    MJ,

    Read the book. Twice actually. I'll probably end up reading it again at some point just to keep it fresh.

    Let me say that it was a GREAT book. The writing really hit home with me, and I feel like I'm in a similar position you faced when you were 26. I have little money and no solid direction. I know i can accomplish great things, I just needed a little guidance and your book is providing it. I'm already thinking and seeing things from a completely different viewpoint.

    Talk is cheap though, i know. Process. Process. Process.

    Thanks again for your contribution and helping people see the slow-lane for what it is,
    Adam

    A great book with some fresh ideas... I've literally read 100s of books about starting businesses/saving money etc.... this is the only book I ever read about not relying totally on long-term financial investments for wealth building. I now make my living with my online business but there was always an ongoing fear about not having anything invested in a ROTH or so forth. Now, I can relax a bit and concentrate more on building my business and other business ideas that can result in a huge payday that I can then further invest. Also liked the example of the free $6 chicken and people treating time like it is infinite! Great job writing something unique!

    Just finished the book and realized that although my business pays me well its also keeping me in the slowlane. I hope to change that!

    Default Read it. Live it!

    I love this book!! I've recommended, and even bought it, for two people.
    I have probably several hundred books I've read over the last few years (3 bookshelves full).

    This is one of the best I've read. Period. I can't tell people about it fast enough!

    I am selfish because deep down, I don't want to tell people about the book. The information is so good I want to keep it all for myself! Seriously. Nevertheless, I have recommended it to several people and it is by far number one on my list of personal finance books. And I have read a LOT of personal finance books and subscribe to many personal finance blogs. Way above the countless books and web posts I've read that all spit out the same old sh!t! It even goes on a deeper, psychological level by analyzing various aspects of your life and relationship with money/wealth and shows the few ways to achieve wealth in a short amount of time.

    I am currently trying the "rental" method by accumulating houses (I have 2) and fixing them up to rent out. I plan on tapping the equity or selling to upgrade to bigger units and perhaps eventually commercial real estate. I am also looking into the various ways to make money online and will definitely start something once I have a break from these houses. While it may not be super fastlane, I feel confident it will help me achieve my goals. Thanks so much MJ, you have changed my life for the better!

    I am half way through the book and I must say that before I was really hesitant of doing things big. I thought that having a small business is enough for me to get rich. But I was wrong, i love the law of effection, it really opened my eyes.

    Proud owner! This book blows my mind. I'm definitely going to put everything in use and re-read it at least a few times to understand everything better.

    Finished the book on my ipad a couple of days ago. Absolutely loved it....when I head into my first year of college next fall I will definitely take computer science to build a foundation of knowledge that will help me build my first website. The next four years will definitely be spent trying to figure out my fastlane plan and hopefully begin executing it sooner rather than later. Good thing I found this book now! Good luck everyone and thanks MJ! Perfect timing haha.....

    Have now read the book three times, reading it a fourth...I was browsing my favorite free e-book site a couple weeks ago and downloaded it as a pdf. I read it straight through in one sitting, and needless to say, I was just as blown away as most people on here. I read it again over the next couple of days after that, and then decided that changing my attitudes toward people that have already achieved success was important...so I decided to compensate you for the excellent information instead of just stealing it, and I bought the book off the iBook store and read it again on my iPad (ever heard of a free download site converting a downloader into a buyer? Me neither...)

    Now I'm rererereading it, trying to keep the information fresh and the drive alive, which is why I signed up for the forum. Will be posting some questions soon, really like that you actually participate in the forums MJ.

    Just want to say thanks for turning my life around...within a few years I will post my fastlane success story!

    Great book MJ. Sometimes we need someone to just say go there and do something now instead of just thinking about doing things all the time. Enough thinking for me, time to get moving. Thanks for the to-the-point writing style. See you in the fastlane!!!

    I too have read the book. Excellent advice. Currently have 1 business, after reading the book I feel like I am making better decisions on how to expand and in which direction.

    I just finished the book yesterday. I read it on the kindle and before I finished reading it I ordered a hard copy to keep around and read again.

    As someone who has been trying to start my own business this book really opened my eyes to what kind of business I want to be in. I have always thought I need to go with my passion and I need to do something that I am already good at. All my previous ventures were trading my time for money with no way to get in the fastlane. The bad news for me is I feel like I am starting over, the good news is I now listen to peoples problems and try to think of ways to solve them.

    I cant finish the book, I swear, I pick it up, read about half a chapter and my ADD Mind starts wondering off on all my ideas, and new things I want to do with my business. But bought three, and past two out, one to my mother, and another to ...crap, no I cant remember..

    Either way I have it, and have been skimming through it, its an awesome book.

    Thank you for turning your theft into a sale. The pirate PDF's are both a blessing and a curse.

    Love the way MJ wrote it.. Brutal honest. I guess cuz the man doesn't care if he sells or not, so he writes from his heart.. and that's what makes this book so great. No holding back, no lying,no polishing.. Wanna hear the truth.. here it comes!!
