    The giraffe riddle answer and how to fool the world into believing anything

    FUNNY 
    My take is I log into TMF forums today and the first 2 threads I read are a riddle followed by an in depth syntactical analysis of the riddle and a thread that simply asks 'bad decision or decision gone bad?', both posted by mods. Is it international **** with my head day or something? :rofl...

    Take new job, or stick with hustling in AM until I can get fastlane going?

    My entire business was built on a laptop on my daily 3 hour commute on a train. Got home, ate, more work, repeat. I try to get 6 hours sleep (sometimes I don't), but any less than 6 hours sleep every week night is brutal.

    Who would I need to create analytic software?

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Well... It seems like the idea is rather conceptual at this point. Essentially the supplement industry is getting bigger, and so is the data analysis industry, so lets become a data analysis company or create a data analysis product that caters specifically to the supplement business space...

    Who would I need to create analytic software?

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    This is one of my areas of expertise. But your question is so vague. Without actually knowing what your trying to achieve it's hard to give you any advice here. If you don't have any experience working with data it's also going to be an uphill battle. So you might have to look for a technical...

    My Business and My Bank Account are Growing

    Developed it myself. Talked about it a little bit a few posts up.

    My Business and My Bank Account are Growing

    Correct. Sure, although it's nothing special. I have PPC google and bing search ads targeting certain keywords. That's it. I find google ads to be expensive ($2-$3 a click for my keywords), but they're quite profitable. I have considered taking a week or two off my day job to cold call leads...

    My Business and My Bank Account are Growing

    Essentially what I'm saying is I am utilizing technology/methods that my competitors haven't entirely caught up to yet. As an example, some of them are still hosting their own servers and passing on the expense of doing so to their clients, many of them are still distributing CD's with the...

    My Business and My Bank Account are Growing

    This particular product I came across during my day job. I was getting quotes from existing providers for a service my organisation needed and I wasn't happy with what they were offering and their pricing. The fact that I had to actually call them to get pricing was enough to annoy me. More...

    My Business and My Bank Account are Growing

    Not as uneasy as my competitors feel :rofl: I think in this context what you have to remember though is ;) I definitely feel there's room to charge a little more for the service, but a big part of it is that my competitors are definitely overcharging and are seemingly stuck in the 90's way of...

    My Business and My Bank Account are Growing

    This is an excellent post, and my experience is that you are spot on. My service is considerably cheaper than many of my competitors, but one of the most common questions I get from potential clients is 'Why is it so cheap?', it actually makes many of them suspicious, where there is no need for...

    My Business and My Bank Account are Growing

    And it feels great! I launched my web service business 4 months ago. I'd weighed up a number of business ideas carefully against the CENTS criteria before settling on this. The end result is an extremely passive business, everything's automated. Now that the web service is built it takes about...

    Jaden Smith thoughts on school controversy

    I think the 15 year old son of a multi-million dollar celebrity might not be presenting the most unbiased, well thought out perspective of schooling or life in general.

    The best way to retain new information

    Dan Kennedy is wrong. The best way to learn something new is through ACTION. Read (or listen to) it once and then put what you've learned into action. There are no shortcuts when it comes to learning. It requires effort.

    Progress Thread: dollarsigns journey to earn more dollar signs

    EXECUTION 
    Why do you have $7500 in savings/investments when you have 10k CC debt to pay off? Unless the debt is interest free or your investments are returning more than the interest your paying on the debt. Pay off $7500 of the debt now.

    Thoughts on Marriage/Kids and the Fastlane dream

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Or is that just like saying a successful entrepreneur got very lucky because he's now worth millions? Maybe he just treated dating methodically, like business, and ensured that who he was seeing was going to fit in his life, and if they didn't, moved on and found someone who would. Due...

    Hello from Portugal

    Hi and welcome My father is Portuguese, from the Aveiro area. I was over there late last year. I visited Lisbon, Porto and Aveiro and it was all during the austerity protests/strikes, which made it difficult as a tourist. Couldn't get into the Castle of São Jorge, staff on strike, couldn't...

    Everyone is asking me for money...

    Yep. Get rid of these 'friends'. You can't choose your family but you can choose your friends. Choose wisely. Yes, but not before they revel in your failure... Most people love to see you fail, they hate to see you succeed.
