    MJ DeMarco Interview at Eventual Millionaire

    EXECUTION 
    Just watched the interview. Some great content in there. Jaime has some great questions and of course the answers were worth the time spent watching the video. I love how MJ always moves and looks like he is going to lean into the camera. Shows that he is listening and passionate about what he...

    A word about my J.O.B.

    Don't blame those guys for getting paid 8.50 an hour, blame yourself for only getting paid 6.50. They are obviously doing something you are not, so figure it out and do the same or move on.

    Is $100,000k a year after tax SLOW LANE?

    FTE TAXES | REGS 
    You are obviously doing well compared to the national median you quoted, but why do you ask the question you asked? Do you feel comfortable and don't want to run the risk of losing it all by pushing yourself. Do you spend all your money? Do you invest? What are your long term plans? All these...

    Pure slowlane garbage- My experience with a investment "specialist"

    SLOWLANE 
    Good for you. I got out the stocks game a while ago because it is so unpredictable. The only stocks I invest in are through my Superannuation which is very similar to a 401k. I have to do this as it's law that 9% of your salary in Australia is paid into a Superannuation account. To me, it took...

    11 Poverty Traps You Must Escape if You Ever Want to be Rich

    EXECUTION 
    MJ, I'm curious to know how long it took you to write this article? There is quite a log of content and so I was also wondering whether you write the majority of this kind of article in one go and then a few edits or it takes you a few weeks to bring it all together. Doesn't really make any...

    The Retirement Gamble...

    This is what I do. I used to spend time investing in stocks and even looked at real estate. I was trying to cover too many angles and ended losing traction on my business. I spent a lot of time reading investment books which was interesting, but it took me away from my business. One day I sat...

    Paleo Lifestyle

    HOT! 
    I'm pretty much Paleo and I thought I knew a lot of 'stuff', but some really interesting topics on this thread. If you are Paleo and you have kids then I would recommend you get your kids into a Paleo lifestyle. I see so many parents give in to their kids and feed them absolute rubbish and if...

    EXECUTION 
    Hey Austin, you must have balls of steel! It's not something I would do personally, but fascinating to read what you are up to. I hope you achieve your goal and much more.

    Featured Case Study on 'I Will Teach You To Be Rich'

    EXECUTION 
    I've looked at the Earn 1K course before. How high would you rate the course? Anyway, congratulations. That is some achievement. It obviously didn't happen over night so kudos to you and your wife.

    How do you control what you eat?

    HEALTH 
    I control what I eat by learning about food and health. I've learnt so much about how bad most food (boxed food) is for you so I don't really touch it. I pretty much follow a Paleo lifestyle (I don't like to use the word diet as I'm not trying to lose weight and that's what most people associate...

    Sidewalkers read nothing but fiction?

    In my view, I like to stike a balance. Sometimes on the morning commute I feel tired and so I read fiction as I can't concentrate enough on business books. I probably read 70% non-fiction and 30% fiction. It's not all about work ;-) We all need to escape every now and then.

    [Video] Launching a Product by Tim Ferris

    Tim does receive some flak from various quarters, but I've always listened to the guy because he has some very interesting things to say and he clearly does his research. Thanks for sharing.

    HOW TO: Search for and buy domain names before your registrar does

    I've heard this a few times, but always thought this was a myth. May be the domains I enquired about were not that popular with other people because I'd done this a number of times and it was always still available days or weeks later and in a couple of cases months later.
