    Speeding :(

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Wonder how much getting pulled over 20 times wastes your freedom compared to the amount of time you save of your freedom by speeding lol. Would be interesting. Getting pulled over is probably more of a hassle than it is worth, which is why I drive the speed limit.

    Life without Relationships

    PEOPLE 
    I'm starting to wonder how people ever get married. Maybe the current girlfriend isn't exactly the one or something, but still baffled by this. I don't even feel like I can start a business while trying to clear some excess debts (credit cards) and save up some money. How on earth do people...

    Escaping poverty

    I would do whatever free means necessary for schooling. If you make enough at your job to support yourself, then I would think you should be fine. Then, create your fastlane on the side. If I had to do it over and found Fastlane stuff earlier, I probably would have skipped college and just...

    The Top Five Regrets of the Dying

    MINDSET 
    I don't have this Fastlane experience yet, but I would assume losing 5 years of your life working hard on your own business beats 30-40 years you lose of your life in a cube. It seems to me working hard to get into the Fastlane your whole life would be better than just being content with...

    The Best Slowlane Job Possible!

    SLOWLANE 
    I have the same type of job as OP, except I make 1/2-2/3 the salary he does. I only have a busy season a couple of months a year and can usually find some free time, also. The problem is getting the idea. I feel like I am wasting a ton of time sitting at the office when I could be doing what...

    A week in the life of Poker Pro, Snowbank

    HOT! 
    Just going to speak from a hypothetical point, as I have done the poker but not the business world specifically. Making solid money from poker makes you never want to work for anyone else really. I am sitting in my cube typing this. Even grinding 12 hour days, with the right Life balance...

    A week in the life of Poker Pro, Snowbank

    HOT! 
    Played online poker "professionally" myself from 2008-2011 when it all went to squat. There are still sites around, but the games are terrible. By that I mean more of the background behind it all. First, most of the software just plain sucks. It's very difficult to multi-table a ton...

    What are your biggest time wasters and why do you do them?

    MINDSET 
    Day time job is the major one. 6am-4pm is the largest part of my day. Started staying up til at least midnight just so I can feel like I have a longer day. 4-5pm I usually play the dreaded video games, just to relax before the girlfriend gets home. 5-6pm is messed with dinner. 6-midnight is...

    Welcome to 35

    MINDSET 
    Happy Birthday! I am going on 27 and do the same; think about the past and how much time/money I wasted on useless things and how I am getting old quickly. I need to act and figure out my plan for where I want to head. I do think, "Wow, if I live to the expected age of men, my life is...

    Frustrations and Life: Stuck in the Slowlane

    SLOWLANE 
    I here you, man. I am in the same rut. I have a full time job that I have to drive 25 min to, I hate cold weather and in a month it will be here. I hate the cubicle. By the time I get home, I feel "entitled" to do something other than brainstorm and educate myself in some area I am lacking...

    In this thread I get out of debt. $10K to be exact.

    HOT! 
    It's ok, OP...I am in the same boat, although, a little less debt (outside of school loans and a car). I remember being cash broke a few years ago and survived on a credit card for a few months...add in unnecessary expenses and it gets up there pretty quickly. What's sad is I haven't even used...

    Do any of you flip cars for profit ?

    HOT! 
    Pretty impossible to do this all yourself and become Fastlane, like you mentioned. However, flipping cars if you enjoy it and then having free time for other business ideas is a lot better than going to work for 8 hours making way less. Security is a damn huge factor in ever calculation I have...

    Young U.S. Adults Flock to Parents’ Homes Amid Economy

    Yeah, it's just amazing the stuff people don't think about. And to think there isn't a market for teaching people to be smarter with their lives......America just loves being dumb I guess.

    I've Read The Millionaire Fastlane!

    GOLD! HOT! 
    Read the book...pissed me off because I have to go to my job everyday and not at the point of quitting yet :) I know I will struggle with going every day while I conjure up some ideas to get the ball rolling on. Very inspirational, and love the "bluntness." Thanks MJ!

    Thoughts on buying cars

    MINDSET 
    I used to drive the more inexpensive sports cars, and one decently expensive....basically, I have been car broke most of my college years. I just got out of college, landed a mediocre job after, and regret all of the debt I got. I recently sold my 28k car with a couple 1000 negative equity just...

    Selling items locally - need help: how do I add value to compete?

    I really do hate the amount of spammers on Craigslist. That is the most annoying thing. Just go look at the personal ads. It's either gay dudes posting out the wazoo to get laid (have nothing against gay people fwiw), or girls trying to spam you to go to the dating website. Also...

    Cool...who cares how much you make from a business when you can get people to pay $500 a month and all you have to do is show up for some phone calls? 100 ppl a month, 5 calls a day and ur banking 1/2 mill repeating same stuff to everyone. I haven't listened to this yet, but not liking what I am...
