    My parents don't allow me to start my side hustle - What would you do if you were in my situation?

    QUESTION 
    Most dudes your age smoke behind their parents back. You're worried about trying to build a business behind their back? My advice, do it without their knowledge. If they're not in the position you'd like to be in, listen to those who are. Keep them happy by studying, but don't fall into the...

    Fastest Way To Learn Financial Terms

    INVESTING 
    Newsletters are useful too. Heck, scrolling the forum teaches you something new every day. ChatGPT is a powerhouse for breaking down definitions & giving examples. I love it. Another thing: watch Shark Tank, there's thousands of videos on YouTube. A lot of the stuff they talk about is highly...

    Need opinions! Landing page feedback

    IDEA 
    Your point resonated with me, as did @StrikingViper69 (who said something similar). I'm going to make a custom form link & email it to customers once they purchase. As I scale, I can look into my initial idea. Right now, I'm wasting time by hoarding emails when I could be making sales. Sure...

    IDEA 
    Wow. Thank you for the time & effort you put into reading my landing page & laying out suggestions like you have. This feedback (along with all responses) is invaluable. I'm going to assess and act as soon as possible. It's a long & lonely road & it's something I'm prepared for!

    Need opinions! Landing page feedback

    IDEA 
    Thanks for the feedback. This is good to know, the landing page definitely isn't sharp. I didn't want to make the mistake I did before (spend a sh*t ton of time perfecting the front end website, get 0 sales). I was originally using bluehost & WordPress, but Bluehost are horrible & ended up...

    Need opinions! Landing page feedback

    IDEA 
    Thanks for the feedback. I know my plan sounds a bit impractical, but sending out a simple form is cheap & unprofessional IMO. Ideally, it would be implemented into the website via a pay wall. This is quite time consuming, so I want to get some form(s) of market validation before deploying...

    Need opinions! Landing page feedback

    IDEA 
    Yeah, its not the prettiest. I'm working with MailCheat(Chimp) to create the page, so my design capability is limited. Is it the UI, colours or style that's awful? I can move the copy further up. For your question, I will launch and work on the guts of the project if I receive 50 launch notification...

    Agreed. But damn, why do you have to write such good books MJ!!

    Need opinions! Landing page feedback

    IDEA 
    My bad, I should have explained better. My aim is to interest my customer in the product (maybe their/a loved ones pet passed away) to the point where they hand over their email. I'm doing this mostly because handing over an email expresses much more interest than a comment or like on my...

    Need opinions! Landing page feedback

    IDEA 
    Launch newsletter to see if people are willing to exchange their email for launch notifications pretty much. Traffic will be directed straight from Meta ads, as I found out my audience mostly hangs out on Meta services. Pretty much getting some market validation before commiting to the...

    Need opinions! Landing page feedback

    IDEA 
    I'm planning to start collecting 50 emails before I start working on the back end of my project. I've created a pretty simple landing page to direct ad traffic to. Keep in mind, I'm keeping costs down until the concept is validated (people see my MVP & express interest). I've researched and...

    GUIDE: How to F*CK Your 20s in less than one minute!

    MINDSET 
    Overindulge in alcohol/narcotics (including weed) I've seen so many friends morph into mindless zombies because of weed. Speech? Slurred and slow. Energy? What energy? And don't get me started about Saturday night booze fests. Most people's 20s are packed full of hungover Sundays with nothing...

    In the desert of desertion

    INTRO 
    Desert desertion is a tough thing to deal with, I had it not too long ago. Do what you can with what you have NOW. First things first, what's the hold up in getting in contact with your cousin? He's in the desired industry so he probably has a goldmine of knowledge. Secondly, reach out to...

    Focusing on fitness should be the #1 priority. In my opinion, it's undoubtedly the most important asset you can have in the pursuit of any venture. It's like building the foundation for a house, the confidence and magnetism you gain from fitness just expands to every area in your life. Best of...

    Crawling thru a sewer pipe filled with sh*t: Why it matters.

    GOLD! MINDSET 
    Every successful person had to crawl through sh*t to get where they are. Unfortunately, school has brainwashed many children that failure is bad & you should be punished for it. Moreover, education isn't limited to knowing what a "limestone" is, LOL! Crawling though sh*t develops perseverance...

    21yo. Parents already millonaires but want to make it by myself.

    INTRO 
    First off, congratulations for saving $7,000 at the age of 21. People don't realise it, but most American ADULTS can't even afford a $300 emergency expense. Your parents are obviously clever & want the best for you. You have an extreme advantage of a financial cushion to rely on. Like someone...

    Cut the booze. Realise you're in a good position. Most Americans can't cover a $1000 expense (I think its even less), yet here you are- 25 with 20k in savings & a good paying job. The only thing holding you back is internalised, that's why I said cut the booze. Hit the gym and stimulate your...
