    How do I make money off my Programming Skills?

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    Your last sentence is always the tricky one, and the key. Find something that solves a problem for someone, and go from there. Have you looked at starting off somewhere like Upwork or similar, either to get a few paying projects and some experience, or for an idea of what problems people are...

    Learning a skill and making fast money

    HOT! MINDSET 
    You get that this is really a forum about entrepreneurship, right? And one of the key "teachings" (if that's the correct word) is about "solving problems"? It does seem that you've got an idea of what you want to do, something "online" but not techy or difficult, but will make you loads of...

    Movie & TV Series Recommendations

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Yes, I very much enjoyed that when it was on here in the UK, and was equally surprised at how much certain words were used on normal broadcast TV.

    Where to sell UK registered company?

    QUESTION 
    One idea would be to sound out your competitors to see if they would like the opportunity to buy your customer base and products. The last company I worked for was sold to a competitor, they originally said it was so that they could expand their product line to double their appeal to the market...

    What does the dealership expect you to do with your time, if there aren't enough walk-in customers for the existing salespeople to deal with? I wonder why they'd take someone on, on that basis. Do they put you with one of the other sales staff to learn from them, or are you just sitting around...

    Graham Stephen tries window cleaning

    MINDSET 
    I was about to figure out the size of the house by measuring some rooms and so on, then I remembered that next door is for sale and their estate agent has already done the work, and it turns out that it's around 1330 square feet, and he washes five or maybe six windows. As I was driving at in...

    I thought mine was cheap at £10 for the house. Probably fewer windows in mine, though, than those in the video.

    What to do?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Capital always helps, but there are plenty of things you can do to build up some funds and it doesn't necessarily have to be "a job" as such. I don't know your situation or location so I can't really give anything other than general platitudes, but there are plenty of "I started doing xyz..."...

    How to come up with an idea for a potential fastlane business.

    You could have a read through this thread: https://www.thefastlaneforum.com/community/threads/how-to-create-a-2k-mo-passive-income-website-in-30-days-or-less.107531/ Ideas are something I struggle with too, but it generally boils down to looking for something you can do to help people. Find...

    My journey into forex

    CRYPTO INVESTING 
    Yes, sorry, that came across as overly negative, if you've done any research at all you'll have found out how many sharks there are in that market, with the fancy cars and apartments and stories of how well they've done. I get a small return from Forex trading, but I don't do it myself - someone...

    My journey into forex

    CRYPTO INVESTING 
    Forex is one of those things that has a stigma to it - I'm sure there are people who make money from it, but I'm also sure that the vast majority do not. It's become linked to people offering to teach you how to trade forex, which tends to be how those people make their money rather than the...

    Setting up a referral arrangement.

    MARKETING 
    True, but the shopkeeper won't necessarily be presuming that you are going to trick them. This bonus is a small add-on for them, it isn't their core business, they have almost nothing to lose (other than their time) by giving it a try. I would think they'll need more convincing that your courses...

    Window cleaning side hustle

    SIDE HUSTLE EXECUTION 
    My house is two-storey, my window cleaner doesn't use a ladder any more, I suspect in case they fall off it. They've got an extendable brush thing that they use to clean the first floor* windows. They don't squeegee them any more, because they can't from the ground. They do, however, have a van...

    Setting up a referral arrangement.

    MARKETING 
    No, the shopkeeper must only have access to the people that they have referred, not to your complete list. The shopkeeper needs to tell you who they referred at the point they refer them, and you confirm that they took a course or they didn't at some point later in time, probably at the end of...

    Setting up a referral arrangement.

    MARKETING 
    I'd say you're going to need to rely on a certain amount of trust and build a reputation for doing what you say you will do. Will the shopkeeper be keeping a list of their customers, then following up with the customer to see if they went on your course and checking to make sure that they've...

    Dreams and no money...

    IDEA MINDSET CHAT 
    I think the point was that you need to look around you and see who you can help, and how you can help them. Rather than just chasing the money, tempting as it is, find something you can do to help people and then see how you can make it pay. What skills do you have? What interests do you have...

    You just won a million dollars: What now?

    QUESTION 
    I think it was footballer George Best who said, when asked what he'd done with his money, "I've spent half of it on fast cars, women and drink, but I've wasted the rest." I'd like to think I'd try to do something, anything with the money. I have a saving mindset, I can't stand to see my totals...
