    Hi there, fellow woman fastlaner from Spain here. I am currently working on my second business. Sold my first few months ago. I didnt make enough to retire but it was enough to fund my current business. I am currently building a childrens fashion brand.

    How do you become a happy person?

    HOT! MINDSET 
    I always say there are two types of people: Those who look for solutions to the problem and those who look for problems to the solution. From what I am reading my gut is telling me that what it is preventing yourself from being happy is your mindset. One thing calls my attention: You mention...

    €40,000 Sitting In Bank...Don't Know What To Do!

    HOT! 
    First of all, put your savings on a savings account with interest (I know several, pm me if interested, happy to share with you the ones I have, I don't get any commission, I promise :)). Where in Spain do you live? With that rent you pay I assume in a smaller city, right? I would not discard...

    What Are The Reasons People Buy Something?

    Be careful with that, if I were looking for coach services and I see one that is cheaper than the rest I would wonder why. I would look for different ways to differentiate yourself than cost. How do people choose their coaches? I do not know but my gut tells me liking the style of the person is...

    pay debts or use the money to invest?

    HOT! 
    Wow, what a story, I have some Venezuelan friends who went through a similar experience, glad to hear you managed to get out and start over somewhere else. But as you say, if you did it once you can do it again! If Option 1 is not an option I would repay most of the debts and probably leave a...

    Quit now, get a job, and why bother. Everything is luck.

    I believe you are also mystifying lawyers and doctors, you are making the same idealification that you did with the online wisdom and get rich easy. I have been a lawyer myself and worked in top law firms and I know that world very well. Yes, there are lawyers who make those amounts you mention...

    My 600lb Life: Addiction, Enabling, More (RANT)

    NOTABLE! 
    I completely agree. When I was working as a lawyer in Spain I had very long working days +12hours plus 2 hours commute and many weekends and eating healthy was easy as there were many healthy options. Also, cooking healthy food does not take that long, you can prepare excellent meals in less...

    My 600lb Life: Addiction, Enabling, More (RANT)

    NOTABLE! 
    Maybe it is made up but pretty sure it is not far from the truth. I was reading an article the other day that obesity (and diseases caused directly by it) is responsible for 7% of public health costs in Spain (about €5Bn). Considering health costs are way lower in Spain and that only 17% of...

    NOTABLE! 
    It is always easier to blame external factors than take responsibility for your choices. I always like to observe people in the supermarket and look at people´s carts: why is it that the fit person has mostly vegetables and healthy food and the fat one has it full of junk and processed food...

    Down and out... a warning.

    HOT! MINDSET 
    Think of tge dorection you will like your life to take or what you do not like and what you need to change it. Then, try focusing in small measurable goals. They can be as simple as practice sports 3 hours per week. They might seem redundant but everything adds up. Keep it up! Enviado desde mi...

    I feel you, maybe not depression but I was in a very dark place a year ago and it took a strong waking call for me to move forward. Then, I got comfortable and when I less expected lost my job and a very special person in my life in the same week. But, through attitude I managed to turn...

    Absolutely! In my case, one of the perks of having been a law abiding corporate slave paying super high taxes for a long time is that, because I have been laid off, I will be receiving unemployment compensation. I think it is realistic for me to be making substantial earnings from my...

    @MTF Just dived into your progress thread, amazing stuff, thanks for sharing! I found it particularly enlightening and I felt reassured on my strategy of publishing separate stand alone books that are connected, and including targeted subversions. With that strategy I will be able to publish my...

    I used to think like you. Then July 1st turned into September 1st and so on and it was not until I had a FTE that I decided the moment to quit was NOW... be very careful with the logic of I will do it in that date, it will never be a perfect time. I understand your concern with health...

    Luckily for me I've always liked to live below my means, I own my house (so my expenses are low) and I have savings. I can afford to focus 100% without taking any type of job and bootstrap my business. I want to focus on non fiction self publishing on several topics related to each other that I...

    Hi felow fastlaners, First of all I want to admit here I am an addict. My drug? The slowlane. I know it is bad for my health, it will enslave me, it will make you unhappy and it will prevent me for being happy, but in moments of weakness I have gone back to it again and again. But, like any...
