I live by numerous rules, none of which I’ve found to be more important than this one: “Never participate in an activity that will save you or make you less money than if you simply spent those extra hours working at your actual job.” So far this rule has protected me from participating in the following activities:
- Providing product feedback to market research teams for various hair care products and lotions.
- Working at a bar.
- Standing in line at Walmart all night to save $100 on a television.
So far so good.
