    Getting some Money from MLM but Still Struggling!

    If you are good enough to make money at MLM, and need a day job anyway - go get a real sales job. You'll get paid fantastically for results, unlike MLM or a normal paying 9-5. Or just freelance doing literally anything else. MLM is garbage. That's not just a jaded opinion - it's math. Go...

    Trying to loose weight (not succeeding )

    HEALTH 
    Important: it's not about "cutting down" from your current calorie intake. It's about eating fewer calories than you burn. If you are average height/weight, and currently eating 4,000 calories a day, you will be gaining weight. If you "cut back" to 3,000 calories, you will still be gaining...

    Brewing up a business

    INTRO 
    I was a homebrewer myself for about 4 years (brewed about 200 gallons in my final year). Never opened a brewery but I did win a few medals in the process for the beer I made, which was very rewarding :) I looked very seriously into opening a brewery (also read the dogfishhead book you...

    Books On People Really Screwing Up Where They Had the Opportunity To Win?

    I kind of disagree. The folks who never succeeded can SAY that they could have won big "if...", but that's just purely based on hindsight, which is always 20/20. I could tell you I'd be a millionaire right now if I invested my home's equity into bitcoin 5 years ago. I could tell you why it...

    How do I go about buying a transferrable freelancer profile with great reputation

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    IMHO - don't do this. Many entrepreneurs like the ones that use this forum rely on those reviews and reputation to make decisions about which freelancers we want to work with. We expect to be working with the individual who matches the review. This isn't like selling a business where the end...

    Need ideas for my brand name.

    IDEA 
    If you read my reply it's because I thought your question didn't make sense. How can you reconcile your skill set with your current hang-up?

    Need ideas for my brand name.

    IDEA 
    Most of the things in that list immediately tell me you should EASILY be able to come up with a name for yourself if you were any good at those things. How can you call yourself any of these: - mind coach - nlp ptractitioner - copywriter - entrepreneur - warrior - life coach - pick up artist...

    What is the WORST "value" you ever paid for?

    NOTABLE! EXECUTION 
    No word of a lie, I believe EVERY high school graduate should be handed a copy of "I Will Teach You To Be Rich". The book is PURE gold for that age group (or adults who 'never learned') and fills in a LOT of gaps that formal education conveniently leaves out. I saved literally thousands...

    What is the WORST "value" you ever paid for?

    NOTABLE! EXECUTION 
    Food is never worth the price tag if you look at it like food. If you turn the food into an experience though - it's worth far more. I took my wife to the fanciest place in town for our 5 year anniversary. Cost $500+ for two adults. It consisted of a 12 course meal with wine pairings served...

    Has anyone produced a backpack?

    HOT! SOURCING 
    I would say that if they have their own brand and sell direct to consumer, you shouldn't approach them with your ideas. It would be far better to find a backpack factory that produces backpacks for many different brands, and then discuss customization and exclusivity of your features with them...

    Business Success when there's no Middle Class

    HOT! 
    There will always be producers and consumers. I can't envision a first world society that doesn't have this. There's lot of disagreements about which way society is going, and how income inequality / unemployment will be handled going forward (due to things like automation - which is a...

    What is the WORST "value" you ever paid for?

    NOTABLE! EXECUTION 
    Oh I have another - my GS1 account. It costs me $565 per year in Canada for this "privilege" and all they do is give me official account/product numbers so that anyone can look them up to make sure my barcodes are legit. Things they hilariously don't do: - Generate the numbers for you (they...

    What is the WORST "value" you ever paid for?

    NOTABLE! EXECUTION 
    Almost any children's toy these days. Seriously - I almost started a toy company because of this. The BIGGEST disappointment I have felt with a product I've purchased is children's toys. They break the SECOND you try to use them. Some don't work out of the box. Especially electronic toys. It's...

    I sell an instructional manual to RE investors...and Im giving it away below.

    That makes as much sense as dropping out of the forum because you don't need anyone trying to discuss with you what you've already read in The Millionaire Fastlane. Learning facts and figures from a book is just memorization. Discussion and debate surrounding those facts and figures fosters a...

    Bar Rescue: Elements of Failure

    EXECUTION 
    Man, this guy is popping up everywhere right now. He did a reddit AMA a few days ago, he was on the "School of Greatness" podcast (episode 613, fantastic podcast btw), and he has a book out called "Don't Bullshit Yourself" where he breaks down the common denominators of excuses and failure he's...

    I sell an instructional manual to RE investors...and Im giving it away below.

    Dude - you do you. If you don't want to fork out the $$ for an insider sub, where many of us (myself included) share private or privileged information we don't want to appear on google - then don't. I make no claims for the quality of Ken's product. It could very well be hot garbage. But if...

    I sell an instructional manual to RE investors...and Im giving it away below.

    Probably because it's a product he's selling and doesn't want every Tom, Dick, and Harry to be able to google it and download it from a publicly accessible forum section. That's the great thing about the Insider's section - you can keep important details and items "private enough" as it...

    Is Tony Robbins book MONEY Master the Game worth the read?

    HOT! 
    You have to understand that most (like, the vast majority, even from credible sources) often given advice that they think MOST people could use, and will be easy enough to implement and be 'good enough' for the average hard working citizen. In that sense, many personal finance books are great...
