    Very subtle nonsense

    Hey folks, hypocrisy is everywhere. Ever read a book or watch a YouTube video that might certainly mean well, but still FAILS to be truly genuine? Perhaps a YouTube video that has a definite and valuable POINT and MEANING but, nevertheless, is like a brilliant song on a shiny album that's...

    Unity

    OFF-TOPIC 
    View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MBLji5dMS_k MJ, I understand if this topic is too controversial right now or inappropriate for this forum. If it needs to be taken down, it's your call, and I respect it. God bless all of you.

    Patent Application Process

    Hey everybody, I recently hired a mechanical engineer to draw up some blueprints and images of an invention that I came up with that would eventually be licensed (or sold outright), and now onto the patent application process (utility patent; I don't need a provisional patent because nothing...

    The "F this" event

    MINDSET 
    Forgive me if this has been brought up in prior posts or threads, but I'm curious to know what your FTE was (those familiar with "Unscripted" know what this is). I'll share mine. I was a high-school drop out working at McDonald's as a cook being trained on my first day by a person who didn't...

    Hypothetical legal question

    If I were to own a realty company that purchased real estate for brick and mortar franchises to conduct business on, and I also had a second company that conducted business on the real estate that my realty company owned, would that be considered a monopoly or be illegal? In other words...

    The future of movie theaters?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Do you guys (and gals) think that movie theaters will be around forever, or do you think that they will eventually die off with the domination of streaming services and VR, etc. Earlier, I went to see Toy Story 4 (really good btw). I expected there to be noise since the theater was packed with...

    I got really lucky in a really weird way

    INVESTING 
    I invest in stocks and trade from time to time. I understand that this is certainly not Fastlane; it's risky, we lack control, we need a pretty hefty sum of money to begin with. I'm not recommending doing what I did, just sharing. Also, I have money to "play with", I didn't increase my wealth...

    One thing all successful entrepreneurs seem to have in common

    MINDSET 
    I have plenty of friends and acquaintances who are very successful entrepreneurs and business owners as well as many other self-made millionaires that seem to have a very specific trait in common. At least 90% of them seem to be able to "see themselves" and their current place in Reality. I've...

    Learn from my mistake - counterfeit goods

    EXECUTION 
    I hope this failure of mine can be served as a warning to anyone who might fall into the same scam I found myself in. A few years ago, I was on Wish.com comparing their prices to those of the same items on Ebay and Amazon for the purposes of re-selling or "flipping". I came across a cologne...

    Your advice please

    I have very specific designs and ideas for a series of fitness machines, all of which I have never seen anywhere online or at any gym. I'm looking to get the designs patented, only I know next t o nothing about engineering, making the patent designs rather difficult to write (I understand every...

    Business models and the importance of adapting to market shifts

    I really like the point that MJ has stated in which a set business model is useless because the market itself will give your business feedback on what your changing business model should actually be. The reason I like this concept so much, other than the fact that it's true, is because it is a...

    Money does NOT equal happiness

    Okay, I'm not here to say that the rich are evil, capitalism sucks, money is the root of all evil, or to bash entrepreneurs or money in any way whatsoever. I personally know a plethora of multimillionaires who suffer from chronic depression, bitter divorces, people who are serious alcoholics...

    The future of Fastlane mentality and business implementation

    Hey everybody. Do you think that Fastlane mentality and CENTS business models will eventually become mainstream anytime at all in the future? Or do you think it will always remain a relatively "underground" or non-mainstream business model? And why? Thanks.

    Morning routines

    OFF-TOPIC 
    I've heard that a lot of successful people have very specific morning routines upon awakening. Was curious if any of you folks have a specific routine you go through when you wake up. I'd provide mine but it's pretty boring and probably wouldn't add any value to your life.

    Elon Musk being sued for fraud by SEC

    INVESTING 
    So the SEC has officially filed a subpoena for Elon under the charge of fraud after he tweeted about taking Tesla private, then reversing. Stock price dropped immediately and after-hours stock price looks really bad. I'm an investor (not in Tesla) so I tend to look at business news from that...

    Least credible money/business/finance "guru"

    I'm curious: of all the so-called "guru"s out there making a buck dishing hurtful or potentially fraudulent content who also has lots of followers, who would you pick as the worst or most dangerous to true financial success. In other words, if you could warn the world to stay away from any guru...

    Kyle MacDonald

    In case you're unfamiliar with who this is, Kyle started with a paperclip, traded it for something slightly more valuable, and repeated until he traded something for a house. I only recently became familiar with him and his story. Just wondering if anybody here has ever tried anything like this...

    My Shopify dropshipping experience...

    I gave Shopify dropshipping a try once a while back. I built a site that sold tennis products. I have no interest in tennis myself, but I just picked a niche and used some FU money to fund the Shpoify fees and FB advertising fees. This was, mind you, more of an experiment than something I...
