    Kevin O’ Leary says investing $100 a week will make you a millionaire by retirement

    HOT! 
    Pure facts, they want to keep the populous average or "in the rat race". The key is to learn what the %1 do, not what they say they do or tell us to do.

    Damn it is a endless journey of consistent learning, and yea I need to earn a certain amount of $ per month just to stay afloat. I can't just take a year off and learn (especially with my daughter). If I went to school, I'd work on the side. It's definitely a grind and not easy, I'm gonna...

    On the surface it can seem like another slow-lane pathway, but I feel like in the tech world, I have a higher chance of creating something serious / rewarding VS being stuck in the trucking industry with no room for growth. I have the mindset of tricking the system, using the slowlane pathway...

    I appreciate your response, and when you say a few bucks, how much roughly are we talking (per year)? Also, how'd you learn it on your own / by yourself and how long did it take to get a job / develop your career? I will also take coding very seriously and you're right, college doesn't make...

    Interesting, I've never heard of the Odin Project, I'll check it out. Thanks for the response and advice! College is indeed scripted thinking and I agree, it could get pushed back (the idea of creating a tech company), if I'm completely trapped within the rat race. I'm going to start learning...

    I appreciate your response and all the sources you gave me, I'm gonna look into them more and try to develop a stratagem. I've heard of people who have bach degrees in CS who can't code and Ik most companies are looking for real coding skills. The problem isn't learning the information or...

    Mm I agree with you, it does seem like more scripted reprogramming, but my ultimate plan is to get a degree > earn more money faster (accelerate my earning potential quicker in the tech field) > FATFIRE early. I feel like tech has a higher chance of leading me to FATFIRING vs driving trucks...

    I've Read UNSCRIPTED!

    GOLD! HOT! 
    I definitely recommend reading this book for anybody who wants to escape the rat race / mediocre mentality. I listened to the audio book and now I'm re-reading the physical copy of the book! MJ DeMarco speaks pure facts in both books (this and the millionaire fastlane).

    I've Read The Millionaire Fastlane!

    GOLD! HOT! 
    I've read the book twice and it's a game changer, mentally it rewires the way you think about business / entrepreneurship + it debunks all the BS people spew about making a business / "your passion" and the rat race. I loved it when MJ exposed scam artists, who charge $50,000 for a seminar. "A...

    Never made a intro post, but here it is.. I'm a 22 yo who drives trucks but now I'm going back to school for CS. I'll be active on forms daily and my ultimate goal is to gain high skills in tech and accelerate my path to FATFIRING (even though I live in a low col city). I recently had a...
