    "I can't afford to travel"

    MINDSET RANT 
    I don't know what happened to NomadList. They seemed to halved the cost of living for nearly every location. Probably just trying to make it seem easier for the dreamers. $800 minimum is required in Chiang Mai for a decent lifestyle. (1k+ if you want to party a few times a month)

    Alienation through ambition

    PEOPLE 
    Seriously just keep your mouth shut. Pretend to fit in. When you succeed they probably won't want to be your friend anymore anyway. From 48 Laws of Power: Law 3: Conceal your intentions Law 4: Always say less than necessary

    You shouldn't fear competition. If there is no competition there is no demand. You have a background in SEO, it is the same thought process here. Conduct an analysis and decide whether or not you can rank for your intended keywords. What you are looking for is: - Primarily FBA/Merchant...

    Definitely. As long as you are progressing through taking action, every subsequent reading will reveal something new that you weren't 'ready for' previously.

    EXECUTION 
    The stock market creates wealth through efficiently facilitating the allocation of capital, which in turn leads to increased innovation and productivity (more efficient ways to utilise resources).

    Money and Wealth: Zero Sum Game?

    EXECUTION 
    I like to think of it this way. In the end 'wealth' is zero sum as the planet only has a limited quantity of resources. Wealth really is just based on resources and their transmutation into useable goods. Humans produce wealth through harvesting resources and using them to create 'things'. For...

    Is it possible to become a Fastlane musician?

    HOT! MINDSET 
    I would say keep active with your passion but start thinking more laterally and find a way to combine your skill set and industry knowledge with a vehicle to produce value to a large audience. Can you start an online dj school? DJing info product/ video courae? Is there a piece of...

    Anyone Here Self Learn An Instrument ?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Took piano and theory lessons for 10+ years. Self taught electric bass and acoustic guitar. I recommend you learn some basic music theory. It will make composition much easier and more logical.

    Gym in the morning nutrition

    The 30 grams digestion myth was created by supplement companies to convince people to break up their protein intake. And what is the most convenient way to do that? Protein shakes of course. The standard scoop of protein powder is also surprisingly around 30 grams. Brilliant marketing.

    Chronic Back Pain

    HEALTH 
    20 days is nothing, don't lose motivation. It took me around 6 months of on average 30 minutes a day of rehab to 'fix' my back. 2 years ago I could barely tie my shoelaces, now I can deadlift 215kg. Try some more release work with a lacrosse ball and check out Kelly Starrett like many others...

    First Time Importing from China

    Either would work. I think the easiest way would be contact a freight forwarder such as Shapiro (http://www.shapiro.com/) and discuss with them.

    [AMA] Importing & wholesaling for resale on eBay.

    GOLD! SOURCING 
    Thankyou for the help. I asked to pay up front and she has asked for $100USD for a 5 piece sample (items cost ~$2-3) and shipping. This seems ridiculous to me. I am also in Vietnam so the shipping should be relatively cheap. Should I question why the sample price is high or just forget about...

    Was doing well in the Slowlane, but now I'm Fastlane, $1.1M net worth

    NOTABLE! SLOWLANE 
    If you are serious about building a fastlane business I think it would be a terrible idea to buy an apartment. Have you spoken to your GF about your ambitions? You have really only three options that I can see. 1. Continue with the job, sacrifice your personal and family life and build your...

    Chronic Back Pain

    Im an athlete and have hurt my lower back several times. It is most likely the problem is not your back but somewhere else (probably inactive glutes). What worked for me was releasing my piriformis with a laccrosse ball and glute activation exercises. Basically with a lacrosse ball sit on it...

    Oh and a SAFE (simple agreement for equity) is basically a simplified convertible note without a maturity date. It is also not a loan and therefore will not accrue interest. It is a relatively new method of financing and will probably replace the convertible note (in the startup world).
