    I have half a million liquid. Is there any standard business I can start that gets me 10% to 20% returns?

    INVESTING 
    I initially had the money prepared for housing purchase. But now my situation changed b/c I was laid off. I was working as corporate software engineer, so really no business experience. But say, I'm willing to invest half a million in capital. And willing to spend the time and efforts into...

    Don't Ask, Give

    NOTABLE! HOT! MINDSET 
    All really good points. I totally agree with OP on the point of "Don't ask". To start with, you should be offering, with emphasize on what you can do for them. To add in what's already been discussed, maybe in addition to "offer", you can also start to "negotiate" or "deal" or "qualify". I...

    You have to laser focus on what you can do, how much you can do, and the exact plan for your actions. Because that's the only thing you control.

    This idea relates to a lot of what M.J talks about. M.J talks about you should focus on the process and not on "success events". Ultimately "success events" are not things you can totally control. Whether a product is a success, whether your company is acquired, it's just feedback you get back...

    MINDSET 
    The idea of "taking responsibility for your life" and "don't be a victim" does get discussed. But I think there's not enough emphasize on how important it is. I think it's very easy to put mental focus on what the "market" is like, what the "industry" is like. For example, I was working on sth...

    Have you had your "FTE"? (Or Was it an FTM?!)

    GOLD! MINDSET FTE CHAT 
    It's almost comical, they think b/c they're the boss, they can do absolutely nothing, claim credit for everything, then express no gratitude, instead express "disappointment", then demand more. in so many ways, employment is too close to slavery for comfort.

    Have you had your "FTE"? (Or Was it an FTM?!)

    GOLD! MINDSET FTE CHAT 
    omg, when you said you came up with the product, I thought you quit and developed the product for yourself. It's absolutely true, every level of boss will want to take credit, like a F*cking flock of different kinds and different size of vultures. Then don't want to give anything to the guy on...

    Undercover Billionaire season 2: Lessons and takeaways

    CHAT 
    At least he preaches what he does, his book 10X is simply about taking more action. There is a lot to be said for that. All too often people just get stuck on something and in the end they don't do anything.

    Clients hate calling/searching, leverage that by standing before them

    MARKETING 
    Great point, what are those other bozos doing giving out assignments to the potential client? Just make your offer, they accept or reject. Better yet, repeatedly make offer, they just have to accept once.

    What dream car do you have in mind as future reward?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    I can already afford most of what's considered luxury cars from my past corporate job earnings, but I never felt any excitement about making the purchase b/c the money would have to come from wages, which is in conflict with my goals of generating independent earnings. What I am excited about...
