    Rich Dad's latest scam?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Exactly - I was so P1**#% when I attended his seminar and figured this out. And yes, they pushed increasing our credit limit and buying some informative CD's and …. Fortunately, the light bulb went off in my head before I got myself in too deep.

    Wanna play a brainstorming game?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Maybe this could go in the dirty job thread. Create a cleaning biz or add dish service to an existing maid service. OR...create a daily/every other day basic dish swap out service. The dishes and silver wear are contained in leak proof containers. When you're done you put them outside. Some...

    Welcome to the forum Guide. Lots of great information and sharing here. Highly recommend you spend time reading the GOLD and NOTABLE posts. There's just so much valuable knowledge here. I'm assuming CS = Computer Science? Just wanted to be sure. Also assuming you've read one of the...

    I really want to comment...BUT since I've read the book a couple times I will not. But I am following. Thank you for starting this thread.

    Popeyes Sandwich: Amazing Product, Marketing, or a Bit of Both?

    MARKETING 
    Brilliant marketing. Nothing against their sandwiches, I've enjoyed them for years. But this hype is fantastic - other than it's a pain to get lunch there now. Guess I'll eat somewhere else for a while until all this settles down.

    Rich Dad's latest scam?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    I don't mean to sound as if I'm talking out of both sides of my mouth, but I enjoyed the game as well and agree it serves a purpose. For instance, playing it a few times drives home that being a doctor isn't any better than being a plumber when it comes to being wealthy. I also like one of the...

    Rich Dad's latest scam?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    You're going to love this...At the height of my Kool-Aid drinking, I would have friends over to play the game! It was like poker night.

    Inspiration Techniques

    MINDSET 
    Kyler - there in lies part of our challenge...there is no plan, no blue print. I've grown up as what I describe as success bi-polar. I want a well documented process and set of rules. But I can't stand such rules and ALWAYS find ways to success outside of them. Even when I'm the one making...

    Rich Dad's latest scam?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    I've been seeing adds for "Rich Dad's Boring Trading Method" in my news feed. Out of curiosity I clicked on one and was taken to an "advertorial" (what the hell?). In it Robert Kiyosaki claims that he wants to help you get rich investing - using his boring method. All you need to do is attend...

    Point of no return

    MINDSET 
    Welcome to the forum Ilse! Your comments suggest you've read either TMF or UNSCRIPTED - maybe both. So you know the answer. The question becomes, will the meeting with the boss be your FTE? Remember, a true FTE means fear no longer gets in the way of your decision to move on. As for...

    INTRO 
    Welcome Btechpc! WOW, IT to drug lab...I mean vape lab :)…now that's entrepreneurship. Just joking around, sorry. I don't know much about the equipment needed to make vape products but it sounds like you've made a substantial investment. Can you combine your IT skills and lab experience and...

    Should I drop out of college to pursue my dreams?

    MINDSET 
    Overall, I agree with his comments. But his comment that if someone else is paying for it, go for it, gives me concern. That just seems like a reckless waste of other people's money and puts you in debt to them. It's great if the stars align and your parents can pay for the education you...

    Formal Education is Overrated!(or not?)

    MINDSET RANT 
    I hate to sound rude and don't usually come off so negative, but this just doesn't make sense to me. I agree that formal education is not overrated. But with serious caveats such as, you'd better have a damned good idea what you want to study and why. My dreams growing up required such an...

    I’m 18 years old and I am homeless

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Welcome to the forum Aurelius. I agree with @GoodluckChuck - make amends with mom, BUT be honest with her and yourself. This is a journey and "get rich quick" is a lie. You can get rich but you need to learn some things, find needs to fill, develop something you can offer the world. When you...

    Got a New Job - and why its a fastlane move

    Congrats on your success thus far JP. Your plan sounds spot on. I have no doubt there will come a time when you will either outright own an electroplating biz or be primary share holder in a related partnership. And you won't be an empty suit, but THE guy that knows the biz inside out and...
