Why prostitute your Monday through Friday for the paycheck of a weekend? Grab the book that is creating an entrepreneurial revolution and make everyday your weekend!
Then you have just broken the law. Is illegal activity and SEC violations apart of your business plan too?
And as for your investors that you found "from this thread" I would have to recommend that they rethink their decision. And after they're done with that, read this:
...
LOL.
You can create pyramids or climb them.
You can lead or you can follow.
You can innovate or subordinate.
You can be the wolf or the sheep.
You decide.
So "you are able" but refuse to do so. Instead, you are preaching to the choir about 14G.
The fact you claim you're able, but refuse to do the work tells me you want the red carpet laid out for you.
You don't want to work hard.
You don't want to do the dirty work.
You don't want to put in...
Can you disclose which major brands you supply?
Also, do you deal in textiles? (Like cloth, rags, etc.)
And can I change the title to "I've made millions importing/exporting, ask me anything" -- LOL.
Have you tried your hand at writing? You write well.
Sorry to hear about your hardships and hopefully the folks here can help steer you into a new direction.
Welcome.
You're welcome.
I hope you're ready for an onslaught of questions: Ill be sharing your AMA on all my social links as well as putting out an email!
Get readyyyyyyyyy!
To the original poster, "general solicitation" is illegal and cannot be allowed here.
I need you to modify your post(s) to REMOVE all instances which ask for investors. If you cannot do this, I will need to close (or delete) this thread.
If you are confused on why, click here:
Let me...
Well I must say that you've shown that you can take a punch or two and still stand. That is commendable. Usually by now I get the "delete my account" email which happens after the person doesn't like what he reads.
Curious... Why hasn't your local celebrity status produced any investors? Here your issue will be credibility. At home (the geography in which you are a celebrity) you should easily be able to overcome a credibility gap. Have you approached individuals familiar with your track record? Friends?...
Sorry bro, but his *radical idea* is not the cause for scorn and hate. You know what is? Attitude. Arrogance. Lack of due diligence. Lack of respect for the forum. And lack of respect for the forum owner, who BTW, didn't create this forum to be a pitch fest for drive-by posters.
And...
Do you even know what the Fastlane is?
Let me guess: You were once the star quarterback in high school who is now finding out that the real world doesn't give a shit.
Ditto.
You speak absolute truth.
My Venom Viper attracted guys like flies. My Murci wasn't as bad but overall these cars attract MEN, not women unless your idea of a woman is a 16 year old girl who associates the car with Justin Bieber and/or consumptious rappers.
Perhaps it's time you stop talking/posting and start doing/acting. Success is very convincing and it will shut em up every time. Until then, you're just another shit-talking dreamer to them.
So in other words, the guy double-down'd on stupid.
Choices have consequences and it's the consequences we have to live with.
Pieces of paper that say "MBA" doesn't "open doors" ... PEOPLE open doors.
My first instinct would be to do just a simple redirect of the generic domain to the branded domain. I wouldn't even post content at the generic website unless you can absolutely determine that it adds link juice, and won't penalize the branded domain. My preference would be to focus on the...
Of course not, there won't be a ban hammer which is why you're being informed.
Well then I'm not sure why you're here ... this is a discussion forum, not your personal venue for promoting your blog (which seems to focus more on employment rather than entrepreneurship).
Anyhow, I hope you...
Do you have any plans to contribute to any other threads on this forum not started by you? I mean, seriously contributing without adding links to your blog?
I almost didn't release TMF because I wasn't happy with the later chapters. I had much much more to say and couldn't because it was already too long. However, because I publicly declared I was writing this, and people were expecting it (and I talked about it for years), I just said "fuck it" and...
LOL, you don't lack resources, you lack discipline and drive.
I can't believe someone in this day and age is complaining about not having the resources to build an app or write a book.
Every single thing you want to know is a few keystrokes away and it's FREAKING FREE. In fact, learning...
I'm seeing it be more common for entrepreneurs to dictate terms in the acquisition. A few examples are when Tony Hseih sold Zappos and the founder of Chipolte sold it to McDonalds ... they stipulated that certain brand elements could NOT be changed.
You're correct: It's a grand scheme of illegal bait-and-switch that goes unenforced and unregulated.
For example, I was helping a friend find an apartment and we saw one advertised for $950 right down the street; we drove down there 10 minutes after it was posted and they said it was no longer...
Case in point...
Go to Craigslist and search in the real estate category for "houses for sale."
What was once a valuable resource for finding a house has now become a worthless cesspool of garbage, a stinking rancid pile of excrement for real estate agents who spam and litter this category...
Hello! My name is Sarah and I’m a 24 yr old fastlane student :) As my username suggests, I’m quite the dreamer. (Hopefully soon I can change my name to achiever! Haha) I was recently given MJ Demarco’s book as a gift, and although I’m only on chapter 10 (I started two days ago) I have learned so much! I suspect this book will be a valuable tool in my success to reach my financial goals before the age of 30. Some very important things I’ve learned so far that I would like to share with you:
An embarrassing epiphany I had after reading the book thus far is that I’m definitely a mix between a sidewalker/slowlane driver, (And I want to change this asap!) I’m a mix because like the sidewalker, I have absolutely zero savings, poor credit, I live pay check to pay check, and have no stable plan for my financial future, (yet.) However unlike the sidewalker, I have pretty much zero interest in buying extravagant things I can’t afford to give the “wealth appearance.” I tend to unnecessarily indulge in experiences rather than materialistic items. For example I’d much rather spend money on expensive concert tickets or an awesome steak dinner at a fancy restaurant than buy the hot new stilettos in the store window that everyone is wearing. And I think I drive in the slowlane in the sense that I got good grades, I am college educated, I have a “decent” job working mon-fri which is my only source of income. At the current moment I feel I have indeed “sold my soul for the weekend” The 5 for 2 return definitely sucks and needs to be changed.
The difference between me and the average sidewalker or slowlane driver however is that I acknowledge the situation I’m in, I’m definitely not content with it, refuse to do this long-term, so I am going to try my hardest to change it. I don’t want to retire rich at 60+ (assuming I even get there!) But like Demarco explained in his book, I don’t just “deserve” to achieve financial wealth without obedience to process or accountability. The thing is… I am more than willing and happily ready to hold myself accountable, to start my process and journey down the yellow brick road. I’m also very thrilled to have found this book and this forum to help me along the way. Thanks in advance to any of you successful ladies and gents who take any time out to help me get there. Your time and advice is definitely much appreciated! So here’s to making millions and sipping fruity cocktails beachside! :)
