    Cheap houses you can buy in detroit for less than $500

    REAL ESTATE 
    The local government is bankrupt, and if they did decide to get a bug up their asses about unpaid property taxes on a burnt-out house, I'm out $40. If they ran me out of town, I'd get to leave Detroit. Sounds like a win-win to me. :-p

    Vitamins????

    Much of the FUD surrounding nutritional supplements is suspect because of big pharma's involvement in much of the disparaging "research". If proper nutrition and lifestyle can cure most of what ails us, that doesn't leave a lot of market for statins and diabetes medication and other patent-able...

    No man can serve two masters

    Thanks! I'm very familiar with the process, which is why I say there's no way I can accomplish anything substantial in that area working part time (weird hours at that!). It's certainly a very involved process. That said, I enjoy hearing a variety of views on the subject because of that...

    No man can serve two masters

    Not exactly...this isn't venture capital, I'm looking for seed money from an angel. Nope, there's no revenue, no valuation...just "I need x to get this process off the ground". I harbor no delusions about valuations and the like here. This is a higher-risk investment for a fairly substantial...

    No man can serve two masters

    I've been trying to get something going for myself for many months now, and I'm realizing it's not going to happen in my spare time. I've been trained in how to acquire businesses from beginning to end, from identifying good businesses for sale to due diligence, financing, negotiation, and...

    Nootropics & I (Progress Thread)

    EXECUTION 
    Wow...piggybacking off the name, "NZT" is both very smart, and very VERY misleading. I wouldn't trust these guys for a second. "Omniracetam" is not an actual chemical compound, and there's no telling what's actually in it (if you're lucky, it's just a blend of racetams). Overpriced...

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Take the sloooooooow lane to success, THEN try to start a business! Brilliant! This just reaffirms my risk-averse disposition. I think I'll just keep punching a clock where it's nice and safe. Thanks Suze!

    Nootropics & I (Progress Thread)

    EXECUTION 
    Happy to help. Stuff has changed my life, and I hope noots become more accessible as time goes on. Unfortunately, things aren't looking good from a regulatory standpoint, but for now, this is a really good way to ease into that world without having to spend a month researching, guessing, and...

    Nootropics & I (Progress Thread)

    EXECUTION 
    A neuroscientist friend of mine is involved with a nootropics startup. He created a coupon code for me so I could share with you guys: truBrain code: truNumus That gives you a 15% discount. I receive no kickback or commission for this. I just figured I'd share since it's an easy way to get...

    Buying a new car

    HOT! MINDSET 
    You could do what I did...the money hasn't started pouring in like crazy yet or anything, but I went with a last-gen E-class (considered a 5 series too) that had around 75k on it, and was in great shape. Only an enthusiast is going to know the shape of the headlights changed in the last couple...

    Yeesh...I feel weird with the looks I get in my last-gen E500. I don't know if I could handle the level of attention a Lambo generates. Good on ya, Allen. :-)

    I absolutely loved this documentary. When I've achieved my fastlane goals, one of my dreams is to visit his restaurant and partake in the fruits of that passion. There's something special about a person so dedicated to the perfection of a single skill. The dedication and focus required is no...

    Marketing Pro Tips

    MARKETING 
    This will cost you nothing to do, but could be worth its weight in gold. Try it. Find someone who isn't a direct competitor, who already sells to the same customers you want to sell to. Contact them and offer to joint venture with them. They provide their list, or agree to send a mailing...

    Your First 100 Million by Dan Pena

    BOOKS 
    On the other hand, I pirated TMF, got halfway through, and bought a legit copy for Kindle. Then I bought 3 hard copies to give away. It's a double edged sword.
