    Time to Franchise?

    What is a "business in a box"? I've never heard of that before.

    Time to Franchise?

    Hey that'd be awesome! I'm currently in my "6 weeks of very demanding work" right now, so once that ends I'll reach out to you! Thanks! You and the poster above both mentioned "business in a box". I've never heard of that. Is it basically just a franchise but only one other location instead of...

    The depressing story of Ronald Wayne

    MINDSET 
    Most definitely. My parents perfectly embodied the 9-5 life (retired now). While I realized early on that I wouldn't enjoy that type of life, they were great examples of people that loved it, as well as the routine/comfort it provided. And I think the word you're looking for is "content".

    The depressing story of Ronald Wayne

    MINDSET 
    Of course, there's no blame coming from me. He was clearly a very smart man. There was obviously no way to know what Apple would become at that point, and he made the best choice for him. Hindsight being 20/20 though, you can't help but think there's occasionally going to be that feeling of...

    The depressing story of Ronald Wayne

    MINDSET 
    Yeah he was a good deal older than Jobs and Wozniak I believe. Said he just couldn't keep up with their energy levels on a daily basis.

    The depressing story of Ronald Wayne

    MINDSET 
    I just found out about this guy recently, and his story is interesting, although it got me pretty bummed out. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ronald_Wayne Summary for those who don't want to read the wiki entry: -He co-founded Apple with Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak -In the company's first...

    Describe what being a "Millionaire" feels like.

    HOT! 
    Man, selling the Lamborghini...for some reason I picture the Lambo like your sidekick, or your symbol of achievement haha. Like Batman selling the batmobile. Also had no idea MJ Demarco wasn't your real name....don't know why but that never crossed my mind. Anyways, back to the topic. Not a...

    I guess you CAN make it by blogging

    Ah, well then. Looks like I'm a bit late on this one haha

    I guess you CAN make it by blogging

    EXECUTION 
    I agree. To be more specific, blogging gets some criticism due to those who think you can just pump out a few posts, sit back, and collect the checks. He's definitely done it the right way. Built up an audience over 6 years and use that audience to market his products to.

    I guess you CAN make it by blogging

    EXECUTION 
    I'm sure a lot of you here have heard of the blog Bold and Determined written by Victor Pride (just revealed his real name is Nick Kelly). It's another general lifestyle 'manosphere' type blog, and he sells a workout plan along with some other things. He gets some hate for being 'racist and...

    New biz trials and tribulations

    Hey Fastlaners, want to get a fun/informative thread going. Obviously many of you are very successful entrepreneurs, but you didn't start out that way. Whatever your business is, there was probably a learning curve in the business world for you. I'm hoping to start a discussion on some of your...

    When I was in college I worked for a guy who runs the same business, and was insanely successful with it, but had no plans to expand anywhere outside the state he's in. So, I realized that I could start up something similar, but I didn't want to compete with him, so I moved somewhere that I knew...

    Hahah, I see after re-reading what I wrote how that can be interpreted a couple different ways. Hopefully everyone knows what I meant!
