    What's your job ? What do you do?

    HOT! 
    Underwriter for Metlife. It's really boring. I get to telecommute once I've been here 2+ years and on snow days. If I got to telecommute 3 days a week right now, I might actually consider keeping it awhile. Hate coming into the office with a dress code on 3 of the 5 days a week for no...

    I want to quit my job so i can have more of MY OWN TIME - am i wrong?

    HOT! MINDSET 
    Even sitting at the office having downtime occasionally to do your work on your own projects makes me feel confined and at unease. I'm getting paid, of course, but just the fact that I'm tied to a chair until a certain time when I am done with my other work drives me batshit insane. Guess I...

    Your worth. Your value. Your prices.

    HOT! MINDSET 
    I don't see customers wanting to pay more than they ever have to on a product unless it was in very limited supply, there was a monopoly, etc. Sure, I might see your product being WORTH $500, but if you were selling it to me for $20, I'd take it. I guess you could somehow just throw up a...

    I want to quit my job so i can have more of MY OWN TIME - am i wrong?

    HOT! MINDSET 
    I agree with this. Also, it just seems like a waste outside of maybe the learning aspects and extra dollars to fund your start up by working the 9-5. For instance, outside of paying bills, car pmt, student loans, I have <$500 extra month while working a repetitious job. Why waste the extra 4...

    HOT! MINDSET 
    What's your opinion on dropping a full-time job and maybe doing part-time work to just keep afloat like a lifejacket, just to free up more time/motivation/energy into your own biz? This is a big one I have been considering, as a 9-5 with benefits makes me feel trapped. A side hustle of my own...

    26 Time Management Hacks I Wish I'd Known At 20 from BusinessInsider

    It is the slowlane mentality, and I'm working on changing it. I know what is right to do and what isn't, I just have to do it. Just blows---I have this incessant need to play poker on weekends and build up bankroll so I can possibly ditch the job I dislike and spend days doing things I enjoy...

    26 Time Management Hacks I Wish I'd Known At 20 from BusinessInsider

    I Hate #7. Not only do I not enjoy it, I feel that working my day job gives me the RIGHT to be lazy when I get home because of the mental/emotional drain of energy from the previous 10 hours of work/related activities involved. I do see a point though...when you have a lot of free time you...

    Buying a new car

    HOT! MINDSET 
    Didn't read the whole thread and don't know your work situation or finances, but figured I'd chime in. I've driven sporty cars my whole life (and that is until now at age almost-27). I started with base camaro, went to Trans Am Firehawk, then to 07 Z06 Corvette, 07 CTS-V, and now a practical...

    Haha I guarantee a lot of us wouldn't buy your most favorite thing if you were rich, either. For me, I will love owning one of these because I am interested in exotics. You see rich people driving Hondas because they don't have a passion for cars and just see cars as a way from Point A to...

    Naturally lean; have eaten whatever for 10+ years (only 26) and never gained weight. Maintained 150-155ish lbs. Have lifted off and on, but nothing in a routine. Figured a lot of it was more diet than anything since I've briefly read you want to trim body fat? Diet is pretty blah. I don't...

    Hi! I just red the book and started thinking to drop college.

    Haha, all good. Always enjoy new material to learn. Thanks for the hookup on RSD. As far as the girls are concerned, as long as you're improving in some way, whether it be confidence or what not, it's never a lost cause. Good luck!

    Hi! I just red the book and started thinking to drop college.

    Welcome...you sound a bit like me with the driving fast (I like the exotics/muscle cars) and picking up girls (even though I have a girlfriend lol). It's still motivating and builds confidence to read about the art of picking up. I feel it's kind of time wasted, however, having the girlfriend...

    Best recipe to get a six pack? I'm 5'11 or so and around 155-160, but in corporate world now. Probably getting a little fatter from being dormant. Do cardio to trim down any excess fat and a bunch of different ab exercises other than straight crunches?

    Start-up Luxury and Near Exotic Car Dealership

    I don't know because I don't have experience. Is there a gap because there isn't a need for luxury cars/exotic cars in your area? I live in Kansas City, KS, and 1 mile from my house is the only and largest upper level luxury/somewhat exotic dealership (they don't sell lambos and such because...

    A long time ago? Only been 3 months!!! If that was a long time ago, a year ago is historical lol. What did you end up deciding to do?

    Is going to college a waste of time?

    HOT! 
    College is a huge waste of time if you use it to slack off and party all the time. I didn't party, but had serious, time-consuming relationships that probably werent going anywhere, worked full time at fast food joints, Walmart, etc (hadn't found fastlane stuff yet; found poker, but not really...
