    Candy Crush Brings In $633,000 Per Day

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Damn, these micro-transactions in mobile games seem like they are the next big thing in the entertainment industry. I've often thought about attempting something myself, the only restriction being that I would need to sink down and buy a Mac to develop for that platform. ;) Of course, mobile...

    Building a Forum!

    It depends on what you mean by fastlane. If you mean not trading your time for money, then hell yeah a forum can be a passive income stream you don't visit frequently yet still gain revenue from (once you have a thriving community.) As far as scale goes, I personally do not really see a forum...

    Candy Crush Brings In $633,000 Per Day

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    I've wondered the same thing. I like games but I stay away from anything Facebook-related due to my hatred of the site. From everything I've seen, it's just like Bejeweled, so what makes people want to sink money into it?

    Shit, I heard people talking about how they've spent money on this app but had no idea it was this huge.

    How to Make Money on Your Blog

    MARKETING 
    That's not always true. I don't like to say that you can't make money in any area really. There's always a way to make something fastlane, it's just that some things are more difficult than others. @Windsurfer, I recommend you check out that link and blog. It's exactly the direction you...

    MINDSET 
    Hmmm... where to start. This first half of 2013, I finally started to get my a$$ into gear. Rather than worrying about screwing up, I've just started doing. There's no way other way to describe it than simply great. Now, more recently, in June, there have been some major occurrences, good...

    Third circle theory! Great book!

    Oooh that's been sitting on my Amazon wishlist for a while now. The next time I'm looking for something to read on my Kindle, I'll bite. Thanks for the recommendation.

    Inside the Mind of Noah Kagan from AppSumo

    Pat does an awesome job over at SPI, his interviews are always very high-quality, I've listened to most of them. It's funny how people will keep shelling out money for get-rich-feel-good bullshit when podcasts and content like this are 100% free.

    What does your days look like?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Part of the reason I like this forum so much is that stupid posts, the kind that would annoy and frustrate me on similar forums, tend to get filtered out. Sometimes there are exceptions though. What a loser I must be because I'm working a slowlane job I hate, where I am trading my time for...

    selling counterfeit goods fast lane?

    EXECUTION 
    Wouldn't that still be illegal though? I've looked into this after seeing all of the fake Nike sneakers on alibaba, and basically you can't put the name "Nike" in anything. I'm not sure what the legal ramifications would be for putting 'look-alike nikes' in your ebay description, but chances...

    selling counterfeit goods fast lane?

    EXECUTION 
    In the book MJ specifically says that, in addition to filling a need in the marketplace, your business should overwhelm people with how good the service is. It's hard to "wow" people if you're a lying shitbag.

    48% of Americans Want to Be Entrepreneurs

    OFF-TOPIC 
    That is a very believable statistic. The problem is that the majority of those people don't understand what being an entrepreneur is. They think that it means you are your own boss and work your own hours. Which, to be fair, is true. But they don't realize that while being an entrepreneur...

    Sports car/Exotics rentals

    PEOPLE 
    There's already a website that allows people to do this. They have everything from your Civics to your 911s. https://relayrides.com/ Honestly though I would never want to do this with my car, especially if it was a high-end vehicle. Because inevitably you're going to get some high school kid...

    Discovering a Need

    EXECUTION 
    There's a bunch of posts from MJ that pretty much answer this question. I don't remember exactly how he says it but essentially the message is- think smaller. You don't need to make the next iPhone, just improve what's already there. I don't know about you, but my dishwasher sucks. I end up...

    I'm starting a similar website like fmylife and textsfromlastnight,the plan

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    You said 2009 was the peak for them- a lot has changed since then. There are waaay smartphones out there today than 2009, yet less people are driving traffic to these sites... that looks like a dying market. Plus, the people still visiting these websites have been doing so for years, what are...

    CNNMoney: Young Americans are ditching credit cards

    To be fair, buying something with a credit card doesn't mean you can't afford it. I use my credit card for gas, and it slowly racks up rewards points for me paying my bills on time. I earn cash back and $25 gift cards by doing the same thing that you would do with a debit card. The problem is...

    I'm not qualified to be a business consultant, but for what it's worth, here's what I think: 1. If everybody was reselling things on eBay, it wouldn't be as easy as it is for me to make money doing what I'm doing. eBay certainly isn't original or unique, but it's not so saturated that there is...

    I went skiing for the first time this winter. My girlfriend at the time taught at the local resort and said she'd teach me. I've been watching the Olympics my whole life. I understand physics. I read articles and tips for beginners. And I still went home that day really, really sore. You...

    MJ DeMarco Interview at Eventual Millionaire

    EXECUTION 
    Saved it for listening to tomorrow... podcasts and interviews like this are what make my slowlane job more bearable. In addition to this, fellow fastlaners may also be interested in Pat Flynn's Smart Passive Income podcast, one of my favorite things to listen to at work (episode 18 is...
