    I have a problem with MJ DeMarco (Follow your passion gets a beatdown)

    GOLD! HOT! 
    I get where you're coming from completely. I think change is inevitable during a journey like this, and I go through at least 2 to 3 big changes a year I would say, where my beliefs and visions change completely, usually due to knowledge gained or experiences happened. All I know is that right...

    I have a problem with MJ DeMarco (Follow your passion gets a beatdown)

    GOLD! HOT! 
    My takeaway from that comment was: Spend 5-10 years making a fastlane business that will generate you income for the rest of your life, then spend the rest of your life doing what you love without the need for money getting in the way. Then it doesn't matter how much you make, you can just do...

    Breaking My Phone Addiction

    HOT! MINDSET 
    One thing I found really helped me was to put it in a bag or in the back of the car when I was traveling or upstairs when you're working downstairs etc. Don't have it in your pocket or next to you all the time, you'll forget about it really quick. Also make sure it doesn't vibrate or make any...

    Basic Financial Intelligence is Fastlane: Some Simple Strategies to Use Now.

    GOLD! INVESTING 
    I think that the word "Trader" in this case essentially means like trading goods or services, instead of trading on the stock markets. Most people here who are Sole Traders are Plumbers, Electricians etc. and they just go around fixing domestic properties.

    Basic Financial Intelligence is Fastlane: Some Simple Strategies to Use Now.

    GOLD! INVESTING 
    Awesome! That sounds like an interesting business to be managing! I have always found distribution systems very interesting. And no haha. Sole Trader here is the same as a Sole Proprietorship, a business owned and managed by one person. I'm essentially a free-lance game developer currently...

    Basic Financial Intelligence is Fastlane: Some Simple Strategies to Use Now.

    GOLD! INVESTING 
    Ah I see! That definitely sounds like a good way to go when you have staff to manage etc. I am currently just a Sole Trader which is not ideal for Fastlane but I currently don't earn enough to start a LTD Company or anything like that. I am essentially still working a job, just self-employed and...

    Basic Financial Intelligence is Fastlane: Some Simple Strategies to Use Now.

    GOLD! INVESTING 
    I know a lot of people who struggle with that. My friend especially will just spend his money if it's not somewhere he can't see it. I personally don't have too much trouble. The tax money takes 1 day to withdraw so that is a good deterrent if I ever get tempted but I'm pretty good at putting...

    Basic Financial Intelligence is Fastlane: Some Simple Strategies to Use Now.

    GOLD! INVESTING 
    Well it's the start of it yes. But I also have my "tax" savings for when I do my self assessment as I put some aside every month, and a pool of money to pay the credit card off each month etc. It'll do until I'm actually generating some decent income, then I can move it around to better places.

    That's really funny actually, as I am about to go and have a conversation with my parents tomorrow about putting themselves into financial ruin by overspending and excessive debt, so the tables have turned this time!

    Basic Financial Intelligence is Fastlane: Some Simple Strategies to Use Now.

    GOLD! INVESTING 
    I currently have around £14k worth of debt. Granted most of this is for a car, with only around £2.5k on a credit card and it definitely stings quite a lot. This being the case I still watch my money carefully, but definitely could benefit from the weekly reviews as mentioned before. Since...

    Incredible. 5 minutes of reading and I'm already $1m smarter! I was thinking of getting some books to increase my financial literacy after I've finished Unscripted as I am definitely not at the right level just yet. I'm sure there are some in the books PDF that I downloaded when I joined...

    The Map of Victory: Managing the Complexities of life

    GOLD! MINDSET 
    Big fan on this take and I completely agree it's really hard to manage everything in life and can be extremely overwhelming at times. I felt very overwhelmed for a long time when I started the journey to wealth, and still get like that now, I think it's something that comes and goes. Also a...

    Essential supplements: Which ones do you take?

    HOT! HEALTH 
    IMHO the only things you can really supplement effectively (if you don't have deficiencies) are Creatine and Vitamin D. Most other supplements are either the incorrect dosage such as multivitamins or just don't work as well. I only supplement the two above and get the rest of my vitamins and...
