Why We Can't Simply Print More Money
So you're walking around a volcano minding your own business, when you trip over a bag labeled "Infinite Money". (I know, I'm not very good with examples.) You open it up, and find thousands of dollars in different currencies, after taking out a stack of the money, you find out that the sack replenishes itself. Do you take the bag and store it away for a rainy Friday, or do you toss it down the volcano? This article isn't a trick question with cliche answers such as possibly lose all your friends, or have people kill you. (Even though those are perfectly good reasons.) We're here to talk about actual things that are extremely likely to happen.

4 of The Most Common Job Interview Questions
Sadly, there aren't people standing around passing out jobs like pancakes. You need to actually prove your worth in a interview to get one. In interviews, you're not simply sitting around talking about the weather, the guy wants to see if your worth the salary You don't throw money at a frog in a swamp to work the IT department at your company.
"Tell me about yourself."
This is one of the most popular questions a interviewer can ask you. One of the reasons it's so difficult, is because you're not sure what to say. Do you start talking about your childhood woes and accomplishments? Do you start buttering yourself up with all of your diplomas? Who knows?
This is a photograph of me a few days ago.
In reality, when they're really asking you is what you're capabilities are and your 'personality'; Can you push difficulties aside, and still get the job done without tearing your hair in a screaming fit? Because despite common belief, the world does not revolve around you.
When asked this question, be prepared to tell them about your personality, skills, job experiences, work history and work ethics. Stick to the facts, try not to start wandering off about your job back in 09' where you met the most good looking girl you've ever seen that later turned out to be your wife or something along those lines.

Tap water vs. Bottled Water
Yep, you knew this was coming. Disgusting dirty tap water right? Who knows where that comes from, I would rather drink my expensive rich-people water. Before you reach out and drink that "Fiji" or that "Dansani", hear me out.
Both tap water and bottled water are very similar in different ways, tap water is regulated by the EPA, or the Environmental Protection Agency, and bottled water is regulated by the FDA, or the Food and Drug Administration.

AdF.ly
Whats adF.ly You may ask? Well take out the period, add a space, suddenly you have "Ad Fly" so now we know it's a fly in which has a "Ad". No but seriously, its a URL shortener. The idea is that if you have a link thats pretty darn long and you don't want to end up posting a link with seventy characters, then this will certainly help you out.Also, no. I am not just reviewing a website that redirects your URLs. The beauty of this one is that, you can make some green for your pockets. I'm not talking illegal drugs now, you can make some extra money along the side if you oftenly post links.
