What follows are a small collection of tips and tricks that you may use to get ahead in life, to succeed, and to achieve victory where you have previously been failing with great success. Should these tips benefit you, I only ask that you pay things forward and send me a small check for at least 10% of your annual income. Failing that, I could use a haircut and I have a very strong premonition that you own scissors.

That is, at present, all the tips and tricks I can think of. I hope you are able to put these gems of wisdom to use and make your life a shining example for those around you!
People often ask me for advice on life, and I often tell them that I am not a valid source of knowledge and that they should go climb into an unmarked barrel. I tell them this because I am greedy and I like to hoard my secrets to success, keeping them safe within my meaty bowels. This week, however, I have had a change of heart.

Because of this grave realization, I am now prepared to open my vault of secrets to you, the horrifying monstrosity reading this equally monstrous website.
