Read the book, and it changed my whole mindset! I especially like the parts where you stress the point of separating your accumulation of wealth from your time. Will definitely be giving it multiple reads throughout my journey. Thanks for putting things into terms we can understand MJ!

Hello team, I too have read TMF . I shall read it again as it was an engaging book and a slap to the face with a giant dolphin from the shores of Miami, but first I will be gifting my original copy to my brother and buying another as I am one of the weird dudes who wants the one with the Lamborghini on the cover lol...opposite to what the others out there wanted....I'm pretty sure that goes against the millionaire mindset and falls under a similar mindset to the $80 Million NBA players who go broke due to buying several things the same that they don't need and then some. But come on, surely I can buy 2 of the same book and giving one to my bro. Spreading the good word is a just cause!

It is ironic that a lot of the "fake help" gurus don't like the book or yourself, yet you are probably one of the very few millionaires (the others are from the UK or American billionaires) I trust. All the others talk fluff equivalent to toilet air that has not escaped out of an open window for days. You back up your findings and claims where others just give people "false hope". I guess that is one of the differences I noticed. You don't give hope to people, you slap them across the face with a giant dolphin from the shores of Miami and tell them in other words to "get off your a$$, reality check your self and get to fckin work!" nice one mate!

Hi MJ!

I've read your book last year around this month February. Since then, I've been crazy venturing into what seemed to be opportunities and aiming to be free from this rat-race. Although it's kinda tough here in the Philippines to be at the fastlane but I'm pretty determine to reach that 4 to 9 years from now.

Your book was an eye opener for me. It's like a thick bible slapped to my face and then woke me up confirming all the ideas I had back then to be right.

Thanks as lot.

PS.

I'm not fond of reading but hell you sum up everything there is to know to be successful in life in one book.

And here I was thinking "how do I get "read TMF " under my username?" Of course I read it! On my second read now. Thanks for the book MJ. It changed my reality and put me on the path to change my life.

Using my first post to say I've read the book.

Love the way it was written & how so many of the metaphors can easily be applied to other parts of life.

Just finished the book.
It was both confronting and uplifting at the same time. Confronting because it's hard to realise that you were born and raised a Sidewalker. And then to realise that your struggles to move out of that lane is yet another setback called the Slowlane.
But, it was uplifting because it feels good to know the wrongness in the pit of your stomach is real and not just you being a "dreamer".

Now it's time to execute and get the @#%$ out of this lane!

Thanks MJ.

I finished reading it this morning after buying it in January (slow but steady reader here). It gave me the reassurance I needed to build my own vehicle, and also gave me more information than two years of blog reading and asking around ever got me. I'll be revisiting this book many times in 2015 alone; that much I know. Just wish I got my hands on it years ago, but better now than never!

And now...for the "What's Next?" portion of the process. Looking forward to sharing and learning from (and with!) all of you.

I'm only on chapter 9 of TMF and so far it is amazing. It has given me a different perspective on wealth and what I need to do to get away from sidwalking and slow laning. I have a crazy schedule juggling work, school, and kids, but I try to read the book every second I get. I just can't put this book down. This forum has an abundance of information from knowledgable individuals, that's why I'm logged on all day. Thanks, MJ for sharing all the valuable information.

I have read the Millionaire Fastlane , book is so good I kept on reading.
I knew pieces of the equation but never the whole puzzle, MJ explains it completly.
Loved the part about the Guru's and it's true.

I will be definitely be rereading this book many times in my off times.
It changed my perception of certain things work in the world Sidewalk, Slow lane, Fast Lane.

Thank you for writing this book and being honest, unlike some Gurus.
It has given me a road map to try my entrepenurial Journey and changing my oil with new Learning.

Regards,
Nordien

I read the book just before joining the forum and enjoyed it very much. I've already re-read it once and am re-rereading it again. I would've posted this sooner, but I wasn't aware of this thread.

Finally bought the book and smashed through it. Took a break from posting on this forum a while ago and just lurked from time to time but have decided to commit to my goals again and this book has definitely reignited that spark.

Incredible book, many new perspectives learn't. So keen to put all this in to action.
Hit me so hard when i realised all my ideas were always directed back to me and my needs rather than trying to fill the needs of others and provide value to them. Chasing the money and the final event rather then actually searching for a way to create value and following a process.

Incredibly excited about the journey ahead. Expect to see me on the inside.
Cheers.
