Thank you for that reminder. Do you have any advice that directly addresses my question?

I think what you’re doing is wonderful. Keep it up! I come at this from the opposite point of you as someone who, at a certain point in time, was perhaps a little bit of a big deal. Many years later I still get emails from people almost weekly saying how impactful my insight was or how inspirational watching my own and entrepreneurial journey was for them. I’m always glad to hear from them and I also 100 Percent of the time respond. Nothing creepy about it. You also never know who of those folks that have inspired you could use that little boost in that moment.

I’m a fan of Ram Dass - but not “fascinated”. To me he was like a spiritual comedian sharing the absurdity of this life. I find it’s helpful to get perspectives from far out people - perhaps so I don’t have to venture so far out myself. By no means does he get a pass for any transgressions.

Would you rather end up a middle class retiree that played it safe, or die an entrepreneur who worked on this they were passionate about regardless of the financial outcome? Personally, I’d rather die broke with a life full of adventures that sometimes payed out and sometimes didn’t, rather than comfortably numb in a retirement home on social security.

OP: I'm close to getting this to run but I get this error:

Traceback (most recent call last): File "./deletefb.py", line 3, in <module> from seleniumrequests import Chrome ImportError: No module named seleniumrequests

Any idea what's to be done?

Nice. Running Fb-Delete. I couldn't get the DeleteFB to work so I'm running yours instead. Any idea how long it takes if you got 1000s of posts?

Anyone have an idea for how to block this on your iphone? Perhaps content filtering glassboxdigital.com? Not sure if that would stop however it is that they're transmitting back to their servers.

Easy math = divide by 3 and multiply by 1800.

You’ve got a $99,000 job including the value of benefits and bonuses.

Berlin or Amsterdam would be my picks in Europe.

Bangkok or KL for Asia.

Austin for the US.

The reason is because advertisers are willing to spend more targeting a US user who had an average annual income of $50k where as one in India may have $5k. The user is 10x more valuable from a revenue standpoint so the cost you’re willing to bear to advertise to them is 10x etc

I use Dashlane for this purpose and have provided my wife access...the way it works is she only gets access if her request is not denied by me after 72 hours. Presumably on death, she requests access and 3 days later has control over my accounts.
