    Any fastlaners live in Florida?

    EXECUTION 
    Moved to Tallahassee until at least next spring. I have family here and in Jacksonville. They are kind enough to let me stay in the guest room while testing demand for new projects. I've had my own place since 19, so didn't want to do this (although they do have room) It's just an...

    Does your product get more or less valuable as it scales??

    It's an interesting question. (via Seth Godin) For example, collectible fine art becomes less valuable the more times you paint it or print it. At least in the eyes of art collectors. When I was younger and found an awesome shirt, it would've ruined it if one of my friends showed up...

    Ever wonder how people end up in dead end jobs at 40?

    GOLD! 
    Very good writing. Thanks for sharing. Reminds me of the other day, when I was in line to pick up carry out. The group in front of me was congratulating a lady who was about to retire. They were all quite a bit older. I'd guess she was in her 60s or maybe even 70s. Scared the work right...

    HOT! IDEA 
    Haha I meant 2 things by that: - This forum a such a better use of time than the many hilarious time-waster websites I avoid at all costs. - If not many people get the reference, I'm probably amongst more experienced entrepreneurs that I can really learn from.

    The $800,000,000 dollar man- Jerry Seinfeld- Shares his one secret to success

    ^This works, just get started. Also... "People overestimate what can be accomplished in a day, but underestimate what can be accomplished in a month if they slightly lower the bar, but are just consistent." Heard Tim Ferris say that on a podcast, and find it to be really useful. Doesn't have...

    Any tips on how to validate a mobile video game idea?

    IDEA 
    Of course that's just what I'm going to try based on what I read on the computernet... The only real validation I've tried is posting art on Facebook, and asking people what types of games they prefer and why. My guess is the only people who respond to validation techniques are early...

    Any tips on how to validate a mobile video game idea?

    IDEA 
    You could make digital screenshot mock-ups that look like it's a real game, with a description of the game play. Show it to people (don't tell them the screenshots aren't real), and try to get them to take some sort of action. From what I've read, words and pats on the back don't count with...

    Do you have to give up your social life to become rich?

    HOT! PEOPLE 
    It takes a lot of work up front to achieve freedom. You can either make time for it or be a life long employee with 5:2 work/life balance. Just ask my 75 year old dad who's still on the clock when he should be on a golf course.

    When consumers clock out, they switch to full on vacation mode. Aside from chores, they aren't doing ANY work man. Don't sweat it, my friends are the worst. They're hilarious and awesome, but waste away all their time. Looks fun actually, but I'm not jealous. They will be right where they...

    We are entrepreuneurs and must be healthy to deliver: how do you do it?

    I keep it simple. No 6am or cold showers like you savages! Just get enough sleep, exercise, and healthy food. One cup of coffee, lots of water. Although I will say plyometric style exercises make me quicker mentally and physically. Makes sense, they're reactive exercises that target fast...
