    Additionally, if you fail I'll be donating $500 to a random hate group in your name. (you'll have to guess if i'm joking or not) About your OP: Action fakers write more. They feel explanations are in order. Successful people don't need explanations. If you've got an hour to meditate on this...

    HOT! 
    What does being a millionaire mean to ME? Opportunity to scale. Ability to create bigger and better automated systems and businesses QUICKLY. I don't know if I'll ever experience the freedom I want, even if I had a few BILLION. My ambitions are REALLY big,..

    Stop Saying "Should"

    MINDSET 
    Another word I hate is "planning" If anybody asks what you're up to, or what stage you're in with your biz, never say you're "planning". It's better to say nothing at all. You should ALWAYS be planning, but saying it aloud makes you seem like a tool. Like someone who's all talk. Open your...

    How to be faster than a Ferrari for less money than a Honda Civic

    HOT! MINDSET 
    I come from a long line of bikers. All my neighbors, all my parents friends, all my cousins rode bikes. After the 3rd biking related funeral of a loved one before turning 15 I realized it was something that I loved, but wouldn't do. Yes, in a few of the cases, it WAS their fault. But had they...

    I guess the post was technically "self promotional" but I still enjoyed it. If he had shared all of that info in written form we'd all be giving him speed. There was no sales pitch, no call to subscribe. no monetization enabled on the video. Just a dude sharing what he's experienced in front of...

    Anyone into NLP?

    MINDSET 
    I said it in jest because I'm skeptical. Most jibberish floating around is based on uncontrolled anecdotal "evidence" I have a scientific mind and although there have been social experiments conducted on NLP, there's not nearly enough material there for me to take it seriously. I look at it the...

    Last night I put out a few craigslist ads for a project. I was lookin for videographers and models... but then it occurred to me I can totally produce video remotely doing the exact same thing you're doing here. Contact wedding videographers. Tell them I'm an agency with an overflow of work...

    Online Entertainment: NOW is the time.

    wow! That's so interesting! Really good info to have, I doubt people are paying extra to get their ads recorded, more likely the movie producers paid extra to make sure it WASN'T included. Might have been they were split testing engagement rates between different trailers and didn't want...

    8 nerds launch a $12M card game biz

    lol, next episode or two will have a podcast intro that I produced for them! Keep your ears open! ;) And I agree with you. This market is growing. I think there's a whole legion of boardgame/cardgame/trivia intelligent fans out there that aren't being served properly. As for fastlane...

    8 nerds launch a $12M card game biz

    Lots of BGG users have families that will playtest, might as well give it a try. Another strategy worth a shot might be chaperoning/hosting a local library board game group for your target age group. You can see how they interact with other games, and get them to playtest your game at some...

    8 nerds launch a $12M card game biz

    If you're going to do that, consider releasing a print and play version via boardgamegeek first. There's a ton that goes into game design, and it's a free way of getting feedback on if your game sucks or not. I have a monster battle card game I drew up on index cards and I've been...

    Why it's easier to become a millionaire in our country...

    Meh, that's just a debate over termonology. I don't think anybody would claim that a "peso millionaire" counts as a millionaire when it comes to the culturally or globally accepted connotation of millionaire. Is somebody with $10K USD a millionaire in Japanese Yen? I guess if you want to be...

    $2500-$5000 to quit your job?

    5K? F*ck yeah. I quit my job for $0. Twice. An extra 5K would buy me some decent equipment would allow me to make more money than any job could pay me. Lets shake on it. I get almost everything online. It saves SO MUCH TIME. I get 40lb of kitty litter delivered to my house once a month, which...

    EXECUTION 
    Not at all. It sounds like a practical way. The only way, really. Even if this was your sole source of income, and you spent 40h/w on it, When you DO reach the 2500/week goal (and it will happen, even if it takes a month or prepwork) it would still be worth it. You'd be valuing your time at...

    I'm interested in this thread. It makes me want to start a web series where entrepreneurial minded cats like yourself challenge themselves to see how much $ they can make starting with 0 and going to $$$. Reselling on ebay, craigslist hacking, reselling cars, no cash down RE deals, etc would be...
