    Signed a lease on a shop (Service Shop in the Auto Industry)

    NOTABLE! HOT! EXECUTION 
    Hey Carlitos, I am coming over from my Side-Hustle thread and I wanted to share some thoughts on your progress. I know that you are heavily focused on SEO, which works great for leads finding you locally. But I don't see much mention on your social media. What's your social media presence? I...

    Advice on starting a side hustle on sales with a hearing impairment.

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    Hey Carlitos, We have a lot in common. I spent most of my 20's living in Dallas, Texas. And during COVID, I also worked in mobile car washing/detailing, lol. I'm a software engineer focusing on virtual reality and as you can imagine, no one dared to share a headset with other people at the...

    Advice on starting a side hustle on sales with a hearing impairment.

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    Thank you for taking the time to reply and linking me to your other post. I have already messaged people I know and offered them my services. For context, I'm originally from Mexico City and I've lived in Dallas, Texas for 12 years before moving to NYC. Most of my network is largely from...

    Advice on starting a side hustle on sales with a hearing impairment.

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    Hello, Fastlaners! I have posted in the forums before and suddenly became a lurker...again. I won't lie, having been born deaf and living with hearing loss is a bitch. Mainly because interpersonal relationships and networking is much harder when I've struggled with clear communication skills...

    So WTF are NFTs all about? Buying JPGs? Why can't you just right-click save? Is this a giant ponzi? Far from it...

    HOT! CRYPTO 
    That makes sense, although I am not thinking about releasing an e-book, I was just wondering about the exclusivity of NFTs and how creators can benefit from making limited edition series. Still, if the author wants to keep releasing new editions because the previous edition owners are hogging...

    HOT! CRYPTO 
    I understand how the NFT royalties work. However, I need to understand the following: If you sell a limited edition e-book (let's say there are only 5 units, ever) that is so good that the next person who buys it pays about 10,000 for it, how exactly will the author benefit from royalties if...

    Where to find a partner or two

    I have partnered with several people I've met at MIT's 2020 Reality Hack Hackathon. I know that it's not feasible during these times to meet large groups of people in one space but it was incredibly easy to get to know people who share the same interests as me and everyone was super friendly...

    I am a new deaf fast laner and I want to share my story. (Long read)

    INTRO 
    Hey Fastlaners, Just a long overdue update: I closed my Virtual Reality business and I won my lawsuit settlement against my ex-real estate partner in court but I still have yet to collect reward since the dude is broke!. It has been a rough ride during COVID and had some real bastardized stress...

    NYC MEETUP - whatsapp group

    MEETUPS 
    Me, I just moved to NYC at the end of August and I'd be interested in meeting fellow fastlaners. I had to pause doing business due to COVID, but I am actively thinking about new ideas.

    Virtual Reality for Enterprise Solutions. - Help with feedback

    That's part of the reason why I've been in the VR game for a while, and being a indie developer with 3-D and programming skills...I feel pretty confident that I can provide value in this field. But as I mentioned in my first post, my downfall is pitching and selling. I don't have a strong sales...

    Virtual Reality for Enterprise Solutions. - Help with feedback

    It's great to get to know more VR developers in this forum, are you an indie developer? it'd be cool to connect, I usually frequent Oculus, and Magic Leap Discords. My big issue with developing "demos" or low-fi prototypes for prospective clients for free is that it does not guarantee...

    I am a new deaf fast laner and I want to share my story. (Long read)

    INTRO 
    Hey, I am back in the forums, and since my last post...I fell into a bad place in my life due to the anxiety of not having my investment money. This year has been a real rollercoaster, at the beginning of the year I participated in a hackathon at MIT and got to meet a lot of people who are into...

    Virtual Reality for Enterprise Solutions. - Help with feedback

    Hello Fastlaners!, I am working on my Extended Reality (VR/AR startup), and after several months of Research and Development, I've decided that instead of focusing in the Entertainment industry, I want to place focus on the Enterprise Industry. It is expensive to work on games that do not...

    Legal Document Assembly for Software Development?

    I agree, I've met some local lawyers and I guess the next step is to find IT lawyers. If I don't connect with some of them...is it possible to hire a lawyer form another state? will that be wise? I ask because I've had a fair share with lawyers who have very cold personalities and sometimes it...

    Legal Document Assembly for Software Development?

    I agree, would you please mind sharing with me your acquaintance's firm? to have a better idea. I'm 31 and I've already been involved in lawsuits, sometimes a general NDA is good enough, but to acquire legal documents that are generalized doesn't mean that it is a one-size-fit-all. From my...

    Legal Document Assembly for Software Development?

    Hey there, I'm "tidying up" my Virtual Reality startup and I replacing old CPA's and lawyers with new ones (they did a really terrible job advising me), and it's partly my fault for not being well informed on topics regarding accounting and law, but I guess this is what experience is for, right...

    Going Fastlane

    Hey, I took Java in college and I learned by writing code on paper, and designing calculators. No fun. The greatest thing about programming is that it helps with developing ideas and the process to a good idea is the problem solving that comes with it. Because of this, think clearly about what...

    Black Friday 2019 - What Did You Buy Today That Will Pay You Back Tomorrow?

    HOT! 
    I bought some new leather boots from Frye, some Udemy courses, and a discounted offer on HELIUM10 (for amazon FBA). I wish I could get more but I've been investing more in myself lately and I don't have time for extra stuff.

    Wow, $25,000 in a day

    It's crazy how much sneaker collectors pay for this stuff. I read about this kid, 19(?), is making millions by researching, collecting, and flipping sneakers.
