    Small talk tips?

    PEOPLE 
    Some people are great communicators and can talk to absolutely anyone, and some suck at it. I'm the latter. I'm trying to get better. Here are a few tips that I wrote down so far from asking the 'natural' communicators and searching the forum: - While the other person is still talking...

    A Hustler's Guide To Buying And Selling Anything (Part 2)

    GOLD! SIDE HUSTLE 
    Do you only give them the connection after they pay you something up front or their verbal agreement to pay you if they get the job sufficient enough? Or you're the middle man throughout the whole thing as in each party thinks they are working with/for you?

    Sustaining Great Energy Levels?

    HOT! 
    Doing what you're interested in lets you go all day everyday at it. If you're unmotivated it just means you're not passionate about the thing you're doing. Do something else. Having other people doing it with you as partners and relying on you helps too. Coffee and red bull for the extra push.

    How I 'retired' at age 22.

    EXECUTION 
    Simply brilliant. You may well be one of the richer men on this forum because you have the ultimate commodity on your side - (free) time. P.S. Why did you hate the concierge business? I have a chance to get into something similar and would love a first hand opinion on it. Specifically, did you...

    Company that can help sell your car?

    How would you market it though? I flip cars too (junk-3k) and I had one person ask me to sell their car for them and made a flat $100 on it so let's say the need is there. But is the market big enough in the 2k-5k you mentioned? Seems like most people would rather sell the car themselves. Over...

    How to enjoy life?

    HOT! MINDSET 
    I've been where you are bro. I got out of it by going out and gaining new experiences, saying "Yes" to things people invited me to do no matter if I felt they were stupid/dangerous/not my thing as long as they were new and made me "live a little". And taking action towards my goals. When you're...

    Why Bitcoin will do to banking what the cell phone did to communication

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Discovered bitcoin back in '12 when it was just a couple bucks to purchase them. Mined them for a while. Read MJ's book around the same time and the concept of Value just blew my mind, so I applied it to everything around me including bitcoin. Couldn't find any value in it. It's only valuable to...

    Is everything "entertainment" a waste of time?

    EXECUTION 
    Are you understanding the concept of value correctly? The value you provide is not in what you sell, but in what NEEDS it can fulfill for the SPECIFIC, UNIQUE customer. People have different needs than YOU! Average Joe doesn't care that you want to create value for the world. He just wants to...

    Is it a waste of time to read too much?

    I am personally not reading another book until I achieve a certain level of success. It seems books are great for generating big ideas but when starting at the bottom action simply trumps everything. Instead: mentors have been extremely effective for me. Shaving off a huge learning curve with...

    A Hustler's Guide To Buying And Selling Anything (Part 1)

    GOLD! SIDE HUSTLE 
    Got burned buying electronics from CL to sell on eBay today because they turned out to be counterfeit. High-quality fakes sure, but not going to risk my eBay/PayPal w/ them. The moral of my $300 "lesson" is if you're buying an electronics item from CL check the serial number on the company's...

    Great talk! I found the Compound Effect concept great for combating instant gratification urges and being able to focus on longer term goals without losing any motivation.

    What book are you reading? Right now. Post up!

    NOTABLE! HOT! BOOKS CHAT 
    Thanks for the recommendation. That book is insane. I gotta say before reading it I sometimes wondered about 'unproportionate' number of Jews in business, but the author explains why that is perfectly. I'm not going to spoil it for someone who's going to read it, but I'll say it has something to...

    What to do with a college fund with $15,000

    If you're dead set on IT, go to a trade school for it. 3 of my friends went to http://www4.stanbridge.edu/s9/content/it-overview and easily got entry level jobs in IT, then moved up the ladder. The alumni/current student NETWORK in trade schools is also strong because most students there get...
