    Capital for wholesaling?

    REAL ESTATE 
    I actually discussed this over dinner tonight with a friend who is financially free before age 33.. I have been wholesaling houses for about 3 years now.. with about 75% of it being my full time source of income.. It is a FEAST or FAMINE business, and I would not recommend it to my loved ones...

    IDEA 
    If you consider that most new businesses take a HUGE investment of TIME AND ENERGY when starting.. You should probably choose to work on something you at least somewhat enjoy or are interested in. When i started my search.. I was 17 or so and I was asked, "what are you going to do after high...

    Motivation is not necessary for success.

    MINDSET 
    I love gym motivation and morning motivation to start the day and give you positive emotions to help your first thoughts be positive ones. But when it's hard, it's really up to you to just DECIDE and do the work.. I think a lot of new entrepreneurs start a new business and they're super...

    My mind is confusing me..

    MINDSET 
    Here's a few things that may help. #1: Watch this 4 part video on 1.5 speed, take notes and pause as you go. #2: Reassess/Redesign your vision for your life through goal setting. Why are you doing what you're doing? If you forget why you're doing it.. and you're not progressing anymore, of...

    HEALTH 
    I fill the bath tub with warm water and light several candles.. turn the lights off so there is only flickering candle light. I play classical music, lindsey stirling, dubstep, or robin sharma, depending on how I'm feeling.. and I put my notebook or journal on a clipboard.. And I drink hot green...

    Getting into real estate with no startup capital?

    REAL ESTATE 
    Hey man, hope this gets to the right people. Real estate is my vehicle of choice. I hit my 3 year anniversary in real estate 8 days ago. I've been self employed 60-70% of this time. But sometimes it gets tough. If you have absolutely no savings at all.. I'd say a job is your best option, but...

    Confession: I'm a shiny object chaser giving it 50% throttle. Are you?

    MINDSET RANT 
    Going to share my struggle: I'm a shiny object chaser, as I'm sure many people on here are. It's taken me a couple years to accept that it was a problem. It's caused me to shift gears too early, to never finish.. to always chase the next before the current was finished.. I never went ALl-IN to...

    Howdy, welcome to the forum. Your question was very open-ended and nobody could really give you a good answer without knowing you, your background, your skills, resources, etc. Otherwise we'd just be giving suggestions and "you should this or that.." and most of us don't like to "should" all...

    Go into debt for buying Magic cards, should I do it?

    HOT! MINDSET 
    Anyways... If you're buying something to try and flip and make profit.. I'd say try to at minimum double your profit.. and leave room for error also... Also take into account the demand... are there really that many people out there looking to buy $10k+ worth of magic cards? And are you willing...

    Does it make sense to drop out of college to become a real estate agent?

    REAL ESTATE 
    Ah, you're definitely right. At first it looks easy, and then you realize how much work it takes, how much marketing costs.. and that it's not really "buy houses with no money down"... I know car salesmen who work 6 days per week to make $60k-$70k per year. I have a Realtor friend who made a...
