    How a $2 "life hack" changed everything. Thank you MJ!

    GOLD! HEALTH NEWSLETTER 
    If you're not subscribed to the Fastlane Forum news letter, you're missing out! I also have a "Health Journal". I track blood sugar weight and workout activity. Thanks to your news letter, I will expand what I document. BTW I had that same itch in the arch of my foot. Seriously one of the most...

    Quit $450k job to go fastlane: smart or not?

    HOT! MINDSET 
    A high paid wage slave is still a slave. It depends on what you value the most. For me, freedom is the ultimate goal. I would totally take a $450,000 a year job over a $30,000 a year job, but I would have a plan and an exit strategy in either case. The high salary would not be my end goal...

    Sure I found him on twitter. I'm sure he can afford his own copy of the book so if he's ready he will purchase one. I have always found that people never value something they got for free (even if it's of high value). But you never know he might just read the first page and be sucked out of...

    Agree with you. The guy will be fine. He's a senior software engineer in America! If he can't make a go of it he probably doesn't have a pulse! I think the story was more click bait than anything else and it perpetuates the "Do what you love myth!" The myth is you don't need a plan you just need...

    For me it's not about the guy. I wish him the best! It's about the article and how it puts it out there. It's misleading.

    HOT! MINDSET 
    The title of the article,"I quit my job as a Netflix engineer making $450,000 a year. The money wasn't worth the boredom." The title does not say, "I worked as a wage slave for 7 years was conscientious and saved up a more money than most people will see in their lifetime, devised a plan to get...

    He worked for 7 seven years at those wage levels, being 1st generation American with Asian parents, my guess is he banked a whole lot. You can see that he still lives in the Bay area and after 8 month of no real income he's doesn't sound really worried. I also think he got a TON of free...

    Found him on Twitter and messaged him the following: "I kindly suggest reading M.J. Demarco's Millionaire Fastlane. It helped me tremendously in my Entrepreneur journey. I'm not being paid to mention this either. Just some friendly advice. Looks to me like you have a good start. All the best!"

    I'm going to see if I can contact this guy and suggest he read MJ's books. "You can lead a horse to water but you can't make him drink."

    This guy so needs to read your books MJ! Do what you love and "Action faking" (I suspect) meet! Eight months and the guy has NOT found a "reliable income stream" as a senior software engineer! Would you like fries with that? This is so classic,"Although I'm just starting and don't have any...

    My Latest Experience Selling N95 Masks

    HOT! SIDE HUSTLE 
    It depends. I see masks for sale everywhere (Walmart is selling them from multiple suppliers) here in central Texas but that might just be a regional situation. I'm not sure there is a demand any longer. I would do some research on it. All the best.

    New idea/general advice

    IDEA 
    Make the really good one and go and test market it on people you trust. Also google it and see if someone else made one. BTW remember the Snuggie? Who would have thought that would have sold millions but it did and is still selling in the colder months. See at Wmart every year. Good luck.

    New idea/general advice

    IDEA 
    I suggest that you make a prototype, show it to people you trust and see what their response to it is. If they say, "I like it" but go no further then it's not a great idea. If they say ,"I love it! How much will it cost me and when can I have one then you more than likely have something. All...

    I finally have a business that has allowed me to resign from my job.

    EXECUTION 
    Becoming a "successful entrepreneur" (YOU define what that is) is like taking the Red pill vs the Blue pill. You stand outside the norm of society and the majority "worker bee" mentality. This mentality is what you have to deprogram or reprogram yourself from in order to succeed and as you could...

    Tesla and Elon Musk weirdness...

    INVESTING 
    Musk has a LOT of problems now! SEC for the stupid tweets (although factual tweets imo) Not building cars and even if he was, we have 30 million+ people out of work, who are not buying cars. An economy that has tanked. Price of oil is super low, so is gasoline. Every auto manufacturer in the...

    Has Amazon become a monopoly?

    HOT! 
    They are not forcing anyone to use their services. Microsoft kicked them in the privates on the cloud business for the government and if they keep screwing people like you and all the Amazon "partners" they will create a massive hole in the market. This pandemic really screwed people who sell...
