Tweet Normally I start off my quarterly Lending Club investment reports by stating “Every 3 months I write an update on my Lending Club investment, based on my patented LC investment strategy. And now that another quarter has passed, it’s time for an update.” I suppose I can’t quite claim that now, since I sorta kinda [...]
Tweet My job never ends. Literally. I’m only making $3.92/hour, less than minimum wage. There are no perks, no benefits, no pension. I work 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. I get no holidays or vacations off. I’m literally doing my job in my sleep. Hi, my name is BNL, and I’m an [...]
