    The Big Collapse

    HOT! INVESTING 
    Bitcoin is trustless. It's anonymity tends to be overstated and it's backing is the global user base, businesses that accept it, and the entrepreneurs that are building the bridges into / out of the system and additional layers on top of the protocol. Coinbase for instance, allows any company...

    Using FIVERR to promote eBooks

    PUBLISHING 
    I used a couple of gigs when promoting the free days of my 2nd book. I don't believe it was worth the cost but it's pretty difficult to measure.

    I've looked at in the past for ideas. I think it's a great place to find them especially fi you narrow it down by employees. For instance..a guy selling tape with I believe less than 3 employees is generating millions in rev a year

    I took it, literally, as a challenge. "I challenge you to find one picture that isn't exactly the same as the one here" I'm hoping the award is either a cash prize or he lets me drive his Bugatti. Either way, I'll be booking a flight to Dubai when he responds to the thread :thumbsup:

    Bringing my first Android app to market - The process

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Not much but it is earning more than my app was. It was somewhat of an experiment to see if it would or not. I had gathered some knowledge during the process so I thought I'd may as well monetize that.

    Bringing my first Android app to market - The process

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Thanks. The trial app crossed over 400k installs before I sold it. The installs didn't convert so I'm not saying that number to brag but to give you an idea of how it all went. -I picked an app with a feature set and a name (keyword) that millions of people were already looking for. -I made my...

    I just read the email about it and came here to post this "My most recent book, "Choose Yourself!" sold 53,000 copies since it's release on June 3, hit the Wall Street Journal Bestseller list, was No. 1 on Amazon for all non-fiction books for a few days and is still flirting with No. 1 in its...

    No worries. Hope you're able to make it out next time whenever that may be. We ended up at the Irish Pub across the street as Starbucks was lacking seating and I wanted a beer :D Good time and conversation

    Lets rezone it as a tax-free haven..no - better yet, a new country where entrepreneurs can come from all over the world as long as they bring their own capital or come recommended by someone on a work visa. Lets make an international business zone. I'll kick in money for shelter and...

    A small boost in passive income?

    When I lived in Okinawa it always led the way for drunk drivers so I don't think it was the case there. I never did notice very many accidents though so you're probably right. I miss that. Cars are expensive in Thailand and used ones hold their value really well. Imported cars are ridiculous...

    Maybe another post on how to validate an idea. I need to read more of your blog but I have read the post where you talk about stockpickr and how you ensured it's massive profitability before it was even built. Excellent post by the way and I'd love to read more on the subject. If you've written...

    Agreed. I can see it possibly making sense in the U.S with super low interest rates if you know where you want to live forever but if you enjoy mobility then renting makes sense. I like mobility (neighbors always get old fast) and the numbers in Bangkok don't make purchasing a smart move. The...

    My wife and wife's family think I'm retarded because I like to rent. It's so much cheaper to rent out here, and I like the mobility, so I see no reason to buy(yet, or ever) Owning doesn't make sense to me in most cases.. especially in Thailand where buyers pay a large premium over renters...

    Bringing my first Android app to market - The process

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    No. I don't even know if it would of been approved on iOS. Most people say it's easier on iOS but it all depends on the app imo. If your idea is a flashlight app you don't have the option to release on iOS because it will get rejected. Whereas it would get approved on Android as an example. I...

    Figured I'd give this thread a bump. After about a year of struggling to make the app profitable I decided to sell it. Happy to announce that I ended up making a profitable exit. It was by no means a big win but it's always nice not to lose money :thumbsup: I sold the app through Apptopia...
