    What would you do with a windfall?

    MINDSET 
    This is perfect. It's kind of like that scene in office space. I'd do...nothing. I'd relax. I'd breathe a little. I'd have fun with my kids and show my wife a good time. But I wouldn't change anything. I'd learn finances to be sure I don't do anything stupid with it and I'd learn to invest...

    VeChain Thor (VET) Cryptocurrency Thread

    CRYPTO INVESTING 
    Hey guys. Complete crypto newbie. Reading through this article now to get up to speed. WTF is The Blockchain? – Hacker Noon I've been hearing a lot about crypto and want to get some skin in the game. I'm not really interested in becoming an expert, but after reading through this thread I'd...

    Overtime isn't worth the Lost Time

    EXECUTION 
    Working overtime is a badge of honor in my field. "I worked 60 hours this week!" Who cares? That's 20 more hours of your time you're giving your time to someone else for just a few extra dollars. Good for you to come to this realization so early. Now just dive in head first. There are enough...

    A MAJOR problem in Social Media

    MARKETING SOCIAL MEDIA RANT 
    Yeah, I don't think this is the way you should start/build your business. It's just a quick breakdown of the numbers to show people it's possible. The content is good, but if you are just using it for a quick motivational boost or to action fake, you obviously aren't going to get anywhere.

    A MAJOR problem in Social Media

    MARKETING SOCIAL MEDIA RANT 
    But it is that easy. MJ even says something similar to this in TMF. Most things on social media are a complete waste of time. But this is true. It just lays out the numbers. It's up to us to find a need and execute to make those numbers a reality.

    100 Unsexy Business Ideas: Name as many as you can!

    GOLD! IDEA 
    Racism is a thing, sure. BUT, the truly successful people don't give a shit what color they are. Neither does the market. If there's a need and you fill it, you can be black, white, brown, yellow, or purple. It doesn't matter, you'll still make money. I'm not sure it's the best use of time...

    "Influencer" Marketing

    MARKETING 
    I tried the same approach with one of my products. Wanted to give them a piece of every sale they got me. No one was interested, everyone wanted money up front right away.

    Scaling Donut Business

    I think this is a great idea. Hit as many businesses early in the morning as you can. I think a lot of offices would love a dozen donuts first thing in the morning. Gives them another reason to put off work and hang out in the break room.

    The "Astonishing Secrets" Thread

    GOLD! MINDSET 
    I just found this thread and I was immediately intrigued by who Zen was. Now I'm going to waste all day trying to figure out what happened.

    Efficiency by The Wall Street Playboys

    Typically a red flag goes up when a person/business has "playboy" in their name, but Efficiency by The Wall Street Playboys was recommended alongside TMF. Has anyone in here read it? I've done a little research, and it seems to have pretty positive reviews.

    I can vouch for this. I live in a neighborhood full of those idiots. Most of them only use their golf cart to drive to the mailbox.

    So I turned 34.

    INTRO 
    Welcome to the forums. This is my biggest issue. Most of the time I'm my own worse enemy. It's a daily struggle, but I'm starting to realize I'd rather battle self-doubt than deal with regret later on. Good luck!

    I love this. This is just what I needed. Like everyone else, I've been chasing the next big tech/online trend and trying to capitalize while the iron is hot (see my 3D printing thread). I also have a year-long Amazon FBA progress thread that can almost be deemed a failure. I've been all over...

    Have you ever been fired? Share your story

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Been fired from one job. Every other job I've been a model employee for whatever that's worth. Worked front desk at a hotel. Long story short, my manager didn't like a couple of the employees there. Pulled me into her office on my first day and told me that. Told me not to get "mixed up"...

    3D Printing as a business...does it make CENTS?

    HOT! 
    Thanks for your feedback. I actually have ideas for both. I have an existing store that I could print 3D products for, and I have an idea for a novelty POD service. After reading what @SanMateo said though, I'm thinking I should figure out how to sell the pick axe.

    3D Printing as a business...does it make CENTS?

    HOT! 
    You're absolutely right. There are a couple local places I can use to print for me until or if I find a business that sticks. I can have a website up for one of my ideas in the next couple of days to start validating that one.
