    I understand how men are broken

    RANT 
    Like others said, you need to get off the internet. You sound like you've been consuming a lot of very unhealthy stuff. It reads like stuff that Tate's followers spew out. They're all losers. Think of it this way: If someone is really, really strong, is lifting a lot of weight easy or hard for...

    How to find good clubs for entrepreneurs?

    HOT! MEETUPS 
    Are there any good international clubs where entrepreneurs meet up? It doesn't even have to be explicitly about business/networking, could be something else as well, as long as there are some interesting/successful people. Maybe something like Rotary or Junior Chamber International? Or some...

    How to invest excess money?

    INVESTING 
    Ok, for clarification: 1. Excess money is money that I don't need to pay my bills. It's not money that I don't need, I'm far from retirement. 2. I run a successful business. I'm not 20 years old with no education. Obviously when you're 20, you should invest in your education.

    How to invest excess money?

    INVESTING 
    What do you do when your income exceeds what you need to pay your bills? You can get 4-5% interest on USD, but as I don't live in the US, that's still risky for me due to the currency risk. Most people would tell you to put your money into broad-market index funds, but I remember that MJ...

    Surgeon Dilemma

    INTRO 
    If it's a hobby for you, keep doing it. If the primary goal is to make money, you should hire someone who can help you. You could then concentrate on being the product owner, which is time-consuming enough as it is. Software development is a complex skill. Sure you can learn some "coding" in a...

    Mobile Computer Support?

    IDEA 
    Oh, so for context, OP is 47, weighs 300lbs, he's unable to work 8+ hours per day, broke and living with his parents: https://www.thefastlaneforum.com/community/threads/what-would-you-do.108599/ Not sure what you're doing for a living at the moment, I guess you're living off your parents'...

    Mobile Computer Support?

    IDEA 
    Maybe running your own business is just not for you? Something about this whole thread just seems… off. You complain MJ hasn’t given you the secret to becoming rich, you have an idea (PC support), but then don’t even do basic calculations or take any action. Instead you ask strangers on the...

    Surgeon Dilemma

    INTRO 
    Why can't you scale your orthopedic business? Hire other surgeons to work for you? It's something that you already understand and where you have a massive competitive advantage. It's not like anyone can just open their own clinic.

    OP is probably in Iran. But even in Iran, you can improve your situation.

    Mobile Computer Support?

    IDEA 
    Look at what’s left of that after deducting your expenses. Taxes (sales tax/VAT, corporate tax, personal income tax/capital gains tax), social security contributions, health insurance, liability insurance for the business, transportation (even if it’s just a bus ticket), maybe phone/laptop for...

    What is the Phoenix of Europe?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Completely agree with what you wrote. If you put Romania on the list, you might as well include Bulgaria. Many (relatively) successful Europeans move to Bulgaria, again, for tax reasons, like with Romania. But I have no idea what it’s like there, I’ve never gone there.

    What is the Phoenix of Europe?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    I don't think you can really compare that. I live in Dubai and people from Western countries usually come here because of the low taxes, so it's usually people who are already successful who relocate here. Non-Western people mostly move to the UAE because of liberal immigration policies. That...

    Random Chat, Thoughts, Posts, and/or Rants Thread

    HOT! CHAT 
    That sounds like a terrible idea. You usually "attract" more of what you focus on (simply by paying more attention to such situations). How about a "assertiveness journal", where you write about situatios where you were able to stand up for yourself in a way that you think was adequate and...

    Feedback on an idea

    IDEA 
    I even agree with your statement that mental health is important, including men's mental health. But why would I want to wear a t-shirt with a quote related to mental health? And how would that help anyone? Something like wearing a bracelet or something similar for "mental health awareness...

    What is the Phoenix of Europe?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    I don't know, I think it's quite mixed? There's finance people and crypto bros, but also lots of people working in IT, a lot of "life coaches"/influencers, ... The biggest thing though is that there are a LOT of Russians.

    IDEA SIDE HUSTLE 
    I believe a lot of them run an MLM scheme as well. They tell you "Here's my book on how to get richt trading stocks/doing dropshipping/... - but if that's not for you, you can also make money referring new clients instead! And for everyone you refer, you also get a cut of all the new people they...

    What is the Phoenix of Europe?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Cyprus maybe? It has very low taxes, good weather and the overall a "small town" atmosphere. A friend of mine lives there and he loves it because it's very laid back, zero attitude, super successful people hanging out there in shorts and a t-shirt, not showing off their wealth, just happy to...

    Mobile Computer Support?

    IDEA 
    I like the idea, but how can you keep the cost low? Some things you may be able remotely, if you can get the users to install remote control software on their PC. But say someone needs help with setting up their new printer, or their PC "won't start", or they have some sort of virus/spyware on...

    I only watch porn once a day...

    MINDSET 
    In all honesty, that person probably has underlying issues that can't be fixed by simply working out more and watching less porn. There's a lot of undiagnosed autists on Reddit. It also shows in the kind of comments you mentioned.
