Juste Pour Rire: The Comedy of Dr. Ken Jeong

Posted on March 26, 2010 by

I watch the show Community where Ken Jeong plays a Spanish professor, Senor Chang.

Before becoming a comedian, he practiced medicine…he still does between comedy gigs.

“I am a fully licensed California boarded doctor. Not an acupuncturist bitch. Don’t hate alright, don’t hate. Keep it real.

I got a day job just like you guys alright. Same thing. Though I talk a little different at work. Hi I’m doctor Jeong, I’ll be your primary care provider, me love you long time.”

College Graduates And Career Choices

Posted on March 24, 2010 by

Oh and stay away from garbage insurance/financial planning jobs. These are bad. If you are 22 and being courted by a company to be a ‘financial planner’ it simply means they want you to bug all your friends and family about their shitty life insurance policies. You aren’t Gordon Gecko and you aren’t managing a hedge fund, no matter how cool it might sound at first.

I Created THC –The Hangover Cure

Posted on March 22, 2010 by

I occasionally end up in some sort of office setting for meetings . . . and it scares the hell out of me and reminds me that if I don’t keep hustling, I will have to go back to that lifestyle. That’s all the motivation I need.” Continue reading →

I Left Medicine And Started My Own Jewelry Line

Posted on March 10, 2010 by

Why change?

It’s a much more flexible lifestyle, I get to be creative in the designs, materials, promotional materials, the method of doing business. I get to create the whole thing just the way I want it. Not that it’s easy, but I feel very passionate about it and much more fulfilled in being able to be creative and open to many possibilities in my work. I also get to talk with lots of other very creative and inspired people in my day-to-day work, which I find motivating.

I Am Big Doer. I Hate Talking About Things. I Like To Execute

Posted on March 9, 2010 by

I also get the misconception that I must be like Ari Gold from Entourage. The minute I sign a client, sponsors hate me because I get my clients paid. However, for this business I am actually relatively easy to deal with and am reasonable in my asking. I want my clients working and don’t like to get caught up in fruitless negotiations. Some people won’t even give me a chance to prove this which is fine as long as my clients are happy. When I am curing cancer (there is actually a Matt Meyerson who researches at Harvard working on this as we speak) I will take my job seriously.
