13 Handy Tips to Travel the World with Almost No Money

As far back as I can remember I always wanted to become a globetrotter for whom the journey is more important than the destination. But the society advised me that uprooting my life to do so would stray me from the old path to success. And so, I settled for a ‘responsible’ path to adulthood: attend a college and find a decent job to build a comfortable life. But after making all efforts to adjust my poor soul in the corporate life, I quit. I was happy to be out of the rat race, but somewhere in deep; I had a fear for my next voyage. At that moment, I realized, dreaming is easy, but the hard part is jumping. After all, we all have responsibilities: bills to pay and mouths to feed. That's why many passionate travellers decide to become a digital nomad in order to achieve their travel...

A Study Explains Why Rich and Successful People are Often Dishonest

Let's face it, we've all been wondering why so many rich, successful, powerful people are cheating, lying, disgraces. Is it that only unethical people make it to the top? At least one study indicates that this is not the case-it's that winning itself makes people behave unethically.

Scientists at Ben-Gurion University and The Hebrew University of Jerusalem had participants in a psychological study participate in a series of games, the first of which determined a "winner," and the second of which let that winner decide how much money they could award themselves.
