Why trading time for money is a fool's errand

There are those jobs that tend to milk you for minimal rewards, no vacation time, no sick days and to add on to that list, no medical insurance. Until it dawned on Adam Corolla (bestselling author, actor, comedian and host of “The Adam Corolla Show” – a show that holds the Guinness World Record for Most Downloaded Podcast) that this was a sucker’s game, that is exactly what was happening to him… toiling his life away at construction sites, and for what? So he decided to look for alternatives.

As Adam puts it, no matter how much you are earning per hour, if you must come in to earn it, and earn nothing when you are sick, it’s a losing proposition and an uneven exchange.
In this episode, Adam shows us how we can break the cycle and the medieval blue collar hourly rate mentality, what one can gain by running towards their fears and much more… Listen, learn and enjoy!

Coaching Testimonial
"My online love inspiration angel"
Submitted by: Patricia, USA, 21
To be honest, in the beginning, I thought it would be a waste of time. But since I've never seen a similar service in any other dating site, I decided to give it a try.
I always "thought" my profile was on point and I did not need any help to correct my page. I always had in my profile if someone is not attracted to my profile, then that's "their" loss.
BOY WAS I WRONG!!
I will never forget my first time using the Coaching Service I was introduced to my personal Dating Coach. Let me put it this way, if it was not for her I would have given up long time ago (even though I'm a new member).
She taught me so many things and gave me good advice, I did not want to stop chatting with her at all.
She opened my eyes to many possibilities when finding love. She is definitely an inspiration and I appreciate a whole lot. She is more than a Dating Coach to me; she is more of a close friend/guide to me. She is definitely my "online love-inspiration angel".
