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

    EXECUTION 
    Okay, figured I'd provide an update here on the 'big news'. So an executive-level professional and a CEO from a company reached out to me - asked if I wanted to work for them in a lateral-style move. I kindly said no thank you - would only consider working for them if they let me be at that...

    Are you an A player or a B player?

    Finding it interesting that everyone on here is strictly an A so far... Everybody wants to be the founder - nobody wants to be the #2 or #3..

    How much money is needed to live comfortably for the rest of my life?

    EXECUTION 
    $245,000 to raise a child from 0-18 years old is the statistic. So technically 13K a year. I often forget we're all at different stages/walks of life on this form. I'm a naive 23 year old not expecting children in the next decade, so you're absolutely right - I agree that there's an advantage...

    How much money is needed to live comfortably for the rest of my life?

    EXECUTION 
    I live just outside the heart of Boston with two friends - definitely not low cost of living.

    How much money is needed to live comfortably for the rest of my life?

    EXECUTION 
    Not sure if there's a conversion rate problem but 80-100K a year to live comfortably and travel the world? Dude, I'm living comfortably on 15K USD per year. What the hell are you buying to live comfortably at 80-100K? To add to this, I'm working on having enough flipping income to pay my...

    Can Someone Dumb Down 'Expected Value' for Me?

    Basic mathematics. You have a 30% chance of making $100 or a 70% chance of losing $50. (.3*100)+(.7*-50) = -$5. The expected value of this game is -$5. Your average score, if you continue to take the 30% chance to win $100, will net you a -$5 return.

    First time buying a business

    What's the cost? What are they doing for revenue? What's the profit margin? How long have they been in business? What do you get with the purchase of the business? What are the leasing fees / other monthly fees? Fully staffed / turn-key, or do you need to hire out etc? What are the logistics of...

    Are you an A player or a B player?

    Not "Alpha" or "Beta" - moreso a matter of, are you a business OWNER / CEO / Entrepreneur / FOUNDER, or are you a really good #2, #3, or #4? A player would be the founder, visionary, person who makes the business, builds it from the ground up, hires the people etc, or the person appointed to...

    EXECUTION 
    So no big update from Tuesday yet - will announce some things when they surface. In regards to my personal training and fitness company, I've taken a step back. I realized I have violated many fastlane principles, so I'm diving into what I have developed as a "Business Development Process...

    Are you an A player or a B player?

    You bet :) I'm just impatient and take my immediate knowledge from the sales jobs and try to implement them into my own businesses - all the time.. win or lose, success or failure. Always moving, always working on something.

    Are you an A player or a B player?

    Gary Vaynerchuk talks a lot about how not everybody is destined to be a #1 CEO or founder. As most of us know, the industry is saturated with young guys all wanting to be a CEO or entrepreneur because it's "the thing to be". I'm exploring this myself at 23 and have been wondering if I'd be a...

    Companies are entities, and hide behind human resources. They have no soul.

    EXECUTION 
    Interesting.. I'm 23 but I'm pretty aware of this. I'm working in sales to learn, refine my skills, and get paid based on performance. My goal is to save up enough money to cover expenses and be able to invest into businesses, while building up a side-stream of income as well. In a year or...

    EXECUTION 
    Yeah, I think the industry thing is a result of some industries being more scalable than others. Some industries have more magnitude. Working hard means nothing.. if you're in the wrong industry, you'll never make it. The New Hampshire entrepreneur kickoff program with Jeff Hoffman (Founder of...

    Offering Value for Dummies

    EXECUTION 
    I was big time into PUA (Pickup artist) studying for a few years. I spent a lot of time reading behind the bullshit on picking up girls and actually understanding the principles behind it. Value was a HUGE topic. This was the core list I got over the years of studying how to give yourself (or a...

    Getting into the Fitness Entrepreneurship Space... Thoughts?

    So I'm actually working on opening a gym myself.. I know you were talking Youtube, but I'm always wondering how people can corner a niche market in the fitness industry. Willing to take a stab here and get feedback as well. Here's what's on my whiteboard right now (I started doing this...

    EXECUTION 
    Yeah lots. From the top of my head: - Think outside the box (or don't even imagine a box at ALL) - you have to get creative. Founder of SoBe energy drinks was on his way to a convention in the early days - they decided to purposely slash their own tires near the convention - so there was no...

    Thanks for posting and following! Before I answer your question, I'll advise from 'following your passion'. Don't do it because you like it or are good at it, do it because there's a clear NEED. I've found that there's always a need for a personal trainer, but you need to identify what makes...

    I'm trying to keep this off the grid until it's officially announced (since my name and face are attached here) but I've got an opportunity that has presented itself that looks very very promising. Will have a *BIG* update on Tuesday. Heading to UNH this weekend for their entrepreneurship...

    22 Years Old: First Apartment Building Acquisition Done

    GOLD! REAL ESTATE 
    If i'm doing between 60-100K reported income and have 40K student loan debt, what do you guess I could get approved for? The 25K reflected an entry level salary + commission for half the year (was in school the other half) which will nearly double shortly (couple things actively in the works)...
