    HOT! 
    Screw Scottsdale! Why have all those distractions when you could be concentrating on building your business while holed up in your house in beautiful Minnesota! C'mon - Palm trees are sooo Miami Vice. How about weather forecasts like this: Think you will want to stay inside and work on...

    Newbies... Calling all bad questions!

    "How do I explain what I'm doing to my family and friends?" "But I thought you can't do that?" - correct question is "How can I do that?" (thanks to @zend***phin for curing me of this one) "Why is this so hard?" "Which information products should I buy to get rich?" "Can you send me your...

    Thoughts on Being An Entreployee

    Recently I was promoted in my Slowlane job. I went from running the supply chain (purchasing) department to running the entire plant for an aerospace machining manufacturer. I've never run a plant before. In fact, 12 years ago I was an ex-airline pilot that was unemployed thanks to 9/11. I...

    Avatar Changed... I used to drop these guys out of the back of my C-130, and party with them in Bosnia and Turkey. They are class acts. I was also impressed that they could go out drinking with us until the sun came up and when I was going back to my bunk, they would go out for a run!

    Repairs before closing?

    REAL ESTATE 
    Should you be worried that the house was built in 2008 but already has foundation issues? Is there an underlying problem that will give you the same issues in a couple of years again? A lot of us have put tons of offers on houses out there, but just had a few accepted. Houses are like...

    Need a crash course in RE Investing!

    REAL ESTATE 
    If it is a foreclosure, typically all liens are wiped out by the foreclosure action. But it doesn't hurt to make sure. You can (and absolutely should) buy title insurance at the closing to make cover any unexpected liens that pop up.

    What kind of shape is it in? Get a professional inspection done. Bank owned foreclosures sit vacant for a while typically which means things start falling apart. Call the local police department and see what kind of crime is in the area See what utilities are connected to the property. A...

    Had the call with Jack yesterday. Breathtaking. I can see why he drives a Ferrari and I drive a 2002 Honda Civic.:notworthy: He genuinely wants to help, and what he is doing for this kid and his family is really awe-inspiring. Even if you don't need business advice, have a call with Jack...

    Can the Fastlane Forum Really Be Slowlane..?

    SLOWLANE 
    Couldn't agree more ICK. My wife didn't even want to hear my latest business idea! I find it is better to just work on your business by yourself, along with whatever team you assemble, than tell people about it who are not directly involved. When you start achieving success, all of a sudden...

    This is a great thread. I sure wish I had started out this way. I would be living on an island now enjoying life. I own a bunch of duplexes and triplexes and wrote a book on how to do exactly what is in this thread. It is too big to upload here, but if you go to Amazon, you can buy it for...
