    Just had an amazing idea Now What?

    HOT! IDEA 
    Good to figure that out now rather than later! The fact those other companies weren't able to get enough funding on kickstarter suggests that there might not be much demand for this product. Also... How do you know that you could make it way cheaper when you have no experience with...

    Earning 10k+/month before 18

    If you aren't already familiar with Brennan Dunn's work, sign up for his free email course here (it's worth it). Also, read this book on charging what you are really worth. This is pure gold. I suspect you'll also pick up a few ideas from this article on "hacking Elance".

    Good idea or Really?

    IDEA RANT 
    I think an initial report that outlines all competitors followed by a subscription service where the customer will be notified whenever a new competitor is identified would be the best approach (assuming that it's all automated).

    Ideas for monetizing a photo sharing app

    IDEA 
    It's one of the best approaches in my opinion. Make a free app and offer additional features at a cost for those who want them. Have you figured out how you are going to get people to use it? Surely that comes first?

    Any bike commuters here?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Yep, I love riding my bike. I don't commute though (as I work from home). It's a great way to recharge after a morning's work.

    Can't believe it

    HOT! MINDSET 
    Yep. Absolutely. This may be of interest @RadioActive: 'Open letter to myself at 15' I look back at my 25yo self and smile at how much he knew for sure. I'm sure the same will happen again in another 10 years. Just keep heading in the right direction mate.

    Just got married... Now I feel restricted and powerless

    MINDSET RANT 
    Or they might be up a couple of thousand? Who knows. There are plenty of people in this forum who have been able to make good money reselling things... I don't see why that wouldn't apply to @dompie85. Perhaps... although it depends if your wife feels the same way. Has she shown any interest...

    Just got married... Now I feel restricted and powerless

    MINDSET RANT 
    I suspect that she does know this but simply doesn't agree with the way you are approaching things. I was once married. We were in debt... a lot of debt. I wanted to invest $5000 that we didn't have in a new business. I had no previous business success, but was sure I was on a winner. At the...

    An inspirational story - never give up

    MINDSET 
    Great story. I remember being impressed with how well Brett Kelly did with his Evernote Essentials book, so seeing someone do something similar successfully comes as no surprise. I wonder what other software there is that could benefit from this kind of training?

    My dad won't let me leave school

    What a wonderful outcome! I'm really pleased that you were able to speak with your dad about this again and that you've come to a decision that makes sense for both of you. While not essential, it's always nice to have support from your parents. So what's the next step for your business?

    How Walking in Nature Changes the Brain

    MINDSET 
    Yes. For me it's bike riding. I just sneak away from work for an hour or three, jump on my bike and leave town. It gives me time to think and it's nice to really breathe.

    My dad won't let me leave school

    @Olavi, you are an adult and need to make your own decisions. I'm a Dad. I can appreciate where your Dad is coming from, he wants what is best for you. That being said, it doesn't mean that he is right. Personally, I think it is silly to spend four years and ~$120,000 getting a degree that...

    Got fired. Started a business. Critique my copy?

    MARKETING 
    The copy doesn't work for me. You'd have lost me by the second line (and I suspect I am in your target market). I think you may find this story interesting - it's a bit old, but should spark some good ideas for your cleaning business.
