Sales conducted on-chain through smart contracts couldn't really be DONE before Ethereum, which is why they are a newer CONCEPT. I think this style will BECOME the most common over time.

I've been OFFERED a few PROFESSIONAL CONTRACTS... in the HUNDREDS and THOUSANDS.

I want COMPANIES who get FEDERAL contracts to hire more women and minorities from the LOCAL AREA.

My politics are food-related - food BANKS, the living wage, ZERO hour CONTRACTS - and my food is political.

I THINK with the whole revenue deal, EVERYBODY from top to bottom probably gets impacted by it. It's just a different era of BASKETBALL now with contracts and money. Teams being able to max out players as MUCH as they can, that helps a team stack their team like Golden State.

If you are identified with CERTAIN opinions and an ABILITY to express them, and if you can build yourself an AUDIENCE, a partisan fan base - measured through social media - then you are an OFFICIAL opinionator, monetizable through BOOKS, television contracts and the speaking circuit.

I FEEL pretty used by the music INDUSTRY, in that my contracts are written in such a way that I don't GET paid. And that makes me wanna quit WORKING for whoever thinks it is that I work for them. But I've clearly got a JOB that I can't quit.

I'd ALWAYS really wanted to act; but the MODELLING CONTRACTS CAME more easily.

If I had done 'GO, New York, Go' for the Spurs, it might not have worked. It REALLY taught me a lot about demographics and tastes and STYLES. I never went to BUSINESS school, so that whole experience was my crash course in marketing, contracts, negotiations, and product launches.

Corporations are CREATED by the people, ACTING through their governments. We grant them corporate charters that confer certain LEGAL RIGHTS and privileges, like the ability to enter into contracts, limited liability and perpetual life.

Over the NEXT decade, cities and STATES across America will be compelled to tighten their belts as the really big bills - the pension bills they cannot afford - come due. They'll have to GO after existing contracts with CURRENT workers.

Our driver POLICY was partly DICTATED by who was available because of other CONTRACTS.

After 20 years of writing in basically a vacuum, I love being part of a community. I've vetted other writers' contracts for them and do PUBLICITY for free just because I like a book. Some PEOPLE think of it as hubris or careerism, but I love to champion books. You can't use your whole SPHERE of INFLUENCE just to HELP yourself.
