    Sell Your House in 5 Days - Learn to Barter

    REAL ESTATE 
    That's the way I understood it. It is just another option for securing a property. The items are not meant to substitute for the overall cash price, but rather is a type of down payment that applies toward the loan.

    I'll let MJ and others address content and philosophy when compared to other books, but I do think there are valuable lessons to be learned here. I agree with your premise that money in and of itself is not the measure of success. Given a chance, I think you'll find that the driving principle...

    Sheeky, if your original intent was not to spam, then I apologize. You do understand why we would think so, right? Let's move this conversation forward some. What has your experience been in business as it applies to the fastlane? What do you hope to achieve in the future? Did you really...

    FUNNY 
    The fact that you only saw one warning, doesn't negate the fact that they were posted. As for your defense, "better to work than watch the forum", I think this shows how much you don't know about this forum. Many of the participants here are already extremely successful, and don't need...

    how billionaires have fun

    Sheeky, here is the issue. You signed up for this forum, and then you started blasting short posts everywhere. You would probably have 15 or 20 by now had PhxMJ not deleted some of them. You used tactics very common to spammers which try to use this forum for the sole purpose of marketing...

    Sell Your House in 5 Days - Learn to Barter

    REAL ESTATE 
    Good Post Jackie, Thanks. You listed some real examples of the principle I was trying to convey with the Barter Game. When you use this method, are there any additional legal loop holes you have to jump through? Is a determination of the value of bartered goods required for tax purposes...

    Society Brainwash vs. Fastlane.. part 2

    Better still, order some pizzas and insist that the owner deliver it to your house. Make sure all your toys are outside (Lambo, Boat, etc.). It's amazing how many people get "stuck" in Brick and Mortar/ Restaurant Situations. I understand why it happens. It just seems to happen too often...

    Society Brainwash vs. Fastlane.. part 2

    That's Ok Lamboman. Ten years from now, look up that teacher and send him a Google coffee mug, a Snuggie, and a copy of MJ's book. Include a post it note that reads, " Best of luck with that teaching thing. Sincerely, RETIRED "

    The Davinci Method - Understanding Personalities

    Only 70%, No wonder I'm not a great artist. I can put the crayons up now. I do think the questions are too generalized to be accurate (I agree with the marketing angle). Now here is a question for you. Why is it significant to you if you aren't like Da Vinci? He was a scientist, a...

    Why You Should ONLY Invest in Your Own Backyard

    REAL ESTATE 
    Hey guys, I don't know Jackie or anything about real estate (never even spoke to her). I do wonder though if she thinks herself as "guru" because of how she discovered this forum. From what I know, MJ approached her office for the purpose of contributing to the book. I my mind that would say...

    Not to make light of your youth, but since you don't have those items, could you have one of your parents pay? You pay them or work out the arrangements (provided they don't mind). May make the process easier.

    A new perspective of the Fastlane

    Life is Fast Regardless of How you Choose to Live it. People try to deny me, To restrict, and defy me, but one thing is certain, I am not in their control, For the young defiant spirit, that laughs and just won't hear it, who says life is good, and long, and that I have no...

    Delaying My Business Ventures

    OFF-TOPIC 
    That was a great reinforcement of the fact that you don’t have to do everything by yourself. Too many of us, myself included, tend to take on all the problems instead of delegating. This is caused largely by the fact that we don’t trust others to do things the way we want to (or just don’t’...

    I think you're missing the Fastlane concept. You don't have to invest an overwhelming amount of time in it. For example, take one weekend and have a friend film you performing the basic soccer moves. Explain the rules and the basic techniques and any pointers that you know. Find someone...

    The Barter Game, You In?

    Another round has ended. I thought I would post this link for those who haven't seen it to show how barters can work and the potential of negotiating trades. I was hoping this could be a learning tool of sorts while still entertaining. Thanks to all who have participated. At this point, I'm...
