Hope the title caught some attention 
.
My name is Matthew, 24 Y/O. Finished the book around 4 months ago and have since told around 7-10 people to purchase the book.
I used to currently work (not a typo..read on) as a personal trainer here in NYC and obviously the book opened my eyes to not allow the tying of time to income. I have had around 50 "Great" ideas that i thought people would invest in but who the "F" was i to seek an investment.
So after shuffling through ideas that i thought would work i settled on a SaaS based product within the Gym/Studio Market that i find has a very common pain point yet is not being done right.
First step? Get an Investor... NOPE....
So what am i to do?
I have this great idea, good market knowledge. Yet it is a SaaS product and i have no experience in computers or software building. As a matter of fact, before doing any research if you asked me what HTML or IOS Swift was i would have responded "Who is he?"
That being said
I decided to cut back on my PT clients by right around 93% and focus my time into learning from scratch without school... Coding on the Swift language for IOS based systems.
It is going well so far, i am 3 months in and i have learned alot, and things are starting to make sense. I have a piece of the software already built and love messing around with it because i know 3 months ago i had no clue how the heck to build anything in software and now i have a fully functioning piece of my SaaS business. Craziness!
Speaking of Craziness
I just may have one of the craziest background stories ever, and as i plan on being an active member and posting updates regularly so people can follow along with the journey, i hope you will give advice and or ask advice if anything i say sparks a thought.. and as we all become friends i will start sharing some of my crazy background story which i promise is a HUMDINGER! (first time using that word, i swear)
Thank you and i look forward to networking with all of you.
