Things to Never Talk about!

I don't remember where exactly I had read it but this is a list of things that anyone should never-ever talk about.

1. How much you earn -- Do this if you want to become a target! You will not only have people jealous of you but also you'll be on everone's speed dial who needs money. This will also make you look like a dumbass trying to brag (and most people will think that you are lying! ).

People are never interested in how much you earn. What do you want by telling them about it? A ransom note for one of your kids?

2. Who you hate. - People love passing this kind of information to the concerned people just for fun! Why exactly would you want to reveal such kind of stuff?

3. Who you plan to take revenge on. - Opening your mouth about who you want to have F*cked Up will not only make you look dumb but also Feds take these kind of public threats pretty seriously!

4. The Crimes you have committed. - The only person who you'll impress with this kind of talk is FBI and Most people want to stay far away from shady characters!

5. Crimes your friends have committed. - Same as above!

6. The times you?ve been betrayed. - You were betrayed either because you were too trusting or insignificant . Do you really want to tell people about it?

7. Your Negative Traits. - Do you want people to know how they can use you? Well, if you can let people know this kind of stuff about you... well.


Any questions now about why you should not talk about this stuff, ever?

#7 can be talked about when in an interview for a job

E.g. I'm compulsively tidy and anal about punctuality, etc

Then you can go home assured that they are not considering you for the job you applied for but for the Post of Company President
