    Who here is actually a millionaire?

    LANDFILL 
    Truth. I went out with a few friends to a bar once and met this guy who wouldn't stop flaunting his 'wealth' - was telling me how much he made (which wasn't more than I made, nor was it impressive).. I couldn't help but feel sorry for the guy. It's true - people who have it don't need to say it...

    WTF does Tai Lopez do?

    GURUS 
    I wouldn't accept money from Tai Lopez for coaching - let alone pay him.

    HOT! MINDSET 
    Just take one action step.. Every.Single.Day. Start with a plan, write it out, and just do one thing every single day. You don't have to conquer the world tomorrow morning, but you should look to take at least one step a day towards your particular ideal. Then, when that becomes too simple...

    STOP Paying Rent: Live For Free

    GOLD! REAL ESTATE 
    How long until you can effectively move out of an FHA house? I believe the minimum is 2 years? Also, I believe you can get a second FHA without having to front 20% down, or you can do a conventional loan at 5% down? I'm sure you covered it somewhere and I need to keep reading through, but from...

    YOUR WEALTH EQUATION: How to GET PAID Like Ronald McDonald

    MINDSET RANT 
    I'm pretty deep into the health/wellness industry, and can't help but agree with this statement. Surgical and Big-Pharma are such big, unethical, profitable industries that they're impossible to break unless the consumer just wisens up and makes better choices. I've been having those...

    Liars and Thieves

    Curious to hear where this person is today.. I believe the business-world is relatively small, too. Once you start stepping into the realm of massive success, there aren't THAT many other people on the same wavelength as you. So if you become 'that guy', you won't last very long with a poor...

    Liars and Thieves

    Does anyone else see all too often, people lying about their businesses in order to advance in society? I heard a story about a current student at the college I graduated from who's claimed he's generated millions in revenue by age 19 with his business / businesses.. and most notably was on...

    How many action fakes can the fastlane come up with??

    GOLD! HOT! CHAT 
    I've been told I'm "Too young and inexperienced" to start a business. I wonder what Patrick and John Collison think about that one..

    SIXTEEN FAILURES STRAIGHT!!! Until.....

    Failure has been mis-used so often and is part of the SCRIPTED life we are taught to live. We're taught that failure is a bad thing - that if you fail, you get fired, or grades marked against you, when in fact, failure is critical to learn and grow from. I've also started to incorporate the...

    Dead-End Sh*t Jobs ... Yours?

    NOTABLE! 
    The Sales Development job will pay off - mine certainly did. I realized from doing that role that I could apply that same job to any business I start and there's almost no reason why I wouldn't be able to make sales. A lot of businesses I've failed at in the past were simply because I didn't put...

    When did you realize the system is rigged?

    NOTABLE! 
    I can echo the college story. When professors have you buying books (sometimes even THEIR books) that cost $500 each for the 'current edition' - when the previous edition is now worth $60 but is considered 'outdated for the class' - and then you end up using 30 out of the 400 pages in the book...

    When did you realize the system is rigged?

    NOTABLE! 
    I'm relatively the same. I realized the system was rigged when I was old enough to understand the struggles my parents went through, even before I started working myself. My father came from welfare. My mother came from a single-mother in a second-floor apartment in a shitty area. My father...

    Your Boss Doesn't Give A Shit About You

    NOTABLE! PEOPLE 
    Someone said on the forum once "work hard enough so you don't get fired.. pay enough so they don't quit. That is the name of the game."

    Does It Hurt Bad Enough?

    GOLD! MINDSET 
    Such a good thread with many good ruminating stories. I feel there are many moments in life where you have to ask your self 'does it hurt bad enough' to make a change.. since we are CONSTANTLY evolving.. My biggest shift was when I turned 18 and graduated high school - I ditched the loser...

    Dead-End Sh*t Jobs ... Yours?

    NOTABLE! 
    My dead-end shit jobs have been significantly evolving and helping me acquire the skills and tools I need to be a successful CEO and founder, in my honest opinion. 17/18 years old - retail sales associate making $8 an hour, which went up to $8.58 after 2 years with raises. Worked the job of 3...

    Depression because of a waste of time Need your help !

    You are 18. Any decision you make in business (school, start a company, etc) cannot be wrong. You will learn. You will grow. You can't be depressed if you are trying new things that you enjoy. Just start gathering experiences. There is no right or wrong answer.

    Set up to Fail, Driven to Succeed - Journey from 0 to Serial Entrepreneur

    EXECUTION 
    I find I'm spending more time working on myself than on a business. I'm really trying to build the foundation for which I can focus time, energy, and effort on solving real-world business problems. I understand now that personal training isn't going to be scalable. It may be when I enter the...

    CENTS, SaaS, and a $10 million exit in 3 to 5 years

    SAAS / APPS EXECUTION 
    Have you considered raising cash (whether it be investors or friends/family etc) so you can go to market faster, execute faster, and possibly break the valuation number you're aiming for? I've never been a big proponent of raising money, but several really successful professors I've had always...

    [RANT]: Raise the minimum wage! This is so unfair!

    GOLD! EXECUTION 
    Have to bump this one back from the dead because this is truly gold. I saved the image MJ made on how your choices change your life and put you into 1 of the 3 buckets of people... I've been taking some notes myself and came up with my own set of criteria for the difference between a...
