I’ve read two articles in the last weeks asking the question if blogs are on their way out. They are not. But it’s getting harder for the new blog reader to find good blogs to read. The blogosphere got crowded in the last two years with a lot of so-called experts, people with unclear expertise […]

A few years ago, when i got my job at MPI, a few people outside the company found out very quickly what i did. I am against this type of things, i like to build now and brag about it later, not brag about it before doing it, how it’s customary in the Romanian internet. […]

Last week a had a lovely job offer. Twice the money i make now, plus benefits. I had to move back to Bucharest and work in a big company. I had to say no, but the man asked me to think about it. On the drive back home i started thinking. The money are never […]

America is debating the healthcare reform just about now. To the best of my knowledge, they do not have any healthcare coverage at all, and they must look into the private sector if the want to be assured. Of course, this is extra. That is not good. At the opposite side is Romania. We have […]

More on the debate debacle. People think i mind that my position as a top blogger is questioned. I do not. It’s natural for every 6 year old to try to outrun his father. So is the blogosphere. What? He is on top? I can take him, easily! And after years and years, none of […]

I was on the toilet, reading one of the few magazines i still buy on a regular basis. And realized why people are buying fewer and fewer newspapers. The web did not kill the press. Press killed itself. It was a combination of lack of professional journalism and news overload. Almost all of Romanian economic […]

I don’t know about you, but i get longer and longer emails. People just love to fucking write and write and write. No sense about my time at all. I am writing a long email, look at me! I am using a lot of fucking words just to express a simple thing. I developed a […]

In Romania, we are used to people shouting as hard as they can about their success. They do this, they do that, they just opened a new interactive agency, they’ve just rolled a new amazing campaign… Most of it is PR bullshit. And the people who do stuff do not brag about it too much. […]

Let’s say your combined fortune ranks in about 2 billion Euros. You have several businesses that are doing ok. You are 59 years old and made all this fortune in Romania, a second world country. What would you do? Slow down? Enjoy life? Retire?  I asked this question on my primary blog (in Romanian) and […]
