    I've Read The Millionaire Fastlane!

    GOLD! HOT! 
    I've read it a second time after reading Unscripted. Doesn't get old.

    I've Read UNSCRIPTED!

    GOLD! HOT! 
    Read it. Very nice update/sequel to TMF. I can tell you put a lot of thought and effort into the book, with an updated twist that felt very refreshing. I appreciated that you took this book even beyond the original in explaining to protect your capital by growing it when earned (bonds, etc)...

    8 Eyewear: From Idea, to Launch, to Growth (And Quitting the Job)

    IDEA 
    Glad to see things are booming Vick. Hopefully you'll be at a point eventually where you can see what hours you're able to free up. Do you find that social media takes up a lot of time? Would you consider/trust hiring someone to manage your social media?

    Homejoy Is Shutting Down At The End Of The Month

    HOT! 
    There must have been a good enough reason for them to get 40m backed into their business in the first place. I just think that they decided to take a giant uneducated risk without talking to their investors about it, and no backup plan to circumvent a largely possible negative outcome. I mean...

    Honesty Kills?

    PEOPLE 
    Instead of being 'real' with people that have no intention or desire to get 'real' or change, just smile, nod your head, and carry on. Not sure if you're living with family now or not, but if so, your first step would be to move out, and stop hanging out with people that are a negative...

    Homejoy Is Shutting Down At The End Of The Month

    HOT! 
    Raising 40m in donated/VC money, to create a business that knowingly loses them money, in a flawed attempt to drive other businesses out of the market? That's laughable. Any other competitor would know exactly Homejoy was trying to do, and know that their donations will eventually plateau, and...

    DOMINATE Speech via SIMPLE eye contact.

    Start at 49 Seconds This is an effective tool everyone should take advantage of. It will help immensely in public speaking scenarios, whether to a group, or individuals (of any stature).

    How much funding do Startups need?

    Enough to make your first sale. Complexity of product + Process Also, capital used properly at certain stages of growth can certainly accelerate business. It isn't like they would spend all 200m right away (if they are smart). Their investors must have a lot of faith in said (potential)...

    What if you don't love your idea?

    IDEA 
    That's right, and I love what I make for others. My own creation/prototype is a unique device. It fills large NEED for others, and I love developing it (not to mention I would totally use it myself). The best part about this creation, is that I would have never seen myself developing a...

    What if you don't love your idea?

    IDEA 
    If you don't love what you're making, neither will anyone else. If you aren't in love with your idea, there is no way you will be dedicated enough to surpass your competitors in said market. Who are these allusive 'business mentors'? Do they have any credibility? Is it Mark Cuban? Perhaps...

    How Do I Find My Purpose?

    NOTABLE! MINDSET 
    This advice definitely won't help anyone reach the fastlane though. There is a large difference between 'doing what you love', and 'loving what you do'. e.g. Instead of making music hoping to be a rock star (do what you love), why not use your knowledge as a musician to fill a need, and invent...

    Why Facebook is a Joke (And various social media/smartphone insanity)

    NOTABLE! HOT! MARKETING 
    I spend 85% of my day (almost everyday of my slowlane job) as a Remote Technician at my computer, staring at a screen (which does suck), but it also taught me much about being focused (not straying to random time-wasting websites while waiting for customers to connect to me), which I'm very...

    There's this saying about "luck"

    RANT 
    (The now Billionaire) John Paul DeJoria used to live out of his car surviving on $1 meals everyday from a food truck just to afford the capital to get his business going, and this was decades ago when there was no internet. Determination will bring you crazy places as you learn along the way...
