    Starting first business- a drive thru!

    EXECUTION 
    I'm inclined to agree Pizza. Corners and intersections are a pain and there seems to be a psychology that says just get through the intersection. But a street with good traffic and easy on/off. Now that's a different situation.

    EXECUTION 
    I can kind of understand. But I'm still not sure you'll get a lot out of it. I recall when I was a homebrewer back when the hobby was having a rebirth. T-shirts were things the merchants would throw in the box after I bought a bunch of bottle caps, yeast, or air locks. They offered T's for...

    Welcome to the forum and...damn man you're already well ahead of most folks so keep up the great work! I noticed you mentioned renting an apartment from a friend AND that you're looking for another property. If you find a multi-family property, like a duplex, you can live in one while the...

    Why t-shirts? Why not merch associated with keeping your critters? T-shirts are nice SWAG to throw in when someone orders your critters, but not likely a money maker.

    Starting Out

    INTRO 
    Welcome to the forum Tubs. Lots of great info and helpful folks here. Since you're moving to a new town anyway, I recommend you find a sales job to help you get comfortable with people. Something part time will give you time to also start your fast lane experiences and keep food on the table...

    I know it's tempting. But MJ's books strongly recommend monogamy until you can afford to play.

    Busy is good if it is for the right reasons and it sounds like it was. Anything that leads to bringing in customers is good busy. Thank you for the update and keep it up!

    Welcome to the forum Channing. Tough decision ahead for you. Most of us on the forum have faced similarly challenging decisions, so we don't envy you the angst you're feeling. My advise is going to be biased...I guess everyone's is LOL. I've been a slow laner for many years and only recently...

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

    GOLD! IDEA 
    Interesting idea. My only real hobby is scrapping. I collect old electronics, computers, etc and break them down to recyclable components, or scrap to sell. Many "scrappers" will try to resell items first to get greater value. When I was actively pursuing my hobby, I'd frequently go to...

    How I was able to make $10,000 this month, and I'm just getting started.

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    What's even worse is people bought these things. Who's the bigger crook, the crook or the crook that buys from the crook? Sorry Star Wars fans, couldn't help myself.

    I got an interesting offer. I'd love to get some advice

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    That was a close one. So I guess I should not believe the Nigerian Interior Minister who needs my bank account information to transfer $10mm and will give me 10% as a courtesy fee?

    NOTABLE! 
    Unfortunate how this played out, but I learned a lot during the thread that I've shared with my chef wife as she works to restart her life after defeating cancer. Thanks everyone who tried to help Eric - your efforts were not wasted for my wife.

    A way cool niche. It will be interesting to learn of your success. I urge caution in how you handle selling to various countries. The introduction of non-native species can have devastating effects on the environment: Africanize bees, vermin destroying bird populations, cane toads, the list...

    Welcome to the forum and honor for owning up. Lots of great people and information in this forum. It takes time, but read through the threads - especially GOLD and NOTABLE. It's time well spent. Look for the thread, I've "Read Millionaire Fastlane" and leave a comment. It's not about the...

    How much $$$ would you need to significantly change your lifestyle?

    Here in lies one of my problems - and I honestly mean one of MY problems. I've always had ambition to earn/do more, but I've never had that "thing" or life style motivation out there. I'd be happy being able to live off the passive income from around $5mm. But I'm not into sports cars...
