On This Week's Feedback Friday, We Discuss:
  • You accidentally sent your roommate a message meant for someone else in which you were indirectly complaining about them. Is there a way to gracefully recover from this faux pas?
  • Even though you seem to hit it off when meeting new people, you can't seem to form close friendships and make them stick. What's missing from the formula?
  • As a young couple about to embark on a life of wedded bliss, what's the fairest way to handle finances from the start -- especially when one person makes considerably more money?
  • Here's Jordan's strategy for investing money with compound interest.
  • If you could ask only one question of a person you perceive to be successful, what would it be -- and from Jordan's perspective as an interviewer, how should you ask it?
  • What are some unexpected things you can encounter when moving to a new city -- especially when you feel like you haven't prepared enough in advance for the changes immediately ahead?
  • What's the best way to heat up cold contacts into bona fide network connections?
  • Is it worth it to stay at your current job for another eight years to secure your retirement finances, or is now the time to take on your own business venture?
  • Though you relocated three years ago for a job you still consider decent, you miss family and friends back home. What are the pros and cons of moving back now?
  • Life Pro Tips: [Jason] Treat the halfway point on your gas tank as empty. [Jordan] Use Rebump for a 33 percent better response rate with your emails.
  • Recommendation of the Week: Abducted in Plain Sight
  • Quick shoutouts to Taylor Moser and Rick!
  • Have any questions, comments, or stories you'd like to share with us? Drop us a line at friday@jordanharbinger.com!
  • Connect with Jordan on Twitter at @JordanHarbinger and Instagram at @jordanharbinger.

We also had Nathan Latka talking about how he uses leverage and hustle to accomplish a lot of

0:59.8

really unique and amazing things for a guy in his 20s. He really is good at negotiating and

1:04.5

sort of playing one side off of another. There's lots to learn this week on the show. I also write

1:09.7

every so often on the blog. The latest post is the negative consequences of accentuating the positive.

1:15.9

In other words, I do a little takedown of positive thinking. I really don't love this movement where

1:20.8

everybody's got to be positive all the time. I did a self-help takedown a while ago with Gabriel

1:25.4

Misrahi if you heard that deep dive. This is somewhat similar in terms of it being a takedown of

1:31.5

why people are always supposed to be positive and happy. It's just not true. It's not based in

1:35.5

science. I think that it was important to expose a little bit of that. You can find that at

1:40.8

jordanharbinger.com slash articles. Make sure you've had a look and a listen to those shows

1:46.5

in that article. Of course, our primary mission is to pass along our guests and our experiences

directly with you. That's what we're going to do today and every Friday. In fact, here on feedback

Friday, you can reach us Friday at jordanharbinger.com. As always, we've got some fun ones. I want to

get right to it, Jason. Hey, Jordan and team, I accidentally sent my roommate a message. I meant
