    Have you had your "FTE"? (Or Was it an FTM?!)

    GOLD! MINDSET FTE CHAT 
    I used to think I have had a FTE but now realize they were just a FTM. 8 months ago I was working in a job I hated with a boss that was making my life miserable and have been wanted to quit for a long time, but was postponing it. Until one day the colleague who was sitting next to me died from...

    Trying to loose weight (not succeeding )

    HEALTH 
    My advice would be first: stop obsessing about weight, it is just a number. In any case. What is your height? 172 sounds like a healthy weight for a guy average height. Also, if you have started exercising more often it is common to gain weight (despite being leaner, healthier and slimmer)...

    Going "All-In" on ONE cryptocurrency... which?

    NOTABLE! CRYPTO INVESTING 
    I was thinking more use case + optimal roak reward. But with this framing of kust existing in 5 years I would be more conservative and change my response to either BTC or ETH, leaning more towards BTC. If there is a crypto that has proven resilience it is BTC, plus all crypto market is...

    Going "All-In" on ONE cryptocurrency... which?

    NOTABLE! CRYPTO INVESTING 
    Leaving aside that I would never put all my eggs in one basket, and even less in am speculative investment, my top crypto holding (along with ETH) and favorite project right now is Enjin Coin (ENJ). Here is why: 1) Big industry to which the project has a big potential of improvement (gaming...

    Crawling thru a sewer pipe filled with sh*t: Why it matters.

    GOLD! MINDSET 
    MJ, thanks for this powerful and vivid metaphor. It is just what I needed today! I quit my job almost a month ago and moved back to my country and came to some unexpected shit that is draining my savings, on top the expected shit (dealing with the bureaucracy and high taxes you have to pay in...

    The importance of being true to yourself (and the power of choice)

    MINDSET 
    I would like to share with you my journey to the biggest lesson I have learnt during one of the darkest but most transformative phases of my life. It is what has finally enabled me to commit to the fastlane for good: no more excuses, no more fear. A little bit of context: My parents are quite...

    Before you pick a Financial Advisor....

    RANT 
    Good question. In my opinion, hiring and advisor is worth it when you have so much money that managing it is a job by itself. Or maybe earlier if you are a total disaster with your finances or have very little knowledge about financial products (although I would recommend anyone tonleran the...

    I think this is quite spot on. In the bank I used to work for they had a script about almost everything and management wanted it to be homogeneous as a part of the client experience, and most banks do the same. To tell you the truth that was one of the reasons why I decided to leave the...

    I use that strategy too for my core portfolio :) in fact I wouldn't recommend trading options unless you know what you are doing and have very high tolerance to risk. Options are a great tactical trade to obtain enhanced results with money you are willing to put at risk (as MJ describes very...

    RANT 
    That totally makes sense, certainly it is logical to use the Roth for more aggressive investments, my first guess was that as well. What I do not know is if there are any constrains to the type of investments you can make in a Roth without losing the benefit or if there is total freedom. If it...

    Financial advisors like ETFs as much as taxi drivers like Uber, LOL. About your question, sorry to disappoint but I do not know about IRAs and/or US tax efficient investments (about tax efficient investments a little more but that only from personal experience). Aside from the basics I studied...

    In that I totally agree, lack of experience is another issue, I was just refuting the net worth part. What I meant was that you can have a lot of experience managing millions and giving advice on such topics without being a millionaire yourself or having experienced such issues first hand (but...

    Any female fastlaner(s) interested in an accountability partner?

    Hi Ayda, sounds great! I am interested, I am from Europe and early 30 as well, plus, for what you say about yourself I am sure we would probable get along and be a good fit. Right now I am in the US but will be moving to my country soon. I recently quit my job to focus on entrepreneurship. I...

    Why not? Being very good at creating wealth has nothing to do with being very good at preserving it or investing it right.

    Interesting experience. I think you make excellent points but you are missing some additional ones that I believe are also very important. To put you into some context, I have worked as a financial advisor in the past and this are my main takeaways of important things to consider: 1) Ask the...

    Hi guys, I just wanted to share the beginning of my journey with you guys. After what felt like an eternity, I finally handed my resignation from my 6 figures job to return to my country and focus full time on pursuing my entrepreneurial goals. After delivering the news, I received all sorts...

    Bitcoin / Cryptocurrency Discussion (And Predictions)

    HOT! CRYPTO CHAT 
    I agree, and to a lesser extent I foresee a similar trend for ETH, as it is also another entry coin and most alts are also quoted against it. I believe tons of institutional money will flow into the market in 2018, and it will do so mainly via BTC but I think reasonable that ETH will benefit...

    What Are The Best Altcoins To Look Out For In Cryptocurrencies?

    HOT! CRYPTO INVESTING 
    One of my top holdings is ENJ, a utility token in the gaming industry. I really like the project, it has a great team, solid roadmap and it is a company well established in their industry. It is still flying under the radar but I don't think it will be for long. If you are looking for a solid...
