    Fiance is calling my business "his/our" business, threatening to sue me

    HOT! 
    Yikes! That is brutal and the lady deserves at least some understanding. I've never been in a horrible relationship but I have known people who get tangled with people they should run a mile from. There's all sorts of psychological theories as to why we stay with people who are no good for us...

    Dubidu's Execution....Thread :-)

    EXECUTION 
    Update as at 1 August: Apologies for delay in uploading update - I was quite poorly yesterday. Semi-good news: agreed proposal with CAD file designer so waiting for his design. I have also got a meeting lined up for October (there is a Licensing conference in London that month) and have decided...

    Dubidu's Execution....Thread :-)

    EXECUTION 
    100% agree Steve - In the short time I've joined I have learnt so much. @Vigilante's post on Licensing was reassuring. The lady who reached out to him/he helped (and in turn triggered the post) seemed to have launched, licensed (with Vig's help) and exited in about 12 months! I still think my...

    Dubidu's Execution....Thread :-)

    EXECUTION 
    Thanks - my mini-update as I'm still waiting for the proposal from the designer (he is currently on vacation with the family so hopefully will get the ball rolling this week) but I'll address your comments: 1. Yes unregistered design rights are possibly a UK thing (not sure if other non-US...

    Dubidu's Execution....Thread :-)

    EXECUTION 
    Hello Ladies & Gentlemen, Some of you have already contributed to some of my threads but I'm setting this up for accountability and execution progress. I'd like your trademark bluntness and pearls of wisdom please. Background Info: 2. Idea 1 - In progress (less capital intensive, no need to...

    WeWork: Sounds/looks great, but does anyone actually work?

    HOT! 
    There are at least 3 in my immediate vicinity (I work in the UK equivalent of Wall Street and live in the UK equivalent of hipster central/tech hub). I have attended meet up events (Google host some events in one and I'm a member of that network). I have also gone to the one based in the tech...

    EXECUTION RANT 
    It's not a bad idea to knock on Staples door again but equally I think you need to focus on getting your state of mind in the right place - your confidence (or lack of) will either let you in or let you out and your post doesn't sound very confident. Resume's aren't easy but there really is a...

    Really like a lot of these super-helpful suggestions for @shelton. My two cents worth: Follow what these very experienced people are telling you. You have won two lotteries (1) You live in the western world (2) you have an internet connection - there is literally a world library at your...

    Ramit Sethi - "I TEACH YOU TO BE RICH" - how legitimate?

    BOOKS 
    I was on his list for a really long time - without being as harsh as @Mr.Brandtastic to call it trash I do agree that it is the best book on making the most out of being in the SlowLane so it has some merit; just not for FastLaners! You can get a gist of what he does from his site (ironically he...

    A Note for People Seriously Struggling

    HOT! MINDSET 
    I came to this thread because I was feeling low: I've taken action over the last couple of weeks and no-one has replied and am unclear what to do next. I called two universities (basically Ivy League equivalent in Europe; one is my alma mater and I was research assistant to a professor at the...

    Hi there, each action I take feels like I'm wasting my time and action faking

    INTRO 
    I can second both those books - without realising it, I had operated on the 'growth' mindset. I have moved within two industries and never said no to anything work related because I am of the view I can learn anything. Others around me are of a fixed mindset that Dr Carol speaks of - they are...

    Applying FastLane Principles to Finding Love?

    HOT! PEOPLE 
    I may just do that @SteveO ;) Thank you for your continuing support on this and other threads I started. The forum alone has been worth signing up to...I'm going to a start up conference in a week or so and will report back - I may meet someone there! Slightly separately to this thread...

    Applying FastLane Principles to Finding Love?

    HOT! PEOPLE 
    Thank you for taking the time to respond! Not at all - the whole point of opening myself up to the forum was not to get some kind of confirmation bias but to actually see where I might be going wrong; friends provide you with the confirmation bias you need, you pay coaches but even they have a...

    This is what 60 Pounds (27 KGS) Looks Like

    GOLD! 
    I agree with magnesium; my only qualification to that would be that apparently magnesium glycinate is the one that is best on the tummy and highly absorbable compared to other magnesiums like magnesium citrate. That has been my experience anyway. You can also get Epsom bath salts (I don't know...

    This is what 60 Pounds (27 KGS) Looks Like

    GOLD! 
    Vigilante have you heard of the proteifine diet? I've never tried it myself but as you're able to afford to purchase the south beach diet it might be an idea to mix up bundles i.e. try the south beach bundle first and then try the proteifine diet? From what I understand (and I emphasise I...

    What is the best Skill to have to get Rich?

    HOT! 
    I think it's a very good but basic comms. book which may explain why it's apparently Buffet's favourite. He displays all the classic signs of someone who is highly intelligent & more than slightly lucky (stating the obvious, I know) but who isn't the best communicator (I'm not talking about...

    Investing in other businesses and your Way to FastLane Millions?

    So helpful; thank you. This is exactly what I want to do and vendor loan is something I'm aware of (it's not applicable to the two businesses I've identified so far - when I refer to the "two businesses" I mean those pertinent to this thread, rather than my own, separate, idea that I'm working...

    Wow thank you so much SteveO - I'm having a crappy day and checked in to see such a lovely post; to see that you think I have earning potential and I'm likely a good candidate for what I'm trying to do :-) You have no idea how much that means to me...

    Ha :-) - I've been looking at this company for a while. I think its undervalued and the sector is one I understand unlike say tech where I don't understand the hyper-valuation based on what seems to be no-revenue model. The output of this co. affects/used by a large part of the population. They...
