    Apple's Response to the New PC Commercials

    FUNNY 
    I really love the iPhone, but I have found no need to switch over to a Mac yet. Even when I picked out my new laptop for college, I stuck with PC. I'm not one of the people who will argue over the quality of Mac v. PC...because at the end of the day they are both computers that both get the job...

    You're Invited to a Conference Call with Peter Fortunato

    REAL ESTATE 
    I am just heading over to Acura now, and then to the gym. Chances are I will call in. Rep++ for sharing this with the community, I appreciate it. Thank you for posting this Jackie. I will let you all know (for those who don't call) if the call was beneficial. If it is not, I will use the...

    Find that you have a lot of ideas?

    IDEA 
    I keep my laptop next to my bed. I also keep a notebook in my backpack during the school year, because oftentimes I get a great idea while day dreaming in a boring lecture. Two past ventures I started were ideas that came to me while laying in bed at 3:30AM. Happens all the time. I am naturally...

    Started a small company this winter break!

    Awesome to hear that one of my ventures will be talked about in your book MJ! Can't wait to show it to family and friends. :cheers: Great point about applying these strategies for the summer time. The job market has not loosened up at all, and the kids on my campus were talking about the lack...

    Fact

    INVESTING 
    Thing is, I would never put $5,000 into a fund that I have to wait on, when I could be leveraging that $5,000 into a SFH property first. (My last post was not only skeptical with the whole "25" years things, but a little sarcastic. Fix up the property, sell. Leverage the next property (first...

    Fact

    INVESTING 
    So should I just throw together a diversified $5,000 portfolio this summer and let it sit for 25 years without looking at it? What results would this yield? Same as the general S&P's posted above? -Alex

    You can never quit.

    Of course we can't forget the Top-Ramen (you know it's so delicious) eating limo driver :notworthy:! I was caught up in the heat of the post. :fryingpan: There are many great "success stories-from-the-rut" here at the Fastlane. I love reading each and every one. They are the most...

    You can never quit.

    I was watching the Bulls game today when this commercial came on. Thought a few people here might like it. YouTube - Gatorade Tiger Focus Commercial: The Woods of Wisdom (Never Quit) What if Tiger had given up? How would golf be today? I think those questions are self-explanatory (and...

    Great post Russ! Thanks. It's cool to see the game you played applied to real world situations with positive outcomes. I have been thinking about dropping the $100 for the Cashflow board game on eBay, just haven't got around to it yet. I have only heard good things about it from members of...

    Struggling Business Owner from NJ

    You are definitely right with the last statement you made there. You can find a much better venue to sell your products. I know you are worried about costs, but a lot of times you need to spend money, to make money. Just keep your overhead as low as you can to make good profits and maintain...

    REAL ESTATE 
    Glad you guys liked it. I finally closed the game after I made it to the $3,000,000,000 mark yesterday after this post. I felt my empire was large enough. I am now starting over and seeing if I can get the same results staying just as leveraged. I downloaded about 4 other free real estate...

    FREE Flip This House online investment game!

    REAL ESTATE 
    Hey guys, So I found this game last night, and I wanted to share it with the community. I believe it is a great game, and it is a lot of fun. While it lacks the ability to let you counter offer, and a few of the financial analytical aspects of real estate, it is a very good game which I...

    Lessons of Forum Management

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Sounds like FerrariChat to me. They take down anything against any of their sponsors (bad reviews, bad mouthing, etc.) and delete posts without warning. I had heard many people complain about it before I joined, but only once I joined did I fully understand the amount of censorship that goes on...

    MARKETING 
    No everyone, this is not the secret story of MJ's success passed down to me through the generations. Sorry. haha I just wanted to congratulate MJ on all the new members around here recently. I have noticed more "New Guy Here" and "Newbie from (phx, mass, etc)" threads popping up than ever. Not...

    Kids getting lazier

    I'm 19 years old. I have started 3 profitable companies including a non-for profit foundation. (If you count the ones I did when I was a kid, then there are dozens). I have a new company on the way right now which can be scaled to all universities in the country. I am maintaining a 3.75...

    Here from Scahuamburg Area

    Yessir, Harper would be correct! They are actually going through the motions with the state board to become a University right now, and have been for the past few years. No idea what is going on with that situation though. -Alex

    Whats up T-Rav? I was like "Someone from Schaumburg, NO WAY!"....but then it only turned out to be you. :rofl: Glad to see you here. There are a lot of people on the Fastlane who do all different types of marketing. Online, offline, and everything between. You will more than likely learn many...
