    Buying an Old 'Bux

    ^I see where you're coming from, and I definitely appreciate the advice of fastlaners -- which I obviously am not (yet). I just don't see why grabbing freebies along the way is wrong. I don't want to be 50, saying "why didn't I do that thing that came along when I was 20?" Along the lines of...

    Buying an Old 'Bux

    Yes! And that's what I'm doing: laying the groundwork for an empire. Yeah, that horse is dead. In accordance with my goals and values: 90% of my energy is in writing/publishing/promoting my eBook right now. 5% is in laying the groundwork for the revenue/opportunities that will come from that...

    Buying an Old 'Bux

    Yeah, coffee is NOT my plan, but I wondered if I could incorporate it. I keep trying to explain to my GF that we don't want to be shopkeepers. She keeps trying to explain that she doesn't want to be a millionaire. LOL!

    Buying an Old 'Bux

    A local Starbucks with great earnings* and goodwill is being closed by the licensee. The customers are bummed, as it is the only coffee shop or hang-out for 10 miles in all directions. The location is for lease. Should I grab it and create my own coffee shop with the same...

    Not bad for them. You have to work for free if you ever want to work for pay. Think of it as an internship.

    Critique My eBook Sales Page!

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    I've made some vague references to an eBook I'm working on. It's developed enough that I would really like to request some specific criticism. See the rough draft of my sales page for Luck-Struck: How to Take Control and Create Your Own Luck. (I know, I know: it's a hyphenated domain. But the...

    Should I take Pre-Orders on my eBook?

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Yeah, it will be interesting trying to strike a balance between providing "appetizing" content and inspiring a desire to purchase. As far as being up at 3:30a, my time; that's not my idea. I'm covering a night shift for a sick employee. Yay for a screwed up REM cycle!

    Should I take Pre-Orders on my eBook?

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    I like the 1st chapter free, idea. I'll incorporate that idea as I write (by treating it like a teaser). I'm also thinking that if it has any measure of success as an eBook, I will have it printed with an ISBN, so that I can sell it to the old-fashioned set. The markup would be lower, but I'd...

    As you guys know from Writing a Stupid eBook, I am... well, I'm writing an eBook. I have a few questions, and I'd love advice from people who've done it and also from people who haven't (for a consumer perspective). Should I start promoting now and take pre-orders? Is this smart? Ethical...
