    How is coding a fast lane venture?

    SIDE HUSTLE WEB DESIGN 
    I know I'm going to get slammed for this, but I'm just curious. So many threads are people rushing to learn code. But why? I completely understand that coding is a valuable skill. But isn't it just another skill for a slowlane venture? If you spend months learning code on the side, and you...

    GOLD! IDEA 
    I love all these ideas and think this is absolutely the path to breaking out of the daily grind. I just have one issue that I can't get past. How do you start this with a full time job? I understand that customer service is extremely important if you want to bypass any local competition, and...

    Are you ignoring the gold right in front of you?

    HOT! MINDSET 
    Biggest part I struggle with is that I've been in this industry for 10+ years (HVAC Sales)....and I'm sick of it. Maybe it's a string of bad jobs, but I just don't want to do it anymore.

    Is the future Front-end, or Back-end?

    Really want to step up my coding knowledge, and had a thought. With the surge of AI and machine learning, which aspect of coding do you think will benefit the most? Will back-end development start to be more automated? With all of the "drag and drop" website development tools, will front-end...

    Gaming (Video, Board, etc)

    So that's the area I think could better. We don't need another "how to play." She just wants to know if a game is going to be fun. Almost like movie trailers for board games? Hmm, maybe I should revisit this idea. I even think D&D could make a comeback (especially because of Stranger...

    Gaming (Video, Board, etc)

    I guess I'm thinking more along the lines that only the main content creators (Actually make the game) have a shot at being successful. Of course plenty streamers are successful, but that's highly against most of CENTS. Time = Money, and if Twitch/Youtube shut down tomorrow then that would...

    Gaming (Video, Board, etc)

    Just a thought. Why aren't there more lucrative side business opportunities in the gaming industry? It's a billion dollar industry spread out across video and board games, and there is even more of a push for the board game side to "get away from technology" and spend more time with people...

    Bought and Revamped a Local Business?

    Have any of you found a small local business that wasn't really getting anywhere, purchased it, and proceeded to turn it around? What type of business was it? Did you find it through a flipping website or just through local meetups?

    GOLD! IDEA 
    Interesting. In doing this I just came upon a giant list in my area of every company that bid on some work and is a "hauler." Makes me wonder, has anyone done any work to help those types of companies? A "shovel" situation? Other than just offering a website, I'd rather do something with...

    I like that idea! Until sites purposely cause delayed load times to increase their ad revenue :frown:

    HOT! CHAT 
    Definitely the wrong group to complain to, but I feel like advertising has absolutely destroyed the web experience for me. I swear, every time I go to a site I am either smacked with the following: 1) Giant pop up saying I am not allowed to access content because of my ad blocker. BTW, this...

    Raleigh/Durham/Cary, NC (Triangle) Meetup

    MEETUPS 
    Thought I'd give this one a bump. I'm in Greensboro but am willing to head towards Raleigh if there's interest. I am definitely more on the beginner side but want to start surrounding myself with like minded people. Hanging out on the weekend with buddies all bitching about work isn't cutting it.

    Is your spouse Fastlane?

    I'm sure my name may look familiar to some of you as I'm always chasing some hair brain idea and I'm completely buried in analysis paralysis. However, there's one fact I've never said anything about on the forums. My wife is an entrepreneur already. She has her own business, however she's in...

    Need to Start Somewhere

    EXECUTION 
    Alright, let's go. Enough back and forth. Enough second guessing every single thing. I've brought this idea up with a few other people and it's the first one I've had that has pretty positive feedback. 1) General whole house checklist - I haven't seen a service like that, but I'm sure it...
