    Life changing books you GOT to read at least once your lifetime

    MINDSET 
    Ooooh so many books come to mind. I'll have to revisit this thread, but I'll throw out a few: Mere Christianity by C.S. Lewis The Hobbit + The Lord of the Rings by J.R.R. Tolkien Orthodoxy by G.K. Chesterton

    If I got a nickel for the amount of times someone in the comments of that article recommended sharks with lasers, I would have 2 nickels, which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice.

    STOP Paying Rent: Live For Free

    GOLD! REAL ESTATE 
    Thanks for the response! Wow, only 48? Just kidding. I guess one big question (which is really just more of a doubt of mine than a question) has to do with stories I’ve heard of people purchasing real estate without any of their own money. Is this actually true? Of course, I’m sure this took...

    GOLD! REAL ESTATE 
    I'm really happy to see this thread still somewhat active even 10 years later. My wife and I are looking into RE, and we want to build our Fastlane Fortress. Thank you for the info! Does anyone else involved in RE have anything to add given today's market? I know that the market can be...

    I’m a Fastlaner. I’m such a Fastlaner, in fact, that whenever I see a group of kids selling water and lemonade next to our town’s pickleball courts I tell my wife “Wow! They’re young entrepreneurs!”

    NOTABLE! HOT! 
    How is this thread not gold already? Lol THIS right here is my current predicament/mind-f*ck: I’m gonna be totally honest. I went to school for Civil Engineering and realized halfway through that what I really wanted to do was Architecture. However I figured I was too far into engineering to...

    Okay I guess that’s pretty obvious :happy: I got my EIT license in May of 2023. It would be interesting to start something like this, but I wouldn’t be able to until getting a PE.

    You’ve piqued my curiosity…can I ask why you say this? I graduated with a BS in Civil Engineering and am working as a structural engineer.

    What would you tell your 18 or 25 year old self?

    GOLD! MINDSET 
    To my 18-year-old self: No one is perfect, including you. But that doesn't mean you shouldn't still strive for perfection. Listen to those that you know love you. Ignore and unfriend those that quite obviously don't. Don't do Structural Engineering. Find a way to earn enough money and create a...

    As soon as I joined this forum, I'll admit it took me a hot minute to figure out how to navigate it. But that "hot minute" was really only about a week. It really is not that difficult to figure out.

    Have you ever had an Amazon package stolen from your front porch? (Generating ideas to fix this problem of porch pirating)

    Holy crap I just realized how long ago OP created this thread lol. Although my son is too young for me to teach him anything (he literally just turned one today) I certainly will pass entrepreneurial knowledge on to him. I agree completely with 7 of those points, and I would say “it depends”...
