    Passive Income Dream Come True, Only Took 5 Years of Hard Work

    GOLD! EXECUTION 
    I'm totally down. I've had a hard time connecting with people in recent years as they don't have the same ambitions, drive and they're all quite happy in their slow lane lives. Would be down with connecting with someone like minded. Even if you're early in your journey would love to see the...

    Passive Income Dream Come True, Only Took 5 Years of Hard Work

    GOLD! EXECUTION 
    Totally. All of you examples though require a lot of work before being truly passive. An investment portfolio needs funded before seeing any significant income, a royalty check has to come from some kind of creation and pensions require years of work. The $6k I made passively is just the start...

    Thanks for this, dealing with employees is new to me so this is super helpful.

    Passive Income Dream Come True, Only Took 5 Years of Hard Work

    GOLD! EXECUTION 
    Yes, that's exactly what I've done here. Sorry, numbers aren't my strongest suit but my salary is factored into it the same as my employees. I would be able to find someone to perform my role for the $90-$110k mark but I don't think I'm at a point where I would like to do that just yet. I am...

    Passive Income Dream Come True, Only Took 5 Years of Hard Work

    GOLD! EXECUTION 
    Big thanks MJ. I've been a fan since I read The Millionaire Fastlane. My daughter had just been born and I was looking for ways to break the ceiling of my job. I bought a bunch of books on trading, lost a chunk of money trying that, when I came across your book. I've bought copies of...

    I might have to get you to sell this for me, haha. I'm not the best salesman, so for me to try to sell something that I myself wouldn't buy I would have a really hard time.

    Passive Income Dream Come True, Only Took 5 Years of Hard Work

    GOLD! EXECUTION 
    It's funny I actually have stopped doing used car inspections altogether. There's too much time wasted organizing between buyer and seller. I have a strict drop off policy and I heavily discourage waiting around the shop. I'll provide an Uber home if it gets people out of my hair and allows me...

    Of course. You could google it but with automotive it's difficult sometimes as a lube and tire shop will have vastly different numbers than a general repair shop like mine. Gross profit sits around 70% and net profit around 20% for myself. The $90k a year salary I pay myself is part of this.

    GOLD! EXECUTION 
    I've read it actually, twice. Once on kindle and I bought a hard cover recently so I can scratch notes in it. I've really taken his chapter on role setting to heart. Everyone at my place has their job and we all work together. Front office deals with customers, estimates and parts ordering. I...

    Passive Income Dream Come True, Only Took 5 Years of Hard Work

    GOLD! EXECUTION 
    I was an hour from home. I had a job go completely sideways. It was winter time. I remember just struggling with this job, in the cold and the dark. What should've taken an hour or two turned into the whole day. I drove the hour home and my wife is really upset with how late I was coming home...

    Passive Income Dream Come True, Only Took 5 Years of Hard Work

    GOLD! EXECUTION 
    Yes! This is the goal for sure. For the time being I really enjoy being on the tools. I think I would like to stay fairly active in the business until I can acquire a property. I feel owning the building the business operates is my next big goal. Something bigger, probably 4x what I have now. I...

    Passive Income Dream Come True, Only Took 5 Years of Hard Work

    GOLD! EXECUTION 
    This weekend was a turning point for myself and my business. I've been a member of this forum 7 years, completely in awe of some of the guys on here being able to be absent owners and working only a couple hours a week. At first I tried all the gimmicks. Selling shirts on Facebook, copywriting...
