    Why i lost 6 figures and loved it!

    MINDSET 
    Thanks for posting this, it really resonates with me. I recently quit my great paying, stable job for the very reasons you mention here. I was tired of trading comfort for happiness. We only have one life to live so why waste it being bored and content.

    Good one! I just watched the movie "Wanted" again this weekend and I really enjoyed all the jabs at the slowlane. Stuck in the slowlane http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A569cviDq1E Time to make a change http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iK0-76FChfk I loved how there were random self...

    Oliver Emberton's answer to Life Advice: How do I get over my bad habit of procrastinating? - Quora Darn you, Rex! Humans like to think we're a clever lot. Yet those magnificent, mighty brains that allow us to split the atom and touch the moon are the same stupid brains that can't start an...

    Need some feedback for my website

    Hi Jinso, I like the site and the idea. There is lots of potential since you can easily justify money savings instead of spending. I believe the only thing that would make me hesitant to sign up or take action is that I didn't really see anywhere that would make me feel warm and fuzzy about who...

    Cheaper Alternative To T&C Contracts? [Fastlane Road Block!]

    Don't delete the thread. Instead, please keep us updated on how this goes. Creating a proper ToS and/or privacy policy is definitely one of those scary barriers once you hit it.

    A Better Alternative to College?

    HOT! 
    No doubt. I'm a big proponent of building technical skills. The majority of my skills were learned outside of the college classroom. My warning is to not worry so much about the dangling carrot of "x% of graduates make $y per year", and instead focus on the quality of the knowledge and...

    A Better Alternative to College?

    HOT! 
    I know you are saying this half-jokingly, but I can attest to the truthfulness of the statement. I currently make a lot more than this doing programming as a job, yet here I am on the same forum planning my escape. If you really have the entrepreneur spirit which drives you here, I can tell...

    Life of a Sidewalker

    Maybe he only allows himself to watch a certain amount of TV per week, so he has a list to plan his time better. Yes, that's unlikely, but why judge or worry about him? There is a lot of irony in calling a "co-worker" a "sidewalker". Which is worse, printing out a list of TV shows or taking a...

    Need help in validating my idea...

    IDEA 
    Yes, it's a decent idea, but developers don't like to pay a lot of money for something that is relatively easy with libraries available in their language of choice. That said, I know that Blitline offers image processing as a service and is also available as a Heroku addon. Blitline - Image...

    Could use your help launching a marketplace for business services...

    I saw your newer thread asking for graphics designers, and then found this original thread about your new site. I really like the concept and the design of LaunchAStartup. How did you get over 10k twitter users before launch?

    Anyone have advice on setting up an LLC in California

    Yes, you can file in another state that doesn't require you to be a resident. I did a lot of research on this before I decided to stick with my home state of Kentucky. Most people who choose to file for out of state corps tend to go with the more business and tax friendly states like Nevada...

    Making excuses not to begin your entrepreneurial journey

    MINDSET 
    Great read: Oliver Emberton's answer to Entrepreneurship: How does one know if one is making excuses or having valid reasons not to begin their entrepreneurial journey? - Quora I like the quote "I want something, all excuses are now invalid!"

    ADVICE: starting a niche blog. Affiliate marketing,etc

    MARKETING 
    You don't need to transfer the domain to hostgator to use their web hosting. Read their docs for support on how to set it up or transfer the domain if you still want. Just do a basic Wordpress install. You can change themes and install plugins as needed. Focus on creating content and getting...

    Video Pivot: Value for ALL Entrepreneurs

    EXECUTION 
    I like the idea! At one time I actually had a subscription to Soundview Executive Summaries and really enjoyed it. However, I am not a fan of large walls of text slide presentations, especially in video format. Perhaps it's just me because of the amount of grueling meetings with boring...

    How do I change my avatar picture?

    Yeah, I see that now. I think my problem is that I kept looking for a way to edit it from My Profile instead of Settings. Thanks Alana!

    Your Entrepreneurial "Come to Jesus" Moment? (FTE!)

    NOTABLE! MINDSET FTE 
    As I watched my first child play with big eyes, big heart, and big dreams, I had a vision of him graduating college, getting a decent job, and then telling me, "Well Dad, I did it. The job is just so-so, but in 35 years, I will be able to live my life the way I want to." Seeing how much fun a...

    How do I change my avatar picture?

    I see that now, but I don't think it was there when I was in parked status. If that is the case, I guess you can still get around it by going to the direct link. Oops.

    [Progress] Growing an Internet Business

    EXECUTION 
    I agree that the banner speed is too fast. There is also something about the banner picture with the 3 steps that makes the site look too cluttered. The other banner pics with the blue background look clean and professional, but the first one needs some work. I'm also interested in why you...
