    Zero to One Millions by Ryan P Allis

    Great review, rep+++! And thanks for posting it now...a bit ironic, being that I just received my copy of the book from Amazon today! Were part of the campaign to make his book #1 on Amazon on 2/5, too?!

    Speed Bumps on the Fastlane

    Not sure if that's gonna happen as of now, but I'm happy to answer your question. The store belongs to my friend's dad. He also owns the warehouse that supplies the store -- the warehouse supplies many other stores, as well -- so the store isn't as important to him. However, this could lead...

    Speed Bumps on the Fastlane

    You'll have to put the time in with a web-business if you want it to succeed, but the right ideas definitely CAN produce. Plowing could work. Run some numbers if you really just need some quick cash. Figure out how long it would take to repay yourself your original investment amount. If it's a...

    Speed Bumps on the Fastlane

    You're 19? Are you in school? What is in demand near you? Landscaping? Painting? Those fields have relatively low-entry barriers and can make you some decent money. There's always the web-route, too.

    Speed Bumps on the Fastlane

    I agree with Redshft. And if you're gonna go, travel smart. Find good deals. Maybe compromise: instead of going on a lavish retreat in the Carribean, cut back a little and find a less-expensive location with similar attributes. Or, try discussing the situation with the lucky girl. Try and...

    My Roadmap to the Fastlane [through REI and business building]

    Re: My Roadmap to the Fastlane [through REI and business building Thanks a lot for the input. I really appreciate the criticism, especially when it's constructive! :) Regarding your first comment: I think this all gets back to focus and discipline. When I'm up late, it's usually because I...

    My Roadmap to the Fastlane [through REI and business building]

    Re: My Roadmap to the Fastlane [through REI and business building Okay. I was about to start a thread venting about how little I've really accomplished because I still haven't really taken action, but I decided that I'd be better off checking up on my plan. Honestly, I'm pretty pissed off...

    Maybe "failure" is the key to success...?

    Thanks! And yes, it is becoming routine! haha I'm linking my post to yours as well; I thought I did before, but apparently it slipped my mind.

    Lessons Learned from The Fastlane

    GOLD! MINDSET 
    Re: Lessons Learned from TFTM I agree with the point about failure so much that I even made a thread devoted to it! http://www.thefastlanetomillions.com/showthread.php?p=28222#post28222

    Maybe "failure" is the key to success...?

    I was writing a practice prompt for the SATs a few weeks ago, and I was intrigued by the topic for the prompt. The introduction and question were this: I thought it was a very interesting topic, and I considered starting a thread on it here at TFTM, but I never did because I thought it had...

    Homeless: Can you build a life from $25?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Interesting story. Rep+++ I'd say it's a bit Slowlane, but there are some Fastlane principles within the story. For instance, setting a plan and sticking to it. Good find. Btw, does anybody else see the resemblance to "Chase" from "House, M.D." on FOX?

    4*25% or 1*100% ?

    Your English isn't bad at all for a 3rd language. I just think it was too general of an idea to be understood by everyone. Try using some more details next time; that should help. :) If this is the case and you plan on focusing 100% on each project while they're under your control, I think...

    Depreciation?

    REAL ESTATE 
    Rep+++ for you both...excellent responses. JScott, how do you determine the value of the building as opposed to the value of the property? Would it just be as simple as the difference between the assessed value of the entire property and local property comps, or is it more complex than that?

    4*25% or 1*100% ?

    I took the idea a little differently. I thought he was talking about starting up the business by running it for a year or so, then selling the majority off to someone else. I think that that idea would have some potential. If you're a true entrepreneur and not a manager, you may be better...

    Advice for E-Entrepreneurs (Domains)

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    I agree. The site could have some potential value, though, if there is a bigger site that would be interested in buying you out to redirect traffic. CoMp1eX, I'd recommend buying anything that seems like it could be of value. Think about it...if you buy 70 sites, and even just ONE of them is...
