of the pot they will bet or call and bet right above that when bluffing. Home run ball players you let them bet and you call and trap them with the nuts.
Ranges:
blinds antes- If blinds are zero then you'd only play a hand if it was 2 aces, if blinds were 50% of chip stack then you'd be all in with almost any hand every time.
chip stack- with small chip stack then stealing blinds is worth a lot, with big chip stack stealing blinds is inconsequential
Advanced no limit hold em basic concepts to get good at through repetition.
Give weak players bad odds when they're on a draw, by betting first. To milk money from them. Good players you need to trap. Play the opposite of what the table is. Loose play tight aggressive, tight play loose aggressive.
Implied odds is the name of the game when it comes to no-limit. Unlike limit poker
Implying that they already have a good hand to call you with when you hit your speculative hand and they won't expect the speculative hand and get scared away.
- 6,7 suited with opponents chip stack of 1000$ at a call of 20$ is worth the implied odds but if he only has 100$ in front of him then it's not worth the 20$ bet to have a chance to win his stack.
- Play 9,j off suit against one player if you get the gut shot on the turn to get more action from him on those 2 more bets. Not ideal. But works.
- Having a speculative hand while the first to act raises and there are 4 callers and then you reraise and trap everyone for 2 times the original bet. And then you hit the speculative and get action from them all the way even trapping one of them for a whole stack. Best case scenario.
- Bet 3 times the big blind against loose opponents or call a raise with AK suited and get 2 callers and the ace hits on the flop with top pair and top kicker.
If you are unable to make the correct sized bets at each stage of the hand, you will find that you will have a very big leak in your game.
- Give bad odds to drawing hands. So they don't draw. This is also a good way to bluff. To do this bet 3/4ths the size of the pot or 4 times the big blind +1 for each player pre-flop. Or 3 times their bet size. And if it's 33% of your chip stack to call then go all in.
- How much are your opponents willing to pay with what you think they have.
- Always bet big before the flop if bet at all to get rid of any players on a draw and with minimum bet you will have a lot of callers with lots of chances to outdraw you. And you get no info about there hand because they call with any 2 cards.
Aggressive play opens up more doors than passive. It depends on which doors you walk through. Most top poker players on TV are either tight aggressive or loose aggressive. Which one do you like most? Because you need to make it your own. Create your own way or style, don't copy someone else. Make up your own mind what's best through your own research and development. Maybe even discover new secrets nobody else knows.
- Buy position by the good positions folding to your high bet.
- Earn free cards by weak hands checking to your high pair then folding to your raise. And then strong hands checking to your draw for a free card.
- Loose aggressive leads to wide fluctuations in winnings while tight aggressive is more a steady pace.
- They will trap you if you are aggressive so watch out. And be able to read the other players.
- Aggressive players can be bluffed because of the fact that they are both selective and aggressive. Do not bluff weak players because they call, so bet for value, and give bad odds. They call too much and stay in too long with weak hands.
- Reraise at the right time(sign of strength)
- Call a big raise or make a big raise before the flop and an ace comes on flop. Then raise or reraise against right opponent.
What types of players there are and how to beat them.
Create the most profitable situations out of every hand you do play before you even start playing them then carry out the play.

Saw some really good poker players recently and their system seemed sort of simple.
..Call all the way to end with any chance of winning.
..Bet all the way to the river with any chance of winning.
..Obviously bet 3 times the minimum bet(+1p) or call that. or call or bet 1/3 to 1/2 the pot, bet sizing. To keep you from drawing, or to keep you in to pay them of slowly or let you put yourself all in.
..The other good players and them would go back and forth and not win money off of each other, but they'd evenly win money from the bad players making mistakes.
..They probably also knew exactly what I had and could not tell what each other had. All from how I bet and how they bet, along with body language, or their lack of any.
..This only really works when 3 times the minimum bet is a small portion of your chip stack. So it doesn't work in small tournaments with small chipstacks. only deep stack tournaments, or cash tables. For small chip stack tournaments you might as well just play best hands and never bet to give bad odds or value bet. and only call if good pot odds.
-------------------------------
Playing position: Blind stealing:
Position and agressive betting will help you win a lot of small pots
Bet 1/2 to 3/4 of the pot
Bet three times the big blind preflop
When you miss the flop take one more stab at the pot.
Only with hands that can hit big, no garbage.
If they check to you then take stab at it.
All of these in position.
Small ball: Relies on position. Risk little money to make a lot, know how to set traps and avoid them is what sets advanced players apart from weaker ones.
Avoiding traps:
Keep the faith in the system by folding marginal hands when raised.
Don't play big pots unless you have the upper hand.
Small ball is only effective if you are disciplined enough to fold good hands.
Setting traps:
Small ball is a trap in and of itself
play "small bet poker" to lose a little but win a lot.
Stay aggressive.
Play your good hands as you would your bluffs.
Always bet the same so no one can ever tell what you have.
Calling with nothing:
With position your hand is often irrelevant
If the board gets scary represent what scares your opponent
Look to take the pot with a bluff on the turn.
Defending your blind:
Make your opponents know you'll defend your blind.
The math is on your side- in the blind you get a discount.
When you miss the flop don't feel obligated to bluff.
Going pro:
Confidence is maintained by believing in your game
learning never stops- constantly work on your game.
The day you stop learning is the day other players pass you by.
Pot odds
Semi bluff: Put your opponent on a hand and if you think they're drawing dead then reraise them when you only have a draw. You now can either win the pot by them folding or by hitting your draw.
Implied odds
Poker plays:
"Phantom poker": Calling with nothing, in position, when they show weakness bet half the pot
"Mississippi bluff": Going all in on the river if they show weakness on the turn. Not small ball !
"Stop and go": don't go all in with pocket pair against AK before flop instead stop and go all in on the flop.
"Squeeze play" Against a bettor and a caller and you in position raise and take out the bettor because of uncertainty and the caller because of marginal hand.
poker tells:
..When their eyes glance at their chips then that means they like what they see
..When they reach for chips early then that means they're going to bet or raise and have something good.
..When they splash their chips and shove their hands out then that means they're trying to scare you and are bluffing. Why would you want to scare them off.
.. the alagory being that if they're nervous they are not bluffing because it's a natural release of tension when they made their hand and are then jittery.
..When you ask them a question and they speak jibberish it's probably because they're nervous and because they're bluffing.
.. If you can see the pulse on their neck then that means they have something good because you cannot stop physiologically stop the surge of adrenaline.
..if they blink their eyes really fast that usually means that they're bluffing.
..percing their lips means they're bluffing.
..rubbing their hands or legs or arms or face or running tounge inside cheek all means that they're usually bluffing because it's soothing to do these things.
..Happy feet: moving their legs up and down rapidly under the table means they hit a big hand and are not bluffing.
..Messy chips means loose or drunk player. Neat chips means tight player.
.. "Pokerclack" make a tsk sound trying to seem sad but are really happy.
.. If they stare at the pot then they didn't make anything but if they glace at it and then look away trying to seem uninterested then they really did make something.
..checking your whole cards means you're looking for suited. like when 3 to a flush come up. Never check your cards after the flop, it's like giving money away.
..Shoulder shrug or sigh or sadness usually indicates that they have strong cards and are just acting to get you to call.
.. If they start to bet, reach for your own chips, if they want you to call they will hurry their chips into the pot but if they are bluffing they hesitate and back down.
.. licking of the lips or bitting of the lips is an accurate indicator that there's some stress going on.
..seeing something negative makes you squint your eyes.
Trapping players: Good for early in a tournament
Continuation bets: To
Stealing blinds: Good for later in a tournament
Betting on a draw: Always bet but different amounts to throw people off, 1/3-full pot bet.
Check raise: Know that they will bet first, or know that you have a good hand if they call. Need to do sometimes to keep opponents off guard.
Information sources/reactions: Tells(good info), odds (pot, implied) and outs(good info), Bet first and make odds(good info), type of player(less than perfect info),betting patterns(less than perfect info), seeing their hand and how they played it on each round,
Bluffing: Find small ball players pressure points by noting their tendencies of what fraction of the pot they will bet or call and bet right above that when bluffing. Home run ball players you let them bet and you call and trap them with the nuts.
Ranges:
blinds antes- If blinds are zero then you'd only play a hand if it was 2 aces, if blinds were 50% of chip stack then you'd be all in with almost any hand every time.
chip stack- with small chip stack then stealing blinds is worth a lot, with big chip stack stealing blinds is inconsequential
