    Well... I'm officially a Millionaire

    GOLD! 
    @GrumpyCat's next endeavour - take all of the posts from this forums about what he did, format them into an ebook, sell them, and make another million. ;) I said congratulations before, but the more I think about what you did, the more impressed I am.

    Need you advice and opinion!

    This is not the appropriate place for idea extraction. Find a group of obd enthusiasts and ask them what they want.

    Can't sleep, too many ideas!?!??!

    IDEA MINDSET RANT 
    This has to do with what your brain does when it's sleeping. Namely, it's flushing out neurotoxins and processing any information. The best way to combat this is to get aerobic exercise and have a nightly routine. I personally try to meditate for 10 minutes and then read a fiction book for 20. I...

    App Game Dev Advice From Crossy Road Dev

    EXECUTION 
    Well, he admits they made a beautiful game no one wanted to play. Steam's Greenlight feature is a great way to validate your game before you invest too much into building it.

    My Execution Plan

    EXECUTION 
    On the principle that the "fortune is in the follow-up", I sent out a second email to the owners who didn't respond back to the first email. I also spent about 20 minutes researching wireframing software before deciding on Justinmind. Off to make some wireframes and send them off to the original...

    The Education Monopoly... W.T.F?!!

    HOT! 
    For your first point, that's well known and well studied, and it's why the agile methodology was created. Humans being humans, however, can't seem to think it's that simple, and thus add unneeded complexity. For your second point, that is NOT a fastlane idea. Upgrading legacy systems is a major...

    52 books in 52 weeks. Writing them.

    EXECUTION 
    So, to break this down, you've got 5 niches, and you've got ideas for books. Rather than writing a series of books, why not make choose a 2 niches, and make some sites? Do some rearch with Google's keyword planner, figure out what the best keywords for those niches. Then build a site for each...

    Was Ready to Quit With No Plans!!

    INTRO 
    The best time to plant a tree is 10 years ago and right now. Also, don't quit. One the best times to start your own company is when someone else is paying the bills. And damn, you were handed an idea on a silver platter in your intro thead.

    The Education Monopoly... W.T.F?!!

    HOT! 
    This honestly was my experience with college. I have a master's in computer science. Despite the general sentiment against formal education that is present in almost every entrepreneur community, I would get it again in a heartbeat.

    Ethics and The Cult Of Personality

    MINDSET 
    Despite all this, they are making 5 figures a month and learning how to market themselves. My personal example of this is Iggy Azalea. People on YouTube will comment on her videos about how poor of a performer she is. They don't seem to appreciate that they are commenting on her videos, and not...

    The answer A little of this, more that our society is still using decisions made in the Industrial Revolution and the post-WWII era. A more accurate answer is alot more detailed than that.

    I can understand that viewpoint, I just (respectfully) disagree with it. Before cooking the steak, it's helpful to have an idea of what meal you want to serve.

    The ART OF WAR For Startups

    To @Mattie's point, did you do this by disparaging your competition, or just doing a vastly better job? If you can identify a situation in which a company has grown complacent with an opportunity and you can grab it from them, then I'd agree with the notion of grabbing a crown from a corpse. But...

    This would be immensely helpful. Reading someone else's journey is helpful in understanding what mistakes could be avoided and how things could be done better. Personally, I can usually find one or two pieces of actionable advice in these kinds of stories.

    Think of GrumpyCat as a drill sergeant. Since you're here, you want to join the Fastlane, right? A lot of people do, but few take action. His comments are aimed at that, take action. In your case, outlines are good, designing covers are good, websites are good. I consider that taking action and...

    My Execution Plan

    EXECUTION 
    Yesterday, a bit more iOS learning. Tonight, follow up with the people who didn't respond, a bit of brief research into wireframing tools, then working on a wireframe. Also doing some research on lead gen and followup for small businesses like this (not a service business per say).

    It depends on the context. Companies like Blizzard aren't going to hire contractors from Asia to build whatever they've got cooking up for Blizzcon. Most large US corporations realized outsourcing to the lowest bidder realized that a race to the bottom results in a shitty product that costs...
