    Business Degress?

    On a side note - if you choose college do some CLEP's and DANTES. Both are "credit by exam" and most institutions accept 30 semester credits by exam. Some will accept much more. Go to collegeboard.com and getcollegecredit.com to check both out. I've taken 10 exams over the last year and...

    Business Degress?

    What's the cost? Agree with all Jscott said. I will add that case studies alone are very powerful ways to learn. Philosophy and theory only take you so far. College is a medium to learn and network. If you want to run a business you have to learn the skills somehow. Experience is huge...

    The Future of Web Startups

    It's been said that college grooms students for corporate life. I bet they'll always be neglecting the real wealth building principles in institutions. If they get you to think too independently -what do you need them for? College is a business. As for low barrier's to entry it doesn't mean...

    What do you think of my current situation?

    Also, I commend you exploring this at your age. I think if I would have been on the internet at 16 I would have had a much faster learning curve. If you're looking to invest your money in a venture - be very shrewd. Since you like the auto-racing industry I'd do something with that. That's...

    What do you think of my current situation?

    My advice... Don't spend your money on a Porsche. The biggest mistake I see us young folk make is when they have a little money they spend it on stuff they don't need. Wait as long as you can and buy the cheapest RELIABLE car that you can. Buying expensive stuff early just keeps you stuck...

    I have another. It's a bit modified though. It's from Good Will Hunting. Will: "He used to just put a belt, a stick, and a wrench on the kitchen table and say, "Choose." Sean: Well, I gotta go with the belt there. Will: I used to go with the wrench. Sean: Why? Will: Cause f---...

    Community sites/Virtual Sites/Lead Sites

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Regarding lead gen sites, I have a lead gen site for health insurance leads that I developed. I modeled prospectzone.com and built a 10 page platform using open-source PHP to gather the health info. This is very complicated on the scale of forms and still I didn't find it too difficult just...

    So its finally done! Biz Sold!

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    :banana: Nice work on the sale. Even more so, nice work on the growth. Not sure if I missed the final sale price but being in that range you mentioned and buying the biz for $250K is solid. Thanks for your insights...

    How to build a website

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    IMO, it's wise to think in terms of if this is a skill you want to develop or if it's just a task that you should outsource. I think that knowing how to build and maintain a site is a crucial skill for an e-entrepreneur. To be more specific, know how to put the work of others together...

    SUCCESS STORY - Cantwait2

    GOLD! EXECUTION 
    I read your story and it reminds me of the decisions we make and how that's really where the rubber meets the road. Most people would rather be unhappy than face uncertainty. I've been there, asking "what the hell am I doing?". It's those moments that we really learn who we are. What a...

    No Plan, No Capital, No Model...No Problem

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Andrew... Great work. "How I did it" articles and interviews cannot be topped. It's like the Harvard Business Case Study method. Your point about spending 90% of our time on that little 5% is why we fail is VERY IMPORTANT!!!

    Why?

    Purpose... "A man who becomes conscious of the responsibility he bears toward a human being who affectionately waits for him, or to an unfinished work, will never be able to throw away his life. He knows the "why" for his existence, and will be able to bear almost any "how."" -Victor Frankl

    Why?

    Purpose... I've learned I have a deep desire inside to do something for others that makes a difference, be a leader, be respected, etc. After 6 years of the entrepreneurial world I'm making a drastic change and pursuing something I've secretly wanted to do - but never had the confidence and...
