I need some advice. Big Think is looking at hiring me as an associate editor, full-time, back in NYC. This would still allow me to have the time to work on projects - especially since I wouldn't have to do anything else at all except for pursuing our objectives - and I don't see anything ethically wrong with the outlet, but I was hoping you could help me make sure that I'm not missing something.
Meanwhile, Robert Green seems intent on doing the web show or even possibly developing a television show. He seems to have the resources I would need to do such a thing right. He's also asking for me to write more sketches for Funny or Die, which is run by Adam McKay and Will Farrell. I've already helped him out with one but it was his premise; I've got script ideas that, executed with his resources, would almost certainly gain me attention from that crowd (they know who I am now, and Green is running around telling everyone about me just as Eisler is).
With the money from the associate editor position and my long practice at living without money, I could afford to jump start everything, hire someone to, frankly, manage my affairs and ensure that things I'd get done if I were more disciplined actually get done, as well as finance the Africa project, not to mention meet people with wealth and influence, both via Big Think and Green and Funny or Die etc.
Anyway, the Big Think thing is preliminary at this point and may not pan out, and maybe shouldn't, but I wanted to ask your opinion before I even start really thinking about it.
