I'm thinking about self publishing my book. What would the easiest/most profitable way to do this?:

1.) Print copies and ship them from my home

2.) Sell it as an ebook

3.) Give it to a publishing house for on demand printing

Thank you.

i cannot state or express ANY anger at all in my marriage because there is only room for one person to ever be angry in this household--HIM. i told him 3 nights ago that i had anger building inside of me because i have recently discovered after 5 years of marriage all the lies he has told me...complete fabrications of events, portrayed himself as a war hero, lied about scars on his body, stating that they were from war injuries, many other lies, lies, lies. nothing about himself has turned out to be true...anyway, i generally told him i had anger toward him (didn't yell, don't ever cuss at him or accuse) just stated the facts...next day, he ripped me to shreds verbally, attacking me on every level, from motherhood to who knows what all! it was very traumatic. i can't take much more. he takes meds for bipolar disorder. he's 63, we sleep in separate rooms, he doesn't want affection or sex, and i'm basically fed up. is there ANY hope for this situation from a medical standpoint?

Some people encourage us to hope for miracles everyday of our lives.

If their wish came true, then statistically, miracles would become the norm. When miracles become the norm and become normal physical laws, they are no longer miracles. If everyone is s superhero then nobody is a superhero. The existence of the rich depends on the existence of a comparable poor class of people.

Then some people would say, "We should all believe in miracles because even child birth is a miracle." That is just aliasing the meaning of the word because I might as well say, "Hey, I believe in miracles because my being able to shake my leg or suck my thumb is a miracle too."

What is Miracle? Can it be defined as a statistical abberation that the Almighty deign to incur as an expense to normality only under dire circumstances? What about "The gods must be crazy" phenomenon? Like a parent did something ordinary but the toddler thought it was a miracle.

I'm looking to get involved into real estate after reading many books such as the Rich Dad Poor Dad Series, Real Estate Riches, Nothing Down and Real Estate Negotiating - but I have a few questions.

1.) If I apply for a loan, would the loan be in my mom's name or in both of our names?

2.) Where can I find my local real estate investing club?

Thank you.

After World War I, defeated Germany saw its money become worthless. At one point, a person needed to a wheelbarrow to carry all the currency required to purchase a single loaf of bread. In the early 1990s, the German government refused to lower the relatively high interest rate it paid to depositors. This policy negatively affected the economies of other nations in Europe and elsewhere, and many governments were very angry with the Germans. Nevertheless, the Germans continued the policy to protect themselves from the possibility of...

I was told the answer was Runaway Inflation. I can't seem to understand this answer, though. From the question, it seems inflation was already an issue if a person had to gather large amounts of money to buy bread. Why would high interest rates protect them from inflation? Isn't this spreading more money into the economy? And why was it negatively affecting the economy of other nations?

As we all know, there have been major conflicts on this forum, and I have been apart of most, along with the majority of you. Those who don't know what I'm talking about- Kudos to you!
I have developed a set of reasonable "guidelines" for this forum, if I may be so bold. I know that I have no authority, nor do I consider myself above anyone else, I am just trying to make life easier for all of us so we can enjoy the important things (our horses!)

Here are my suggestions:

-If you want to know how cute your horse is or how good of a rider you are with no critisism allowed, please put somewhere in your title- Good/nice opinions only. (though really, I don't believe we should have those questions :D)
-If you will accept critisism, you don't need to put anything special in your title, but if you wish, you may put critisism allowed.
-If you want to tell of an accomplishment, DO NOT use a question in your title, put something like: "Guess what!?", or better yet, put it under your

I can't believe how my understanding of Science and other philosophies have led me to understanding that the world is bigger than all of us. It has opened up my world and left me with only the guilt that I put on myself for being a jerk, rather than carrying around the worlds problems. I was a hardcore christian. You don't even want to know. Most christians couldn't even handle it, but I've been an atheist for about a year now, and I am absolutely amazed that I am vilified, and discriminated for it. When I was a xian, I thought we were the biggest targets. Not so! I am very comfortable like I said with my beliefs or lack thereof, but I now know that Xians can never say that they have it rough because of they're beliefs, I now know that. I think it would be great for there to be an open dialogue (non-combative) between us all, but it can't happen, a belief is something very strong that people take instant offense to when challenged usually. Everyone has to figure it on they're own!
