    2018 Fastlane Summit - Confirmed Speaker List

    MEETUPS 
    I like the sound of this but it confuses me slightly because the initial post says tickets are non-refundable. I assume they are non-refundable but if the house resells them we would get reimbursed/they wouldn't be sold twice?

    How Much Should I Charge?

    How much is your time worth? What's your experience level? How long will it take? If it's a 10 hour project and you think you're worth $50/hr, charge $500.00. Is this reasonable given your experience? Or ask what her budget is. Or go on freelancer sites and find a similar-sized project and...

    I'm going to go out on a limb and guess that it was some sort of accident.

    Minimum 3:1. Always borrow max leverage when it's a sure thing. If you aren't on margin, you aren't trading, baby.

    The Cryptocurrency Investing Discussion

    CRYPTO INVESTING 
    That's correct, sort of. You can sell your coins and trade, but you can't withdraw CAD, so you must use another exchange to get real money out. Been this way forever. Coinbase is great if you just want to buy at a fair market price (some exchanges, especially smaller ones like Coinsquare in...

    The Cryptocurrency Investing Discussion

    CRYPTO INVESTING 
    There's a lot of sentiment around BTC being tremendously overvalued right now...then again, BTC is shattering it's records lately like nobody's home. The ETH/BTC ratio is like 0.041 right now which is making a lot of ratio-traders salivate. With DC3 happening there's a lot of ETH fans going long...

    The Cryptocurrency Investing Discussion

    CRYPTO INVESTING 
    How long is so long? It's been what, 3-4 months? Bitcoin had like 2 years of steady decline/stagnation between 2013-2015ish; and it just shattered 7k (!) even though it's a fundamentally useless platform. Crypto is known to move a mile-a-minute sometimes, and those periods create the stories...

    Introduction

    INTRO 
    Once you read the book(s), you'll learn one of my favourite lessons from within them: stop calling yourself an aspiring entrepreneur, and stop saying you aren't an entrepreneur yet. To do so is to treat projects as if they are likely, even bound, to fail. I can't quote the line, but it goes...

    2018 Fastlane Summit - Preliminary Probe for Speakers

    MEETUPS 
    Just a FWIW pointer to those who do plan on renting a car upon arrival and don't do so often. Car rental companies are notorious for jacking up the prices of airport locations. Phoenix is especially guilty. Expect to pay nearly DOUBLE if renting at the airport at the time of this conference (the...

    So you want to move to Scottsdale?

    MEETUPS 
    Just read it. Really enjoyed that story. I also am a big fan of the ultra-challenging treks like that, so that definitely gave me some pause and something to think about it. Definitely seems like a wicked and arduous journey. I think my rationale for wanting to do is really just to have an...

    So you want to move to Scottsdale?

    MEETUPS 
    I did a bit of research, presuming I can get a ticket, and basically have my heart set on two things: the desert botanical gardens place looks ridiculously cool, and I'd kick myself if I didn't rent a car and do the 4(?) hour drive up to south rim to check out the grand canyon. I'm a sucker for...

    Does anyone else dislike the "Startup" community?

    RANT 
    I find that I associate the term "startup" with "likely going to fail." "Oh, I just have a small startup" "I'm investing my money into my little startup" Stop. It's your F*cking business. Act like it. Either own it or dump it.

    A small taste of freedom (what it's like)

    You can pay a property manager to run your Airbnb and still take in more cash after expenses due to the huge margin difference between airbnb/conventional permanent tenants. Permanent tenants pay market value. Tourist temps pay tourist market value (obviously this is dependent on location on the...

    Rate My Book Idea

    IDEA 
    The black one is way better. Sharp and simple. That's what ebook covers need to be. The other two are terrible. They look like product from a 1980's era infomercial.

    A small taste of freedom (what it's like)

    I'm not where you're at, but I agree with this completely. Sounds like you've hit a couple good ones. Glad to hear. Before I sorted out my finances and stopped spending like an idiot, I always carried a balance on credit cards, never had disposable funds, zero savings...all while making an...

    This sounds awesome. If I'm able to get a ticket, I absolutely will. Scottsdale has been on the list for a while and my aeroplan points are begging to be used.

    Risky RE Growth Opportunity

    REAL ESTATE 
    Imo, these are the crucial questions (aside from the actual real-estate oriented ones which you likely have locked down): 1. How BIG is the opportunity? i.e. are you getting a huge discount in price? If you pass on it, is it that big of a deal? 2. How confident are you that you can get...
