    WTF does Tai Lopez do?

    Props to the guy for making money off of ________. People make money in a lot more horrible ways. Not sure what all of the hate here is for. If he's not for you, then ignore. One guy I love (who's absolutely INSANE) is Rich Piana. Big presence, insane (yeah I said it again), and definitely...

    What would you do in this situation as a 8-fig protege

    Amazon is a great channel to start, but it's just one of many distribution channels out there for your product. If you can do big sponsorship deals, I would probably go for a kickstarter first to launch the product to a larger audience.

    I think what people are missing is that this individual is ask very specific questions while he does not have a business in the industry. Even if I were to deep dive into them, it wouldn't help move the needle one way or another because they're totally irrelevant before you launch. And...

    1.) Silly question 2.) A lot of companies have adapted our model of open-source. It's awesome. 3.) Usually creative = confusing. Find a deal that benefits both parties. 4.) 1000000%

    What would you tell your 16 year old self?

    EXECUTION 
    I'm writing a blog post about this now, but the key to this game is longevity. Simply outlasting everyone else and persevering through upswings, downswings, trends and whatever else.

    Current Biz Owner: Buying Another Biz vs Real Estate

    EXECUTION 
    I think the future will be a bit different. The "mega-city" concept won't happen because software is eating the auto industry. Currently the advantage to living in the city is being in close proximity to the things you interact with most. That could be your job, friends, restaurants...

    Everyone listen right now... This is one of those conferences that can change your life simply based on the quality of people there and the number of people in attendance. Most conferences are overwhelming - you meet someone and then forget their name before getting introduced to the next...

    AMA: New Supplement Biz, Profitable in Month 1

    AMA 
    I get this question asked pretty regularly. You can either source everything yourself (more work but less cost) or have the manufacturer do all of this (less work but more cost). There's advantages to each option, but depending on the size of your production run it's probably easier to let the...

    Definitely pulled everything I had to get the business started. That wasn't even enough, so I hustled some quick static site to wordpress conversion deals to get the cash that I needed. We're location independent-ish. Our main office is in Austin, Texas now where most of the team works out of...
