    If your best big ideas for the summer involve patents, learn about patents at that time. You might find a great way to make money with inventions, that doesn't require you to personally become a patent expert. For example maybe you could better market something already patented.

    I think if you stick with MJ's books, Blue Ocean, and Lean Startup, you'll easily have several months of reading that will let you fill a notebook with good ideas. I know there's a huge bias towards immediate action on this forum, but I suggest you give yourself at least a month to narrow down...

    I didn't find it right away myself. In the top right where it says Inbox, click for a menu labeled Conversations. At the bottom is a link for Start A New Conversation. Type in the other person's user name until you can click on it, leave the comma in place, then put in your heading and body...

    I HATE Noisy Apartments

    HOT! REAL ESTATE 
    For the price of a bunch of cheap little bad apartments in a cheap building in a bad neighborhood, one could get one big great apartment in a well-located great complex.

    SLOWLANE INTRO 
    Great intro Drew! I also have a corporate software background and am just starting to explore my own path to the Fastlane. There are a lot of very good Web and software discussions on the forum. Looking forward to our learning more about the Fastlane together!

    Hello Fastlaners! I'm David nice to meet you.

    I cocked-up despite reading TMF 3 times! Any advice?

    HOT! 
    I totally agree with StompingAcorns. I love to see the colorful patterns, beautiful fabrics and elegant traditions of Indian clothes and culture, although it's usually spelled Sari in the U.S. The idea of East meets West clothing from London and India sounds like it could be a real winner! I...

    I've been a loser now I MUST find a solution! Any advice?

    Can you switch to a business degree, or have your existing technical classes count towards a double major? You could take Advanced Algorithms, but if Intermediate Algorithms makes you dizzy and lost, why keep climbing the wrong ladder for you?

    Embarrassing posts on various forums using real name.

    @Galaxy16, is your friend in the EU? Has he watched the entertaining and informative clip from John Oliver that introduces the right to be forgotten? Looked up the relevant laws on taking down info? Checked if his original login at 13 was invalid anyway due to terms of service? Found someone...

    Growing A Web Design Business From Zero

    SIDE HUSTLE WEB DESIGN 
    I mentioned Meetup for Wordpress. I also recommend it for other tech things related to web technology, such as all kinds of Javascript specialties, anything related to databases, and anything related to Linux, Windows, or Mac servers and networking technology, as well as commercial photography...

    Growing A Web Design Business From Zero

    SIDE HUSTLE WEB DESIGN 
    Hi Michael, I admire your hustle and appreciate your sharing your experiences. You mentioned you learned a little Javascript. Did that come easy and was it really fun and fascinating? Or was it tedious and boring for you? You might be better staying on the sales side for now. I suggest you...

    HOW TO: Increase customer survey responses

    PEOPLE 
    This is very cool. I like the one-click convenience right from the email, instead of going to some other survey site first and who knows how much hassle that might be? Also like the visibility into your scores! Thanks so much for showing us this tip!

    HOT! REAL ESTATE 
    Writing a book doesn't prove that anyone had anything to say. It only proves that they found a way to put their words into book format. A typical business book is about 200 pages. Take a couple of months to write an outline, then write a page a day, then take a couple of months to edit...

    Paid Virtual Phone Service vs 2nd Cell Line

    That makes sense. You could still do Internet stuff on the second phone, just using the first phone's data plan as a wifi hotspot when you're away from a location with free wifi. No need to duplicate data intensive stuff like videos and maps, but this would let you have a second set of email...

    If you had a check written out to you for $150,000

    I discovered that meme in a video of a dumb young guy throwing around money to impress people at an NYC bar, who obviously wouldn't give a damn about him as soon as the money's gone. The video was shared by a guy who teaches young people how to get a job on Wall Street. I found his site when I...

    Copywriting Challenge May 2018 (Join me)

    EXECUTION 
    I would like to see someone else do a review or key points collection from the Whitman and Schwab books and from the Boron Letters. I'd also like to see someone find out exactly why Gary Halbert was sent to the minimum security prison camp, where he wrote the Boron Letters. From what Dan...

    Copywriting Challenge May 2018 (Join me)

    EXECUTION 
    It would take more than 30 days to really go through all of these books carefully. I think we should continue the challenge on the basis of going through all of these books, sharing our notes and thoughts, most importantly how we can apply what we learn to our current work... whichever month...

    Forum sidebar question for admins

    The righthand column of the forum has several widgets such as New Intros and Most Active Posts. But it seems that different items appear here only sometimes, at random different times. Is there a forum setting where I can say, please show me all of the available items all the time, even if...

    Journey to absolute freedom. Start!

    EXECUTION 
    I think that would be the responsibility of the buyer. If you do not advertise the product in a way that suggests or implies people could use it to violate the law, I have a hard time seeing how you could be held responsible. Sometimes a lawyer will try to think of the worst case catastrophe...
