Is Evidence-based Medicine a Joke?
The medical profession often brings to mind the image of the proverbial ostrich: burying its head in the sand, hoping problems will disappear. While doctors claim to practice evidence-based medicine, there is a glaring oversight when it comes to mental illness. They routinely ignore the growing evidence that our thinking itself is a hypnotic process—that we are, in a sense, continually self-hypnotising through our inner dialogue. The profession’s lack of understanding about hypnosis and its mechanisms results in a reluctance to investigate this mystery. Rather than exploring how ego and self-hypnosis shape mental states, many in the field shy away, perhaps because it requires confronting their own egos. This avoidance is neither scientific nor professional.

Why Kids Are Learning to Make Money Early

These so-called “millionaire camps” are teaching children as young as eight how to earn, invest, and manage wealth—skills traditionally reserved for adults. The growing popularity of these programs has parents and educators debating whether such early financial education is beneficial or exploitative.

What Is Truly Passive Income
“Passive income” is one of the most talked-about ideas in personal finance. Scroll through social media or business blogs and you’ll see claims that anyone can make money while they sleep.

However, income alone doesn’t tell the full financial story. Two people can earn the same salary and still have drastically different levels of wealth. The key reason lies in the difference between **income** and **net worth**.
