    Areas in life where 4-hour weeks actually get you somewhere

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Gym definitely! Reading Cooking Organising experiences (if you spend 4 hrs a week to look for new places, experiences and things to do, you might be amazed what you can do, even in your 30 day vacation)

    Why do people assume it takes long to build a decent body?

    HEALTH 
    The main problem of most people about doing anything is to "get uncomfortable". May it be about earning money, losing weight and getting in shape or anything at all. Nobody wants to move their a$$ for something and most people are motivated by instant gratification.

    My FBA journey

    EXECUTION 
    Thanks for your wishes! It is a bit difficult to guess something like that. But I have to differentiate somehow and the item is a quite simple item. So packing it well would improve the quality of the listing itself and would differentiate me into a different class...

    My FBA journey

    EXECUTION 
    To tell you the truth, I do not have access. All I know is that there are sellers that sell the same product (an unboxed way) at a slightly lower price than me. I want to make a better listing and box the item so that I can sell it for %20 more. The listings of them are also not top notch...

    Porn site owner who enjoys fast lane success IAMA on Reddit

    NOTABLE! EXECUTION 
    Well dudes, if my daughter were to be freaky about sex, so be it. I am quite freaky myself as well, and if she wants to enjoy herself, she should go for it. I do not think the ethical side of the business is something absolutely 'wrong' or 'right'. Everyone can think in a different way about...

    Has Moving to a Warm and Sunny Climate Made You Happier?

    NOTABLE! MINDSET 
    I am from Turkey, from Ankara. Winters with heavy snow and summers burning above 40 degrees. I have moved to Germany about 8 years ago and for the last 6 years, I had winter blues. I was always prone to depression but I believe the weather has a huge effect on me. Besides, there is nothing...

    It is much money for me right now, I cannot afford to lose this. If I had 3m, I could afford to lose 50k though.

    All I have is Money... Best High Investment Business Ideas?

    HOT! IDEA 
    My advice would be to choose one of these sectors and find a dude that does the work already successfully but needs money to expand. Be an investor in these areas. I would, for example, choose food production, because I love fresh, exotic food. One of my dreams is to bring stuff like coconut...

    Advice: Has Anyone Groomed Themselves to Enter The American Elite?

    HOT! MINDSET 
    I see that the majority of people here are from Western countries, where the GDP per person is at least 30k$. However, I am from Turkey. My whole childhood was ridden with economic crises, first in 94 then in 99 and then in 01. The economy is still very instable and double-digit inflation is a...

    EXECUTION 
    Maybe a small update. I have already ordered two samples from alibaba for my product. The set I ordered costs 6$ for on aliexpress for three pieces, and the only seller in Amazon Germany takes 15€ for one piece as of now. I am also looking for another supplier on alibaba. I found one, but she...

    Yes, otherwise creating physical products make absolutely no sense. :)

    My FBA journey

    EXECUTION 
    I do not get your point, sorry. According to what you say, creating my own products would also not help, because 'the only winners' are Amazon and Jungescout. Or did I misunderstand?

    My FBA journey

    EXECUTION 
    I am not doing that. I would have loved to bring that stainless steel French press, but it is just not viable. There is little to improve in that, it would be a "me too" product. I would only do that if I really can change the design of the product.

    My FBA journey

    EXECUTION 
    Currently, I have found some replacement part of some popular product. Something like the dust bag of a popular vacuum cleaner for example. Costs about 12$. I can find it for 1-2$ a piece. It has no sellers in Germany and a few sellers in USA, but it is a very simple, generic thing. I have...

    My FBA journey

    EXECUTION 
    Points to be cleared out: 1 - Can I trust these numbers from JungleScout? (Should I run a few 999 tests to validate them?) 2 - Is my keyword vs. product approach valid? (I tried to emulate how a customer would reach my product on this. The goal is to be in top 10 on a popular keyword, isn't...

    My FBA journey

    EXECUTION 
    My Product Selection: Like everyone at the beginning, I stick to following criteria: - 20-40$ range - more than 3000$ revenue - less than 75 reviews for at least 7 of top 10 sellers - not a seasonal product - no clothing (because of the variations) - no electronics & machinery (because of the...

    Hello everyone and welcome to my thread! I have read TMF about 1.5 year ago, when I was done with my PhD. Since then, I have been trying to find a job and create an income source, so that I can finance a side hustle. It was a very hard year behind me, but it is over, no need to complain about...
