    Hurricane Irma

    OFF-TOPIC 
    I moved to Tampa 3 months ago..... Me and my buddy are choosing to stick it out. It's going to be bad but we think its been over-hyped because of Harvey in Houston. But I'm just a Midwestern boy who has never seen a hurricane before so what do I know. It's like an apocalypse down here.. all...

    The Price of Happiness

    MINDSET 
    Ok. I see what you're saying. You should be 100% happy because you know each day you are striving for your dreams and improving. Even if your life is shit you should be happy that you are working hard/have the opportunity to improve it. aka enjoy the process?

    The Price of Happiness

    MINDSET 
    But if you are 100% happy then why go through the hardships of becoming a millionaire? Don't you need a bit of unhappiness to push you towards your goals? Ex: The FTE.

    What "The Founder" can teach all of us

    HOT! MINDSET 
    The main thing I learned was how important it is to own the real estate. Kroc basically owned McDonalds and could do whatever he wanted because he owned all of the land underneath almost every one, leaving the brothers with one option, sell Kroc's business to Kroc. I had never thought about...

    That is equivalent to $8 million after taxes for each McDonald brother if you adjust for inflation.

    No I'm just a winner...

    HOT! MINDSET 
    You can look at this thread as a positive growing experience or a negative insult. Up to you. Ex. When someone calls you fat you can look at it as a negative insult from a bully. Or you can look at it as positive criticism that will help you grow as a person. Would you rather have a friend...

    No I'm just a winner...

    HOT! MINDSET 
    I thought you were going to say something like, "Even if I lose I am still a winner because I helped out the community by donating and I'm still going to be successful in my life." But no.. You said, "I believe I will win at gambling, and then I do! why? BECAUSE IMA WINNER!!" #landfill And...

    Fastlane or Unscripted? Which first?

    HOT! 
    I vote TMF first. It changed the way I look at life. It was the missing piece to the puzzle that I was unable to solve myself. It was the truth that I was looking for that nobody had ever explained to me. I felt something was wrong subconsciously but couldn't put my finger on it. After...

    Have Smartphones Destroyed Humanity?

    HOT! 
    I think the issue isn't whether or not people talked to each other while traveling/waiting/etc before smart phones were around. The issue is that people are replacing real social interaction with fake internet interaction. Reading a newspaper/magazine on a train without talking to others is...

    LateToTheGame because I am late to this game!

    INTRO 
    Easy. Keep your job and start a business on the side. If the business takes off, and you are making about the same amount of money, quit your job. If it fails you still have a job. A lot of people on this forum do that.

    Tonight I Am Going to Die...

    EXECUTION 
    For some people it is harder than others. The beauty of IF is you can do it however you want. If you struggle with the 16:8 try a 12:12 once that becomes easy go to a 13:11 and when that gets easy repeat until you get to a 16:8 or 20:4 or whatever you want for your life. IF is a great tool...

    Need help on how to create my idea

    IDEA 
    Godaddy does all of those things you listed, (except the music thing?). So before you start this you should look into them, since they are one of your biggest competitors. If you can say to yourself, "I could do it better!" Then do it. If you don't think you can beat them then don't compete...

    The End of all Sidewalk/Slowlane Bashing

    SLOWLANE 
    I do this type of bashing all of the time. I understand I'm not any better than them. I don't do it to feel superior to normal people. I do it to remind myself of what I don't want to end up like. I don't want to be a slowlaner or a sidewalker so I bash them because if I end up like them...

    My Deep Crippling Fear

    This thread was from awhile ago... A lot has changed since then. I am now moved out on my own with a friend. We are in the infant stage of starting a low barrier to entry business together. We chose this business because we have no money and after looking at all of the competition we honestly...

    Should I buy a 20 year old appliance repair business?

    HOT! 
    Sounds risky with little upside in my opinion. Also if he is retiring and wanting to get out of the business doesn't that give you leverage to low-ball him? Who cares what "it's worth" tell him you can do 50k and he'll have to take it. Unless others are offering him more (doubt, since he...
