Almost Anything Goes Q&A with Michael “MJ The Terrible” Johnson:
1. What was the first video game console you had? Kevin Price Indianapolis, IN
MJ: My first video game console was an original Nintendo. My Dad bought it for me when I had my tonsils taken out.
2. What is an effective way to protect my identity online? Chris Turner New York, NY
MJ: Check out Aura.com
3. What email provider do you recommend for maximum privacy and security? Nate Lewis Los Angeles, CA
MJ: I think Proton Mail is the best email service provider for maximum privacy and security.
4. What do you think is the best way to make a decision? Reese Walker N/A, N/A
MJ: The best answer to almost any question is, it depends, because it is nearly impossible to consider all variables, in all situations. That said, I learned from a mentor of mine that in order to make the best decisions, you should look to the 6 simple serving men. The 6 simple serving men are who, what, why, where when and how. If you know those 6 things, you can make a fully informed decision.
5. How can I check to see if a website is safe to visit/interact with? Julia Bell Kansas City, MS
MJ: Here is a website you can visit to check to see if a website is safe – https://sitecheck.sucuri.net/
6. Is there a free way to find out if emails I send are being opened/read by the recipients of my emails? Jose Lopez San Antonio, TX
MJ: Yes. One way to check is by using an email tracking service. Getnotify.com has a free service that notifies you when the emails you send get read. A number of similar free and paid services exist.
7. Do you think using online cloud storage or offline storage devices is the better way to store your data? Owen Fowler Seattle, WA
MJ: Both. I think using both is your best bet. If your cloud storage account was hacked or you lost access to it, having an offline backup on an external hard drive would prevent you from losing your data. The reverse is true as well. If you lost your external hard drive or it was destroyed somehow, etc., having a cloud backup would ensure that you don’t lose your data.
8. How can I find out if my email account has been hacked? Danna Robles Pittsburg, PA
MJ: If you think your email account has been hacked, I highly recommend changing your password immediately. Make sure you are using a two-step security login method as an extra security layer. I would also recommend checking out https://haveibeenpwned.com/ to see if your email account/email account provider has been compromised.
9. Is it possible to verify if an email address exists without sending an email to the address and seeing if it bounces back? Josh Larsen N/A, N/A

MJ: Visit this website and search for the domain name you are interested in knowing the owner of – https://who.is/
11. Do you use a transcription service to transcribe interviewers? Which one do you use? Ron Hardin Cleveland, OH

12. How can I get the word out cheap or free about my revolutionary new survival product? Rick Bradshaw Louisville, KY

I would like to hire a full-time content creator eventually, but I can’t afford it right now. Do you have any tips on how I can increase the content on my blog without breaking the bank until I can afford to hire a full-time content creator? My blog is about finance, specifically about crypto currencies, and Forex. Thanks MJ. Ben Proctor New York, NY
MJ: You may not need to hire a full-time content creator. You may find what you are looking for on gig websites. Here are a couple of gig websites for you to look into- Freelancer.com and Upwork.com
15. Are you worried about the United States being invaded militarily by China? Bill Henry Indianapolis, IN
MJ: No. The United States has a highly armed population. Private citizens in the US own approximately 400 million firearms. The US is also a very large country geographically, with many different types of terrain. These are just two of the many reasons why I am not worried about China invading the United States militarily.
16. How important is it to have a supportive wife/partner? Mario Gomez Fresno, CA

19. What do you think people in the business world say about you and your work the most? Larry Solomon Hartford, CT
MJ: They probably say that I am the guy that does the jobs that have to get done.
20. Are you more of a Marilyn or a Jackie type of guy? Ann Fuller Huntsville, AL
MJ: They both were powerhouse women that we are talking about 60 years after the Jackie vs. Marilyn debate first started. I would have to say for a hook up/situationship, I would have to go with Marilyn. For a relationship, Jackie all the way.
21. Any tips on how to become successful in business? Doug Fowler Cleveland, OH
MJ: Always fulfill your contracts.
22. I am worried about accidentally visiting the dark web. How can I protect myself from visiting the dark web? Robin Sweeney Bowling Green, KY
MJ: You don’t have to worry about accidentally visiting the dark web. To visit the dark web, you would first have to find the Tor browser and download it.
23. Do you hate your ex-wife? Rose Lugo San Jose, CA
MJ: No. Without my ex, I never would have met Malia. Without being married and getting a divorce from my ex, I wouldn’t have made the money from divorce derivatives/divorce casualty insurance/wedlock insurance I made that I was able to use to build and grow Masters of Money LLC so quickly. Every experience in our lives, both good and bad, helps to make us who we are.
24. Who is better in bed, Caroline Pierce or Malia? Malia Johnson, N/A, N/A
MJ: Obviously, Caroline Pierce knows what she is doing in the bedroom, but with her sex was just sex. No offense to her. With Malia, she is the love of my life. It is not just sex. It is connecting on every level, which maximizes the bedroom experience. I choose Malia. She is my one and only forever in any and all ways. Period. End of story.
25. Have you ever banged a partially paralyzed chick? Matthew Ellison Los Angeles, CA
MJ: No.
26. Do you have pictures of your childhood home in Akron? I would like to see the house you grew up in. Thanks. Katy Long St. Louis, MS

27. Is it worth it to pursue a career in intelligence? Elliot Nash Boston, MA
MJ: It depends on the skills, interests, and goals of the person considering a career in intelligence, but overall, I would have to say yes. The training is out of this world, and the skills you learn can help you in all areas of your life.
28. Do you support the death penalty? Rita Ortiz San Mateo, CA
MJ: No. There have been too many cases where it was found out later that a person that was convicted of a crime that was later proven to be innocent by either DNA evidence, witness testimony, prosecutorial misconduct is discovered, etc. Also, if the person is guilty of a heinous crime, why give them an easy way out? They don’t call it hard time for nothing.
29. Do you know what the difference between Europe and America is? Jack Oliver Manchester, England
MJ: I am guessing part of your question was cut off because it is pretty vague. I’m not sure what you were going to try to mention as a difference, but here is one of the differences I noticed when I was taking a Trafalgar tour across Western Europe in 2009.
30. Is artificial intelligence a risk to humankind? How big of a risk? Yasu Nakamura Tokyo, Japan
MJ: Right now, I think the risk is relatively low. We use artificial intelligence as a tool. We are in control of it so to speak. Three to five years from now, if artificial intelligence starts doing the thinking for us, that is the point where it could be a big risk to humankind. The Terminator movies are Hollywood fiction, but if artificial intelligence becomes “self-aware” and decides to eradicate humans, it could be very effective at wiping us out. Hopefully we as a society manage artificial intelligence properly.
