    Van Trend (RV vagabonding, travel)

    OFF-TOPIC 
    I loved the promaster until I ran into problems lol. Maybe it was just my experience but I have had some major issues with it. When COVID shutdown CA of too long my daughter and I decided to move back east to live near family. So we packed the few things we had into the van and drove cross...

    Van Trend (RV vagabonding, travel)

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Yes! Myself and my daughter built this last summer! Unfortunately we have not had much time to travel. We spent every night last summer building it on the side of the road by the beach in Long Beach. Best summer of my life spending it with my kid. mom actually looking to sell the van...

    Which path would you choose?

    Now I am learning things I did not know. I had never even heard of means-reversion trading. Now I have some homework to do! My day trading strategy is trading gap ups in after hours or premarket. Stock XYZ gaps up and breaks out of previous resistance then it is added to my watchlist for the...

    Karakoram, I really appreciate this length and informative response. Thank you so much for taking the time to share this with me. I would love to pick your brain on a few things if you ever have time! Speaking directly to the trading option: Trading has not been an "option" per se for me in...

    Ratrace - real world be-first-to-get-money game

    it’s seems you could monetize easily like you mentioned with sign up and subscription fees to start. You could then at least see if you could build any traction. I love this idea. That said, what happens after someone gets killed for the money? I had a similar idea I had worked on years ago...

    Which path would you choose?

    I think that you are right on this point as well. My original plan was solving an issue, or at least providing a service for something needed, however increasing scale is where things fall apart in my view. Or at least could not be easily scaled. Back to the drawing board! I appreciate you...

    Which path would you choose?

    You are exactly right and this is what is giving me any second thought on pursuing this venture. As I mentioned earlier this industry is run on networking and the relationships that you build. So that is one factor that those outsourced competitors do not have. I have very good relationships...

    Which path would you choose?

    Thanks for the input Classmate. I agree with you and this is one of my biggest concerns with starting a B&M business at this time. Even aside from tensions with China and Russia the entertainment industry has pretty much been subbed out to overseas countries with much lower production costs...

    Growing A Youtube Channel From Scratch

    EXECUTION 
    Great work so far! I am watching a couple of different vids and I see the progress in your audio which is vital, especially since you're not showing your face. If you need help with audio let me know, this is what I do for a living. One suggestion, you are getting alot of "plosives" which is...

    @WJK Thank you!
  12. jjohns500

    Which path would you choose?

    @WJK Thanks for the reply! This is kinda my thinking as well. I do not want to get diverted into something that will potentially cost me cash flow, however my only issue is time in my career and a desire to exit sooner than later. I think that that is still possible with what you suggest. Real...

    Which path would you choose?

    Hey all, I am looking for some feedback on my current situation. I have 4 areas of income that I have been pursuing for the past 4-5 years outside of my 9/5. These may not all be fastlane at this point, however I am looking for something to relieve me of overtime hours I currently work so...

    My SO dreams of an unscripted life, but is struggling to success. I hope you can read the situation and talk some sense into him.

    PEOPLE 
    He may be very close. I don't think that push is going to come from you, at least not in a way that you want to. I think all of us have been in some similar position in our life at some point but what kept us there or got us out is all that matters. I will tell you from personal experience, I...

    Anyone here own an RV and live and/or travel in it frequently?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    I can't personally speak to RV, however I grew up with my family owning and traveling in them. They all loved them. I personally have taken more to the vanlife route. Built this one myself and it's perfect for my and my daughter to travel. Much less maintenance and it's actually my daily driver...
