    Book Summary Services - Worth It?

    Thanks @Madhu and @Digamma, you've given me more to think about. Books meant to transmit Wisdom (the most valuable kind) need to be experienced in depth. And I've added Meditations to my reading list.

    Leaving the Sidewalk

    EXECUTION 
    This is going to be a different kind of progress thread. It will have businesses in it in the future, but Ive got to get to that point first! One week and a day since I talked about my fear of comfort. It's night, the air is fresh, and though I'm in a city its temporarily quiet and I am...

    Book Summary Services - Worth It?

    Thanks @germandude and @axiom! If these aren't providing real value to people, then I am going to steer clear.

    Book Summary Services - Worth It?

    Thanks, @JDx I appreciate the input! I also like the real deal, and don't really know how they would work with books that are basically all anecdote like The $100 Startup.

    Book Summary Services - Worth It?

    One complaint I have heard around the forum is that they have a never ending backlog of books to read. This got my problem solving senses itching, so I started to look around for business book summarizing services. Lo and behold, there seems to be quite a few big players in this business. Even a...

    Sales = Validation?

    Just another thought. How many beatz does your typical budding rapper use in a month? If you know this, you can set better individual and monthly prices. For example, if you are pricing beatz at 1 dollar, and selling unlimited for 30 dollars a month, its only worth it to the subscriber if they...

    Create a start-up while employed? or focus resources on start-up?

    EXECUTION 
    I'm in a job now and plan to stay in it for a while. That being said, I would NOT recommened you do the same. Jobs come with a great deal of temptation and accompanying golden handcuffs. You can work on your dream while wearing them, but it will be so much harder if you do. You are moving and...

    How to negotiate and come to a Price conclusion

    I'm curious to know how the experts will respond to this question. I had to choose an hourly rate for myself recently, and I actually did negotiate my Slowlane salary. Both times I ended up screwing myself. When I had a J** interview, they had me set a range and then offered me a salary in the...

    Land

    What a cool place to be in, though I would be tempted just to build a cabin in the middle of it and stay there. As for your idea, have looked into installing electrical hookups? Even very basic campsites often have an outlet or two. Additionally, how far away are you from a Wal Mart (RVs often...

    Material to learn Tele-Sales

    Thanks, this is what I have to do. My best plan is to get a sales job that fits around my 9-5 while reducing expenses like mad. Yes, its a bit of Slowlane strategy, the difference is that I am going to use the side income to build a warchest specifically for doing Fastlane stuff. The added...

    Should I buy a car?

    MINDSET 
    Lots of good opinions here, but I think @ZPC hits the nail on the head. Take over the payment on your current car, and keep driving it if its nice enough to for driving clients. Either way, I think financial independece is an awesome feeling that is worth the monthly cost of the Jeep.

    I Fear Comfort

    MINDSET 
    I think I'm afraid of comfort, and I think I should scared by it even more. Scared of the comfort of mediocrity, or the golden handcuffs Ive already put on, and the golden shackles, ball, chain, and noose that are waiting for me. I'm afraid the siren song of mediocrity, convention, a weekly...

    You Will Never Be A Millionaire!

    HOT! MINDSET 
    Im generally happy and upbeat to those that insult me because 1) I think its funny, and 2) It short circuits their brains, causing angst and confusion. Apparently once in high school somebody punched me at a party (im sure I deserved it), but instead of responding in anger I just asked "why?"...

    AMA: Health/Fitness - Clinical Exercise Physiologist

    HEALTH 
    Hi! So, I hear about people who get so into exercising that they feel 'wrong' if they miss a day. I've tried to get into a regular routine before, but I have never management to hit this point. I want to know: is there a way to super-charge the exercise habit or addiction, so I can get to a...

    Material to learn Tele-Sales

    Im currently looking for a second sales job myself. Im scared of sales now, but figure I train myself out of that through repeated exposure, and doing some mental rewiring (telling myself that sales is cool, not 'dirty', and that I enjoy doing it).

    Flipping cars, appliances, and other assets.

    NOTABLE! SIDE HUSTLE 
    One way to approach the problem, based on The Millionaire Fastlane, is to ask yourself “is this car flip an event, or the result of a process?” If you’ve been actively studying the car market, have done all your research and your homework, have made similar deals in the past, and this is the...
