I've read the book! It's getting a front row spot in my library! Best piece of advice ever! Ask my girlfriend: I just kept saying 'Oh my god, this guy is so right!'

It's getting a front row spot in my library! Best piece of advice ever!

Thx.

I love how DeMarco take no prisoners by polarizing Tim Ferriss, Suze Orman, and Dave Ramsey.

Hmmm, I thought I went soft on them.

Should be required reading!!

Best book I've ever read.

Well, I read about 3 chapters and instantly bought the book. Best book on this subject that I have ever read.

Thanks MJ for keeping it Authentic.

Thank you!

Definitely lived up to the hype.

I wasn't aware there was any hype!?!

Reading it for the 3rd time

Guess ya liked it.

Thanks for commenting. All icons added.

There is definitely hype, MJ. I may have created some of it... It's the first book I recommend to anyone wanting to start a business.

I have read it about 8 times. I get more out of it everytime I read it. Or listen to it. The audio is great.

 

[Thagomizer]

I have read it. Absolute goldmine

 

[awkwardgenius]

Just finished this morning. I gotta admit, I actually pirated this book at first, and about halfway through went and bought a legit copy, and recommended several friends to do the same. This is life-changing stuff, MJ.

Well thanks, that's the argument of not pursuing copyright infringers on the torrents ... "they" actually say illegal downloads are good for business. I appreciate that.

 

[Money mania]

This book is AMAZING. I read it a year ago and just re read it again. Thanks for the input.

 

[Eskil]

Well I've read this thing for sure..

I've read it 6 months ago. Reread it again this month. Absolute brilliant stuff. I'm actually taking lots of notes and am inspired to actually putting to use in new business. Note: I'm currently a slow lane

I'll have you know, I've recommended it to two others in the past couple days as well. Hell, I bought the electronic edition, and just ordered 3 hard copies to pass out to people I think could use it. Even wrestling with the idea of grabbing the audiobook to fill my hour-long commute. I'd have already pulled the trigger on that if it were on Audible, because the player lets you listen @ 3x speed.

What can I say? I like to listen to Fastlane fast while in the fast lane.

I have read the book!

I'm not going to lie I did the same thing initially, found the book in PDF format... however it was so good, I felt that it was definitely worth supporting. I ordered the paperback form from viperion on amazon, and also recommended that to my investor who bought another paperback copy from viperion as well.

Read the book, and now my friend is reading it as well! Can't wait to hear what she thinks

 

[Chris_Willow]

I've read it...TWICE!
Your personal story and the fast lane/slow lane analogy is what makes this an interesting read and such an eye opener.

Read it twice, and I'm sure I'll read it again. One of the best books ever in my humble opinion. Been recommending it to everyone who will listen .

 

[socaldude]

Read it twice, and I'm sure I'll read it again.

I read it twice. And everyone else should too. There is some awesome advice in this book that is best learned the easy way rather than the hard way though experience. The only way I think you could do that is to really read the book carefully and apply the principles to as many things as you can in life.

If you have major ADD like me. Take notes by putting concepts into your own words and highlight crap in the book.

Also TMF went up to its cover price of $23 on Amazon. So that means demand picked up and quite a few were sold recently =). Or supply went down, but i doubt it . Also im curious why people would buy from Amazon instead of the publisher amazon merchant account which is way cheaper .

You know something... me too. Lol. A few months later, I picked it up on Amazon. The hard copy, paperback. Gave it to my mom, who loved it.

I didn't think I'd end up being a regular here on the Fastlane Forum.

I'm still pro-file sharing, even from a business perspective. I'll go more into my stance when politics are allowed on the forum... which means, never.

Read the book!

 

[quamism]

Read it, Loved it, and recommend it regularly.

 

[JAJT]

Haven't been able to put it down. I'm 75% through it and will finish it tonight.

The book was one of the best wake-up calls I've received. I was days away from giving in completely and opening up slow-lane wealth-building accounts with the bank when your book slapped me in the face and said "how does this align with your goals?". It didn't. At all.

Thank you.

Read it, around the beginning of the year I believe as recommended to me by a fellow entrepreneur. Tbh, as someone who read a lot of these types of books when I was younger, I was skeptical. I quickly realized this book is in a different category all together... great read and great lessons. Love the anti-guru approach.

 

[Deleted11391]

Read it, loved it and left a review on amazon uk some time ago.

 

[skipper]

Read it

Finished it a week or two ago and have been browsing the forum ever since. It's addicting.

 

[JAJT]

Guess I'll post an update: Finished the last 25% a few days ago. It was really hard to put this down.

I've spent the last week tuned to "needs" like a machine. Everything I see and hear I try to think of in terms of opportunity. First time in my life I've been annoyed at how few people seem to "hate" things all of a sudden. What gives!?! Start hating things again!

This book had an unintended consequence: it stopped me dead cold from starting a business I was just about to jump in the waters with. I still WANT to start it (because it focuses on selling something that is a hobby of mine) but it has, as best I can tell, small scale/magnitude, slim margins, etc... A shame, but saved me thousands in inventory and frustration. If I can't think of a better idea relatively shortly I still may go through with it solely for the experience and feet-on-the-ground education but I'm leaning in other directions right now (like importing new, untapped products from China). We'll see where I go but one thing is for certain: I feel like my ship is in the water now instead of in the driveway. I now just need to set sail.

I bought the Kindle version. Love it. It will stay on the Kindle so I can read it again from time to time.

Same here. About 3 chapters in I was just floored. It reminds me of The Matrix, and MJ is Morpheus. Or 'They Live', once you put those special glasses on there is no turning back. Lol, I know, ridiculous comparison but the book educated and cemented what I've hazily felt has been the truth for some time. The most difficult part is figuring out a plan of action, but, I now have a firm number in mind and I'm continuing to educate myself.

 

[bane]

I finished the book last week! And thus it has brought me to your forum.

Thanks for the book MJ.

I think it does a great service to the world and furthermore thru the fact that you told it how it is i cant recommend this book enough.
I love how you showed me the concept of selling slowlane things via fastlane principles - that was a real eye opener that people dont often realise.

This book trumps all the other simliar style books ive read, such as Rich Dad poor Dad etc. Those books are good, but if i had to recommend only one book to read, i tell my friends this one now. I love it that you were already "made" before this book and were happy to show your true colours and feelings (espeically about other people) without a fear of not selling.

All in all, great job.
