    Hello, I don't want to be a millionaire

    INTRO 
    You've expressed your goals very clearly. I agree that you're a bit of an outlier for this forum. So, use the advice to get as rich as you enjoy, then turn off the machine and enjoy your cocoa as you look out at the sunset!

    Interesting Article: 23 Niche Websites

    Great article! Interesting to see that two of the examples are selling to people who want to be broke - the trailer and tiny house residents - yet there seems to be a business there! I agree this would be a very interesting thread if others would join in.

    My failed poor executions

    EXECUTION 
    Got it and replied there, thanks. If you've not yet made $4k in a month, I think you'd have a hard time doing the $20 million deal. I don't say it's impossible. But it does make sense for you personally, as you said, to want to walk before you run. Especially as you are still trying to sort...

    Hello, I don't want to be a millionaire

    INTRO 
    If you could make more than $4k a month for the same amount of work, would you want to do so? Or is there some belief that it would be inappropriate for you to make more money? Or that it would be way too difficult to make more money? If you could make the same amount of money working less...

    Online Advertising not as easy as it used to be?

    This looks like the kind of quiz that could offer to automatically post people's results to their social media account: "Ha ha, I'm 67% accurate at recognizing Fake Trump Tweets, click here to take the challenge yourself!"

    The Majority Of Workers Will Freelance By 2027

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    I guess it depends how this is defined. A larger definition would be, finding enough work so that your income is predictable. For one person, this might be one giant project every few years. For another person, it could be a dozen little paid tasks every week. That's just any kind of...

    Advice: Has Anyone Groomed Themselves to Enter The American Elite?

    HOT! MINDSET 
    "To dwell on formal trivialities, the author holds, is like “measuring the letters of the sign-boards by the roadside instead of profiting by the directions they offer.” She would have us know also that “it is not the people who make small technical mistakes or even blunders, who are barred from...

    My failed poor executions

    EXECUTION 
    Is there a previous thread where you explain your overall goals? I feel I came into the middle of a conversation, even though I see I'm responding to post #1 in the thread. It's a bit like watching foosball, as the ball zooms back and forth. There's some stuff about business finance (where...

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    In the infographic, the top two challenges are "income predictability" and "finding work." These are really the very same issue: ability to market and sell ourselves and our work. The third issue is benefits. If you have enough stable income, buying your own benefits is feasible. So that's...

    Unemployed Pharmacist

    INTRO 
    Hi Jovun, welcome to the forum! I'm not surprised that Wal-mart turned out to be a bad employer. But I am surprised that there weren't other pharmacy jobs right at hand. Many years ago I talked a lot with a pharmacist about her career. She was constantly getting recruited by all the major...

    Do you think the planner niche is already oversaturated?

    I think the current market is in some ways similar to the market for new diets. David Allen says that the important thing is the self-discipline to regularly track your goals, projects, tasks in a systematic way. It doesn't matter much if you are diligent with paper and pen, or with a custom...

    Do you think the planner niche is already oversaturated?

    I'm not sure, I know some folks who will buy anything cutesy if there's a cutesy version available! The only reason they don't have cute pink Hello Kitty tires on their car, is that nobody's selling them.

    I had no idea there was a Youtube channel all about planners. Thanks for the link.

    Do you think the planner niche is already oversaturated?

    When I worked at a bank a few years ago, I was sent to a Franklin Covey workshop brought in-house. I liked it. Since then I've studied most of the major planners, both paper and software. I've long had an idea for a web site + mobile app that would offer some new features in this area...

    mobile app vs web app, question

    HOT! SAAS / APPS 
    If you only have two platforms, a cross-platform library might be more trouble than it's worth. You could write your own code to make the best available call on each platform. I don't think we're going to see a third dominant mobile OS any time soon, after the failures of Blackberry, Windows...

    mobile app vs web app, question

    HOT! SAAS / APPS 
    I got his concern as that depending on the phone's hardware, image processing and file concatenation could be pretty slow. If the image processing library runs in the cloud, it can be put on powerful hardware and scaled up to meet demand.

    mobile app vs web app, question

    HOT! SAAS / APPS 
    I'm only commenting on the technology part, leaving out speculation on whether there's a viable business model here. I would make the service a website. From any browser, using a file picker, the user uploads their images to use. You process them in the cloud, using as many servers as it...
