    To Raise Money or Not

    Hey everyone, I would love to hear your advice about the topic of raising funding or continuing to bootstrap my company. There is not a yes or no answer, but I think hearing an outside perspective would be very helpful! To give you some context. After graduating from a top university, I...

    CRYPTO INVESTING 
    Good point, the thing is, deploying capital in my current business is limited and more long-term (my current business is essentially an investment company in another alternative asset class which takes time to cater a return.) That's why crypto would be fit in as it would be simply another...

    Buying a 1 euro property in Italy? Too good to be true?

    REAL ESTATE 
    I'm Italian, and most of these 1 euro properties are in the region where I come from. The obvious catch is that these houses are in remote villages where you will be living with a bunch of old people. Pros: cost of living is very low there are a few other foreigners that thought the same...

    I have a plan. Regarding Cryptos

    CRYPTO INVESTING 
    It depends largerly on how much you invest. If your goal is making 1 mln $ out of crypto, investing 50k into crypto trying to 20X it's way more probable to happen than investing 5K and 200X it. However, it's also way more probable that you will make this kind of money from a business where...

    Fed Up With Your Country? Where Is Left to Go?

    HOT! 
    I spent a lot of time thinking and researching around this subject (as I was born in a place with a culture of hating entrepreneurs and unrewarding towards who produces wealth... No wonders there's 51% youth unemployment rate in the city I grew up in.) The most libertarian country with a...

    Post Your Stock/Option Picks, What are You Trading?

    INVESTING 
    Here are a few I've been eyeing lately. I'm not investing a lot in the stock market at this moment because of the inflated prices, keeping more cash position waiting for a potential adjustment on the market: Alibaba is huge but highly controversial at the moment. I've invsted in it at around...

    Yep, I'm still plan to put in a bunch of money when the market will be more bearish but I don't want to distract myself too much from my business :)

    CRYPTO INVESTING 
    Very good point, thanks. That's essentially what I was thinking, thanks for confirming this, I really needed an external opinion Thanks MJ! I was re-reading TMF and it did give me a lot of focus on what truly matters. This message here gave me yet another hint to remain focused and diversify...

    CRYPTO INVESTING 
    The question is more about whether it's the right time at this stage of revenues of my company to "diversify" or to just focus instead

    CRYPTO INVESTING 
    Yet another conversation about crypto on the forum... Jokes apart, as many of us these days, I'm wondering to which point crypto can be a wealth creator instead of an income producer for Fastlane entrepreneurs. My business is currently making around $10k a month, and over the last years, I kept...

    GOLD! INVESTING 
    While reading this I was thinking "but what about Warren Buffet" lol You're right. Even other famous value investors began as active investors in the stock market after a liquidity event or similar: - Monish Pabrai sold his first company (an IT agency) for several millions. - Guy Spier...

    Feeling Like I Built Myself a Cage

    Thank you for sharing your take. You understood very well the situation. To me the agency was always just a source of income to finance my main media/publishing business. That's my end-goal and what motivated me. Now that the media company is financing itself I kept the agency to feel more...

    Building an Authority Site in a hobby niche- on an expired domain.

    EXECUTION 
    Good luck buddy! I actually experimented with this about 8 months ago, in 6 months my dropped domain bought on Godaddy action was already making money, while my other projects built on fresh domains were still not getting any good results. If you have any questions feel free to ask, happy to...

    Feeling Like I Built Myself a Cage

    Thanks for sharing your thoughts. Yes, and I'm not doing most of the work already. However, the cost-intensive part is having someone manage the project and those who do the menial tasks to carry through the campaign (laying the bricks like in your example.) I'm simply not interested in it...

    Feeling Like I Built Myself a Cage

    Have you ever quit a business or simply a business model that it's making you money, simply because you don't enjoy it. Deep down, I know that after being in it for over two years I know that it would make my journey way more enjoyable, but that's when I hear a voice in my head saying...

    WTF does Tai Lopez do?

    GURUS 
    Tai had some excellent advice/thoughts in-between all the info he gives to entertain his young and distractable audience... He introduced me to stoicism with his book summary of "On Shortness of Life," and some of his interviews like the one with Ferritta are pure gold. Really interesting also...
