SPI 046 : Building a Lucrative Business with No Ideas, No Expertise & No Money with Dane Maxwell In this session of The Smart Passive Income Podcast, I invited Dane Maxwell from The Foundation to come onto the show and chat with us about his approach to building an online business, one that doesn’t include the need to become an expert in any particular niche (what?!), any money or start up funds (double what!?), or even any ideas! In fact, in the interview, Dane talks about how he never starts a business with an idea and how that can actually hold you back. Sounds crazy, right? He doesn’t start with an idea, and he’s not interested in becoming an expert at anything other than understanding the pains and problems that people are having in a particular market, and that’s exactly what he does. You don’t need to worry about ideas. The amount of information in this podcast is incredible, and it’s obvious that Dane is operating on an entirely different level when it comes to teaching online business. As some of you know, I’ve had my run at software before, but it was a failure.

A Treatise on Miracles by History’s Most Famous Atheist - Issue 4: The Unlikely The Scottish philosopher David Hume was in many ways an enemy of the unlikely. The quintessential empiricist of his age, Hume’s 1748 treatise, An Enquiry Concerning Human Understanding, put forward the groundbreaking argument that careful reasoning on the basis of sensory experience is the only true ground of knowledge. In doing so, he called into question the validity of many improbable claims advanced in religious texts, folklore, and historical accounts of times past and lands far away. In this short excerpt from a section of the treatise, titled “Of Miracles,” Hume proffers what he takes to be an ingenious method for discerning whether reports of strange and unfamiliar events should be believed—most especially, those that seem to be miraculous. He notes that in order to appeal to the court of experience as the arbiter of truth, we are often forced to rely on the testimony of others. —Dehlia Hannah Nothing is esteemed a miracle, if it ever happen in the common course of nature.
