    STOP Paying Rent: Live For Free

    GOLD! REAL ESTATE 
    Yes, as you mentioned its all about finding a property that cash flows correctly. Regardless of the market you will always find situations where people have to let the property go because of different circumstances. For example the property i just picked up was owned by couple going through a...

    Was referred to this forum by a friend, looks amazing! Hi :)

    INTRO 
    Firstly, you have a good friend to point you to this community, most people have to find there way here on there own. You will see alot of people point out here that execution trumps ideas. I heard it from somewhere awhile back that for every successful business dozens of people had the same...

    To sell or not to sell the dream car ??

    HOT! 
    Just throwing an idea out there. Sell the car and use it as motivation to get a fastlane business going. Take a picture and put it above your desk to remind yourself that you will one day get the same car or better one back. From a fellow oilfield worker just south of you in North Dakota.

    Thanks I appreciate it! It has potential, there is an identical duplex right next to it that the owner fixed up to look very nice so I will be taking alot of notes from his house.

    California Governor signs rent-control law... yea or nay?

    REAL ESTATE 
    My first instinct is that this is a political ploy to make it look like they are trying to fix the problem of the housing crisis in CA to voters. The free market is very clever and in the end landlords will always find a way around this. I feel like it would be pretty easy for landlords to make...

    STOP Paying Rent: Live For Free

    GOLD! REAL ESTATE 
    Would like to give a big shoutout to @G_Alexander for giving me the steps/inspiration to get my first investment property under my belt. I got a very good deal on a duplex in a good part of town for only 100,500 dollars that has two units that will rent for 850 each(1700 total). My mortgage is...

    Grant Cardone is off his rocker...

    OFF-TOPIC 
    I listened to the video driving today and agree that Grant Cardone did not come off well in my opinion. It seemed throughout most of the interview that Jordan was trying to analyze different business topics to gain some insight from Grant but he really had nothing insightful to add. The whole...

    From self-destruction to recovery

    INTRO 
    I heard Joe Rogan say something that resonated with me once that might be applicable in this situation. “I love a success story, but even more than a success story; I like a dude who F*cks his life up and gets his life together again story.” – Joe Rogan I've been there man, stick with it and...

    Starting my Fastlane Journey

    INTRO 
    Very cool, I got a degree in engineering myself(petroleum) and it has paid off pretty well for me so far. I think my two paid internships were pretty key to getting a solid offer out of college so sounds like you making good decisions. My general approach to looking for business opportunities...

    INTRO 
    Welcome! I did a few internships in college also while working to open my own businesses. What are you getting your degree in?

    I feel lost

    MINDSET 
    I guess what it comes down to for me is there is no reason you can't do both(college and open a business). Some people to subscribe to the theory of "Don't have a backup plan" when pursuing entrepreneurship or in this case don't go to college without a solid business. Sometimes these people are...

    I feel lost

    MINDSET 
    I can relate to alot of what you said about feeling like you are wasting time in school. I wanted to drop out halfway through college to pursue starting my own businesses but am glad I didn't. Why? bottom line is it takes capital to startup most businesses, sure its possible to do it scaling...

    Does everyone struggle to learn code?

    HOT! MINDSET 
    I'm currently doing Codeacademy also and its starting to remind me of my math journey. In my K-12 education I always excelled at math and it came very easily to me so I choose engineering in college. Then came along Calculus 1-3 and Differential Equations. It was a real eye opener to what type...

    I'm just another Honda Civic, transforming into something faster.

    INTRO 
    I have had the pleasure of working with many Norwegians and Scandinavians in my line of work and have been impressed with them all. Its always interesting to hear other material people encountered before finding the DJ's books. I myself did the 67 steps and found great value in them but never...
