    SLOWLANE INTRO 
    Sometimes coming to the realization of the situation you are in is the biggest step in making changes. Don't beat your self up, learn and move on to bigger and better things, always keep a positive outlook no matter what. IMO, if you don't really plan on being a RE Agent I would focus on self...

    Scaling Donut Business

    I just had a conversation with someone in my city that opened a ice cream store. He said they contracted with a local kitchen to develop recipes and make the ice cream, it was really good quality and tasty too. You might be able to work something out with a local contract kitchen like that to do...

    Scaling Donut Business

    Just my opinion but I don't think people will buy much from someone coming to their door to sell a dozen donuts other than on the weekends. Most families are in a rush to get dressed, get kids off to school etc. Maybe door to door office sales where they may welcome delivered donuts through the...

    Does your "get rich" internet guru only make $28K/yr?

    NOTABLE! MINDSET 
    Every time I read about the scam gurus I feel even more strongly that the best thing you can do is spend time learning and educating yourself and taking action to allow yourself to have a built in crap filter and recognize the garbage from real advice. One example, as much as I love the Bigger...

    What would you do if you had 10k and no business idea yet

    HOT! IDEA 
    First off congratulations and good job having the mindset at 18 to use the money for investing instead of blowing on having fun like 99% of 18 year olds would do! One thing to always keep in mind, money is a tool, it won’t make you successful. Imagine you have a tool box full of the best wood...

    Create Your Own Prototypes For Almost Nothing

    Cool, great tips. I love the idea of 3D printing and want to try it out. Another idea if you are short on cash is look for a co-opt or some club in your area that might have a lot of this equipment setup and you just provide the file or use their equipment to design and make a prototype. My...

    On my way to a million

    REAL ESTATE 
    Great to hear updates! After the last few years of what you have done is there a particular part of RE that you would focus on 100% if you had to chose? Like wholesaling, flipping etc.

    Building a Multi-Million Dollar RE Portfolio with $50k

    Great post. I am also looking forward to seeing more updates and details! Thanks for posting. I don't know how big your eCommerce business is but curious if you have any experience/thoughts on the differences and what you think is the best option for building capital between a RE business such...

    Amazon is Going to Slaughter Your Brand

    HOT! 
    I wouldn't worry too much, Amazon has such a large share of the online retail market they aren't going anywhere as a company, maybe parts of it shift but Amazon will be here for a while.

    I've Read UNSCRIPTED!

    GOLD! HOT! 
    I've read unscripted! Loved the book and love the mindset in both books. The section on F$@k you life was one of the funniest I've read in a book. I play the audio version of that section to several people I know! Don't like your 2% raise, F$@k you I'll make 200% more next year, LOL.

    I've Read The Millionaire Fastlane!

    GOLD! HOT! 
    I read The Millionaire Fast Lane. It was one of the main books I have read that really helped open my eyes in many ways. It helped move me from a slow lane plan to a Fast Lane plan (I used to think the slow lane plan was a fast lane plan :0 ). Loved it and will read Unscripted soon also.

    How I lean startup’d my way to $240k+ on the saturated App Store

    GOLD! 
    Sweet, makes perfect sense to me. I know it can vary but did you get a good feel for how many posts on forums, youtube etc. that you needed to make to get 100 unique a day and 50 emails in a week? Did you use a personal account when doing this or start a new account with your app name or just a...

    How I lean startup’d my way to $240k+ on the saturated App Store

    GOLD! 
    What kind of numbers are you looking for when validating a idea weather its an app or some type of product? I love the idea of using something like Quick MVP to see what interest there is in an idea. When you use a service like this you have a landing page and then you use something like AdWods...

    That's awesome. Thanks for posting your experiences. As someone that is getting started in app development it is very useful to see how others have managed their business. What made you wan to sell vs continuing to make income from the app? Are your plans to continually make and release apps...

    BRO-MARKETING! (Great Copy Selling Crap Products)

    MARKETING 
    Very interesting. So the people that make big claims about their product and a big price to match but do not provide something equally valuable are Bro-Marketers? There are a LOT of Bro-Marketers in Real Estate, there are some good products and people teaching things but a lot of crap too.
