    eCommerce "Try 2"

    EXECUTION 
    Not to pick on you, but it's these sort of posts that I think can set the wrong expectations. Hugh is a friend of mine, and he has been in the game for YEARS. It definitely took him a while to be successful, and he had a long path to get there. He knows what he's doing after years of...

    If my business says "crooked" - am I?

    1. I don't like the name (or branding for that matter). 2. I suggest you niche down. Your "logo" says you do design, builds, and remodels. Which is it? I have a friend who has started a successful remodel business and is doing quite well. He's one of my most creative friends. He didn't get...

    Is Anyone Else Intermittent Fasting?

    NOTABLE! 
    Man, it's great a lot of you love IF, but I've tried it and I can't seem to solve a few issues: Morning Hunger: I'm terribly hungry in the morning, even after coffee. I typically do fasted cardio, and then eat right after. On IF, I may do fasted cardio and eat 2-3 hours after and I'm famished...

    Sourcing from China is old news, Vietnam new news?

    HOT! SOURCING 
    I think this is the key point. Having been to both countries several times, it's easy to see why Vietnam isn't as popular as China. One, the population is a fraction of China's, and two the English is poor, and the Vietnamese aren't up to speed on the opportunities of the internet (but they...

    2018 Fastlane Summit - Confirmed Speaker List

    MEETUPS 
    I like this - but does this mean you'll take orders beyond the 80-100 if people return tickets, thereby creating a sort of wait list?

    I did something stupid today..

    I have nearly $1000 in my portable audio gear - it's ridiculous, and that's just for two pairs of headphones and a dragonfly DAC. My biggest annoyance is with wearing headphones out. I have a $300 pair of Bose that I know will break one day, and an even more expensive pair of cans where I fear...

    Location-independent/digital nomad lifestyle - ask me anything

    OFF-TOPIC 
    This. Business comes first over location independency. I put my business over my lifestyle "wants" - if it's better for me to be based in Asia while sourcing products that's where I'll go. Do I need a warehouse in the states? I'll post up there until I figure it out. Having not had a "home...

    There are inspection companies (on shore and off shore) you can use, and I recommend you do.

    Although I can see where you're coming from, I respectfully disagree. The answer is: it depends. I have extended my travel because I met a woman. I already had accommodations in another country, but it's just money. Personally, I don't see a problem helping a woman out to live the lifestyle...

    Here's a list of Asia - these are my opinions from actually living/traveling to these places unless otherwise noted Favorites: Bali, Indonesia - Bali, to me, is this mystical enchanted island. I came here for one month and stayed for over 6. I go back every year. If you like beautiful sandy...

    Because who you're around directly influences you. Chang Mai is not a bad place, by any means, and it's great if you want to be on your own there and get away from city life. I was there two months last year in my apartment, but I was in my apartment grinding. I also think Chang Mai has too many...

    This is everyone's "million dollar" question. You need to FOCUS on this question and start figuring it out for yourself. It's unlikely someone is going to just gift you a profitable idea...

    What "The Founder" can teach all of us

    HOT! MINDSET 
    Good point, and you're probably right. From my point of view I would have never made the deal they made in the movie (I have doubts as to how true to life the movie was), and I think that's why I was upset about what Ray Kroc did. Perhaps it's Hollywood simply vilifying Ray Kroc for the movie...

    From employee to entrepreneur...back to employee! Help!

    INTRO 
    Your entire thread you are focusing on yourself. "I" want this. "I" don't want that. "I hate" being an employee. You need to learn that, to have a successful business, you need to focus on customers and what they want. Focus on picking a product and needs instead of your current situation or...

    How to get out of parents house?

    MINDSET 
    If what you said is true it's no doubt you should leave the situation. Go sleep on a friends couch for a week or two and see how you feel. You feel trapped because mentally you don't think you have options. Get out, get a better job, whatever you need to do - even if it means sleeping on...

    What "The Founder" can teach all of us

    HOT! MINDSET 
    I got something completely different out of the movie: don't make bad deals. In the movie Kroc completely screwed over the McDonald's brothers. However, the movie isn't quite true to real life as it seems (google). My major takeaway is: don't make bad deals and watch out for guys like Kroc.

    Every person here should know the consequences of any risks you take be it health, wealth or otherwise. I don't have remorse for a guy who knew the risks of his choices and took them anyways.
