    Let's Flip Stuff for Fun and Profit!

    HOT! SIDE HUSTLE 
    This is easily my #1 gripe with Facebook Marketplace. There's not enough friction when it comes to inquiring about an item. It's actually too easy. Everyone is already scrolling FB on their phone 24/7, and now there is a way for them to send messages without actually having to write them...

    Let's Flip Stuff for Fun and Profit!

    HOT! SIDE HUSTLE 
    Another good place to look for things to sell are you-pull-it junkyards. Flipping car parts to ebay is how I made most of my money in college. Almost all you-pull-it yards you pay by what the part is, not what it comes off of. A headlight will cost $25 whether it comes off a BMW 7-series or...

    Generation Z Apocalypse: is it coming? The Fear is Here.

    HOT! MARKETING 
    I'm having trouble following some of your post, but I can speak on this a little. There is a common assumption among older generations that Gen Z is super tech literate because they grew up with the internet. My experience (I work in IT and regularly deal with tech problems from users of all...

    Breaking My Phone Addiction

    HOT! MINDSET 
    I set out to reduce my screen time a couple months ago and got from ~2 hrs a day to <30 minutes a day. At this point my phone is basically just used for calling/texting and basic utilities like calculator and alarm clock. Delete the apps that are a waste of time. If you aren't willing to...

    EXECUTION 
    My plan is sponsored ads on Amazon. But I'm admittedly a complete newbie when it comes to advertising so that may change as I learn more. Similar to this thread, the product will include a link / qr code to my website for downloadable extras to capture emails.

    EXECUTION 
    I found a competing product selling very well on Amazon (~30,000 sold last year) that I think I can beat in terms of delivering a better value at a competing price.

    EXECUTION 
    I've been mostly lurking around here the past few weeks and finishing up a (re)read of TMF (now reading Unscripted as well which I've never read before.). Figured it was time I start contributing as well. I've flirted with "side hustles" and being a wantrapreneur for pretty much the last...

    What Is Deep Work.. Really?

    MINDSET 
    Personally I would push back on that idea a little. Lots of entrepreneurs are writers or programmers (among other things like marketers, customer service, etc.) MJ being an example. That may not be the title on the business card, but depending on what your business is, there's a very high...

    I've Read The Millionaire Fastlane!

    GOLD! HOT! 
    Just finished a re-read of TMF. I read it years ago when I was in college, but the right parts didn't "stick" for me at that time. I was too much of a money-chasing wantrapreneur. I'm over that now and ready to make steady continuous progress towards a Fastlane business that delivers real value.

    Intro - Sick of the Slowlane

    INTRO 
    Hi everyone. I guess this post is a long time coming. I read the Millionaire Fastlane about 10 years ago when I was in college. I'm due for a re-read. I've always had a bit of an entrepreneurial spirit. Rather than working a traditional "student job" when I was in college, I paid my bills...
