    Grocery Express - "Click and Collect"

    American companies could have easily implemented this before France and other European countries but they didn't and likely won't anytime soon for the reasons that I listed above; namely that they would lose money on impulse buys if they did do it. American companies have, generally speaking...

    Grocery Express - "Click and Collect"

    Doing suggestions like Amazon wouldn't really work since the way Amazon does it is buy showing you similar titles or other works by the same author so you'd be more likely to purchase another book on impulse. Grocery shopping doesn't necessarily work that way though. Just because I want to...

    Like PatrickP said, this guy did you a huge favor. If he gave you a large raise and treated you nicely, you might want to continue working for him out of a sense of appreciation and loyalty. But, the way things turned out should motivate you even more to start your own business; turn that...

    Grocery Express - "Click and Collect"

    The major problem with your idea and the reason why grocery stores don't currently implement a system like the one that you're proposing is that they want customers to walk through every aisle and spend lots of time in the store. If all of their customers only purchased what they initially came...

    How Limos.com Became a Multimillion-Dollar Business

    Seeing how they treated MJ in this article by not even mentioning him and how he built Limos.com into a multi-million dollar business makes me wonder if there are other founders who get the shaft in the same way. How many other people who built a company, then either sold it or were replaced as...

    Video - Guy crashes a lamborghini

    Looks like a new lambo owner. Can anyone who has driven a lamborghini tell us what he might have done wrong to cause the car to spin out of control like that? Obviously, MJ owns a lambo so he'd be the first to ask. TODAY Video Player

    Another "Friend" Down The Drain. Jealousy or Resentment?

    NOTABLE! PEOPLE 
    I think he's right. At a subconscious level, we all want to feel needed. It's why we men like it when women rely on us to help them fix things or to do things that we think a man should do for a woman. We like knowing that someone depends on us. Similarly, deep down, parents like it when...

    Another "Friend" Down The Drain. Jealousy or Resentment?

    NOTABLE! PEOPLE 
    Felix Dennis points out in his book that family members and friends typically don't want you to be successful in your fastlane goals. The reason for family members is that they don't want you to become to the most successful and wealthy member of the family; this is especially true for parents...

    A few thousand to invest. Ideas?

    HOT! IDEA INVESTING 
    That's good. Send me a PM when you arrive in San Diego and we'll arrange a meeting. Like you said, if nothing else it will at least give you someone else to talk to and help you stay motivated towards your own fastlane goals rather than being surrounded by a sea of slowlaners.

    A few thousand to invest. Ideas?

    HOT! IDEA INVESTING 
    True. People want something more when they can't have it. But, I wasn't purposefully trying to play hard to get. My idea is literally the best one I've ever come up with and I think it's going to be huge. The only way I'd trust an investor is if they came here to San Diego and we had a...

    A few thousand to invest. Ideas?

    HOT! IDEA INVESTING 
    I'd appreciate a few thousand invested in my business but the concept is too good to share on a forum. I'd have to know a person in real life in order to trust them to be an investor.

    Billionaire reinforcing MJ's unconventional advice

    EXECUTION 
    Exactly! Elon Musk, who is a serial entrepreneur(the co-founder of Paypal, founder of Tesla Motors, founder of SpaceX, and founder of Solar City), said that it was important for him to succeed with an internet company so that he could then have enough money to follow his true passion which is...

    Billionaire reinforcing MJ's unconventional advice

    EXECUTION 
    Forbes cannot accurately judge the net worth of individuals that don't have most of their assets in public companies. For instance, you'll be able to tell how much Mark Zuckerberg is worth once Facebook goes public because you'll know the market cap of the company and how much percentage of it...

    Just a curiosity question. Fastlane Billionaire?

    EXECUTION 
    Yes, and the earlier you take your hands off, the less money you make in my opinion. No employee will be as passionate about the business as it's founder(s), so if you hand over the reigns to someone else, the company won't make as much money in my opinion. Bill Gates said that for the first...

    Billionaire reinforcing MJ's unconventional advice

    EXECUTION 
    There's a reason why Donald Trump is a failed businessman. He went bankrupt and currently lies about being a billionaire. He basically makes deals off his name; so companies approach him to use the Trump name on their buildings and he gets a small payment for it, but he acts like he's the one...

    Focusing on the money vs. the idea

    HOT! IDEA 
    Exactly! And, when you own your own business you can see when things start to go wrong before anyone else which enables you to plan ahead. If you're an employee and the company that you work for is having financial issues, you won't know about it until they start firing people, which is a much...

    Finding a Quality Investor

    If you really believe in the idea then you will work hard and earn some money yourself to pay for the development of the app. Or better yet, why not study hard for 6 months to a year and learn how to program the app yourself for free. You're taking the lazy approach; you don't want to work...
