    Talking to people you don't know.

    PEOPLE 
    Thought I read somewhere that Facebook started charging a buck to msg people who are not on your friends list? Random, but I saw you mentioned doing this on Facebook, so curious on if FB ever implemented this.

    Made a million on paper

    I see you're in Kansas; so am I? Is all this stuff found on the blog about your adventures, or can you share more about the stuff you've done?

    Progress Thread: Starting a Basics Clothing Line

    EXECUTION 
    I am kind of on fence about pricing also. I understand the difference between maybe your shirt and a walmart Hanes shirt. I wear the plain white tees for undershirts that get all nasty and shrink like you said. I also where V-Neck Tees from Express, AE, etc that cost double or more. I hate...

    The Fastlane Credo

    EXECUTION 
    Think having a business partner and not having ownership are kind of different things. Granted, you are sharing with a business partner, but that has to be a hell of a lot better than splitting up even more shares to raise capital and such, which is kind of what I think he means?

    On my way - my first product order

    Vigilante...going along with your post, and don't mean to hijack thread, but are there any amount of margins that might persuade differently? For instance, a product might cost $30-40 to import, but can sell for $200 for sure, probably 300...or is it just way too big of a mess? Also, do you...

    I had an AWESOME experience today.

    OFF-TOPIC 
    You know what you should do? Go back and get that guy's card and check him out when you are ready to purchase. Tell him you'll buy one when you're ready and you'll check with him first to see what kind of deal you can both create. Rare to find people like him that would do that for you. Sick...

    Anyone using or have used life coaching?

    MINDSET 
    More power to you. Investing in yourself is never a bad thing as far as that is concerned. I look forward to more responses as well, because I am curious. Bumpety bump!

    The pursuit of happiness

    EXECUTION 
    I would say I am happy to be alive, happy of all that I have gone through, etc. What I am not happy about is my current situation. Is this a choice? Yes. I can choose to be happy by changing my mindset. So why am I not happy? I don't like my life currently...I am in the rat race, don't have...

    Anyone using or have used life coaching?

    MINDSET 
    Never gotten coaching, but watched Youtube vids. Tony Robbins would be an excellent choice! Also heard of Sam Chauhan that poker players use. Might not be helpful you to at all, but just figured I would share something. Do you need specific coaching to tailor to your needs, or can you learn...

    Exotic cars: Buy outright vs. Finance. What would you do?

    If you're paying cash, how much of your networth do you spend on a vehicle of your dreams? We are talking about 300-500k cards here. I guess we spend 50% of our incomes now on vehicles, so maybe it isn't so bad haha.

    Exotic cars: Buy outright vs. Finance. What would you do?

    I don't have expertise or anything in this area, but I couldn't imagine a 500k outlay for a car that you may/may not keep for awhile to be a good purchase. I'd rather put enough down to stay ahead of depreciation over the years and be able to sell for even/more than loan amount. I bought an 07...

    Having a job and the fastlane

    HOT! EXECUTION 
    Boy, ain't that the truth....now that I think about it, you might still be making "peanuts" when you have more money, but those peanuts in relation to other things in life are massive. What I mean is, you have 1000 bucks, make 1% a year, it is nothing. Have 10,000,000, still make peanuts 1%...

    The Best Way To Spend Your 18 Through Mid 20's

    MINDSET 
    I don't think High school is all that bad...what else are you going to do at that age while everyone is in school? I can see focusing on business, but just thinking about where I was at 14 and all that jazz, I actually enjoyed High School. College is a different story. Would have skipped...

    What Would You Tell The 25-Year Old You?

    MINDSET 
    Don't find that corporate job. I just started in June 2012, and I'm turning 27 in a couple months. My second thing would be, "Read MJ's book sooner!"

    The corporate life: Your horror stories.

    This....I used to be self-employed and played poker back during the Boom...I didn't make nearly as much as other people. But like they say you never realize how good you had it until it's gone. I enjoyed being on my own schedule. Got up later in morning, as I wasn't a morning person; just in...

    All College Taught Me Was How to Pay Off Loans

    Sad to think that you need a degree to have a back up plan, but then, all I hear about is having a huge resume gap and not getting employment anyway. If you tried and failed at your own businesses for 5 years, can you get a job as likely or even more likely as you would have if you didn't go to...

    Sleep just 2 hours a day...Uberman Sleep Cycle

    MINDSET 
    I would find it more productive to just find out the bare minimum of sleep a person needs to function well for the day, then do that. I am one who doesn't like constant interruptions. For instance, after work and being done at 330, I find myself sometimes being unproductive because I know...

    Hell. I am new here.

    Hi there...definitely elaborate on your attempts, and also how hard/how much time you put into these. Would be interesting to know and learn from. Good luck and keep shooting for the top.

    "1 Million Likes" on Facebook starting to annoy you? Me too.

    MARKETING 
    What's the market response to an ebook like that? I read the sample on Amazon, and it's really funny! Just wondered how the market has responded. Haven't had time to hunt around the site, but from what I have skimmed, it looks entertaining. Keep us updated.
