What a freaking cool website. It'll open your eyes to so many opportunities.

I signed up. They seem to be geared towards tech startups. It seems that their marketing is also geared towards attracting tech startup founders.

Most of those software-based simple businesses only make sense to start if you’re the developer, and usually if you’re working a job and want to launch some side project. They’re not investment worthy. Like I would never pay a developer $20K-$40K to build the Reflect app for example. It’s just not worth it, because the risks of it not working out are too high. The path to profit looks long and arduous, full of risk. I’d much rather take that money, for example, and put it into real estate, a stock portfolio, etc.

If you have people on your team that you're paying to work a certain number of hours for you every week or month - and their time isn't always fully accounted for - you might like to think about creating some "Infinity Projects" for them to dip in and out of as their schedules permit: What's your Infinity Project?

Could be a good way of getting things done without needing to shell out four/five figures of development cost specifically for that purpose.

I'm gonna guess Zuck will also have a fence or a wall around his bunker and apocalypse compound.

Funny how that works.

I don't want to speak out of turn, but last night I was having a premonition then saw this in the middle of the night.

My thoughts were telling me to be prepared and to be brave at the evil that will actualize itself in America. Something big will happen that will be infuriating, devastating and sad.

I agree, at some point there will be some sort of civil war. Maybe the elites will starve the common folk and the WEF agenda will come into play full force. Who knows.

There's a movie on Netflix called Leave the World Behind which pretty much describes this agenda. Why fight a war against a country when you can plot to have a society implode against each other, all while Zuck watches from his bunker.

Leave the World Behind
Directed by Obama which is not suspicious at all

Personally I have a different view of what is coming but it’s a little too political to post here

I personally think we are going to be fine and are about to enter the greatest time in history

The enemy is exposing themselves and destroying themselves out of desperation

Never in any time in history have people been more awake to the evil in this world

Either way people just need to use @Kak locus of control concept

Poisoning water? Get a filter. Poisoning vax? Don’t take it. Schools woke? Homeschool. Food poisoned? Eat organic. Inflation bad? Go Fastlane.

No politician can improve or ruin your life anywhere near as much as you can.

It was directed by Sam Esmail, who is known for weird directing styles, notably, Mr. Robot. Do you mean an executive producer?

Sorry yeah wrong word, I just saw an article saying he had a lot of influence and notes about the direction of that movie which is strange

Mr. Robot is probably one of the best things I've ever watched. Insanely deep.

The movie was horrible. Interesting premise (and not very subtle) but horribly executed. It was also an hour too long, and the forced social commentary ended up going nowhere and felt awkward and disingenuous. It was just more modern trash.

Hey all,

I bought an INSIDERS membership from MJ with the goal of gifting it to one of the attendees of my workshops here:

https://www.thefastlaneforum.com/community/threads/grow-a-digital-agency-free-workshops-–-options-for-beginners-advanced.109554/#post-1100596

I wasn’t able to track who attended, and nobody is raising their hand up.

So could you guys help me choose someone from the community who you think deserves 1-year INSIDERS membership and doesn’t have it already?

Feel free to recommend people, I intend to award the membership by Christmas.

Cheers!

I didn't say I liked it, Netflix is always promoting some WEF agenda.

The Tesla's crashing is an example; Musk is not pushing the NWO, so now he's a target of ridicule in some casual scene.

Ok, I’m happy to pay another one, let’s give it to both, I think they both deserve it and I’m surprised they don’t have it!

I’ll send you the money for the second one now.

How do you think I feel? Capitalist, vegan, own 5 guns, personal responsibility, hate government, not religious... I can add a few other things but I'll stop there.
I saw the Assault rifle in the background on one of your YT vids

Wow!!!!!!

Is that fully semi automatic with a 30 magazine clip?

I wish I was man enough to own firearms... I'm not strong enough to rack the thingy back. Alas, we just call the police. They'll take care of us.

Just buy a nerf gun, add more springs and tape nails to the end of the darts. I’ve seen people do it and it’s effective.:rofl:

Guys, we don't need guns to protect ourselves. We just need to back the blue. Such selfless individuals laying down their lives for you, me, the only paycheck that exceeds their intellectual capability, and eleven daily donuts.

He's so selfless that he probably leaves a half a donut for the wife he has a 40% chance of beating.

I don't buy it.

If the elites starve the plebs, how will the elites be able to use the plebs?

It benefits them to keep the plebs around.

Who else is gonna do all the work?
