    Mine are starting to clear up a lot for me recently. I'm going to leave out the freedom part, because duh.. Both of my parents who divorced when I was young, have stuffed up massively and I will need to make sure they are ok in the coming years. I want a couple of dogs, so need to own my...

    I want this so bad, but I would F*ck the screens up and smash things up almost instantly with what I do day to day. I'm not allowed to have nice things just yet. I wonder how old of a galaxy S Dex would work well on.

    Did my first attempt at doing a cheapo vinyl wrap on the hood of an old car of mine that's going to be a backup workmobile for staff. Looked like a wrinkly ballsack for quite some time :rofl: still not great, but it was fun to learn something new lol.

    17, profited $60k already, but completely lost in life.

    IDEA 
    Commercial cleaning, but offices only, so yeah, accountants, lawyers, surveyors, auto parts stores, RV sales offices, whatever. Then as you get a name and experience, and have floating staff that can run around and cover others, move into larger office buildings that need daily cleaning. All my...

    17, profited $60k already, but completely lost in life.

    IDEA 
    Plus lawn mowing, gardening, domestic cleaning, garage doors and on and on. I chose office cleaning (no move in move out or builders cleans, just office, around 35 to 45% margin on the smaller accounts) as it was the least labour intensive meaning staff turnover could be less, and it pays well...

    how to handle financial stress from previous business failures

    MINDSET FAILURE 
    Eventually the hatred of the slowlane life will trump any kind of low confidence from business failure. 10k is not too bad. Imagine a slowlaner that loses everything in a divorce at 50. Stay positive! Some great advice I had in this situation was to watch how you talk to yourself. No negativity...

They HATE getting calls and are always booked out lol. They...

    Great book. My parents were big smokers, so... then I was. I quit after reading that book 15 years ago then gave it to my Mum, who then quit. Definitely saved her life.

    A lot of historically left leaning people had similar changes in 2017 and on, and it wasn't due to settling down.

    Google and Facebook only care about the Samsung's of the world spending hundreds of millions or more, and are more than happy to skewer their reputation with us plebs through a good squeezing.
