    I lost 55lbs in 6 months and learned a secret from it. Stress plays a huge part in our healthy. I've had financial troubles and getting that out of the picture and making roughly $350,000 quarterly in passive income was the key solution for me. I started eating healthier and overall became a happier being. Like it or not, if you gotta worry about your money all the time, you can never concentrate on other aspects of your life. Some problems are deeply rooted in highly unseeming foundations.

      That's impressive man. I am curious as to what kind of investment you make now that yields that kind of profit for you. I also find myself in need of a good investment plan currently. I am sitting on $500k which I feel is doing absolutely nothing a the savings account.

    What people forget is that you are putting a lot of information out there which can be used in a way not what you think it was supposed to be for. e.g. dating? Criminal behaviour? Identity theft? That's just a few things that nefarious people and organisations can do. Companies can expose themselves to loss of critical information e.g. expert in field working for 'company x' may indicate to competitors that company 'x' is expanding in different areas. Those that have resources available to investigate can stifle companies progress and growth by head hunting key people - which may not matter in large companies but could be critical in small businesses.
