    @JAVCCS , I can not even imagine going through what you have been through, the betrayal you must feel, and having to start from scratch. I'm glad you made it here safely, and for someone to rise above such hardships means that you can definitely repeat your prior success. Good luck to you.

    I wouldn't put off a friend. I would pay them first, even though their loan was no interest. They were probably trying to help @JAVCCS out of a tough spot, and that type of friend doesn't deserve to be put on the back burner. Also, @JAVCCS, I think you might consider evaluating your lifestyle...

    pay debts or use the money to invest?

    HOT! 
    The reason I suggested keeping some is because I was thinking since he borrowed money from a friend, he probably doesn't have money for emergencies, like new tires. If he has to borrow for that, the interest would be higher than a fixed interest loan, which might be at a good APR. That said, I...

    I would definitely pay the friend and the IRS. Is the other loan a car loan? I agree with @Samix and keep a little in reserve, even if not a whole $5000, and use it for an emergency fund. I would use the freedom from the other debts to double down on the fixed payment debt, and make sure they...

    You just need to remember the quote in your profile pic - maybe put it on a sticky note on your mirror.

    Thank you for sharing your story. Real estate interests me, too, but I haven't invested in anything yet, so it's great to hear how you did it.

    Hesitant to execute until I feel there's a market - feedback needed

    This suggestion is similar to MJ's thoughts about writing: if you're Fastlane first, then you can write whatever you want, because your income won't depend on selling it. Of course, people make it writing anyway without doing that, but it is a really good point.

    When we were looking at houses, we also wanted a third bathroom. One of my friends said, "Why would you want to clean a third bathroom?"

    Hey, @amp0193 , thanks for the rep! Good things about a smaller house: 1. Less expensive to cool and heat. 2. Lower property taxes. 3. Easier to clean. 3. Extra people don't want to live with us, but if that becomes a problem, then I will learn percussion, or maybe take violin lessons.

    @amp0193 I agree with you about house size. When my kids (2) were entering high school, we almost bought a new house. We were aggressively seeking a 3500 square foot house with a pool so the kids could have room to hang out with their friends. Our current house is 1800 square feet. We didn't get...

    I am not really motivated by money, either. I am definitely doing this for freedom, but it's for freeing myself to make the decisions and not follow someone else's agenda.

    How many Business Failures did you have before success?

    NOTABLE! CHAT 
    These statistics are encouraging. As of today, 49 people have had success versus 72 who are still failing. I am one who is still failing, but I have a lot that I can change to get into the previous category, because I am failing through my own fault, and the cool thing is that I have the power...

    [I had edited this for my own sake where the ellipses are, and it came from a thread on this forum] I write books that move unseen probabilities with the goal of shifting probabilities to induce better outcomes. Yes luck always plays a role whenever probabilities exist. But as an entrepreneur...
