    NOTABLE! 
    @csalvato You have been around a while. You're an Insider and you have access to Jack's Insider Conference Call (I thought it was good and credible). Jack provided many a phone calls to help others and he attended the C&B earlier this year, allowed access to himself and even presented. Let's...

    My Firsthand Example of WHY You Should NEVER Do What You Love; and It’s Not What You Think.

    GOLD! MINDSET 
    After reading The Fastlane Millionaire I look at doing what you love a little different. I think most people, that do what they love, try to build a business around the "doing" part of what they love instead of looking at it as a true entrepreneur would. After all, that is what slowlane...

    Any Christians here?

    PEOPLE HOT! 
    Realize people view what is righteous, or not, based on there own interpretations or impressions. Realize the bible was written in a different language and translated and reinterpreted many times. Some words don't translate well or have the same meaning today as they did in the culture over...

    Why doesn't this work?

    EXECUTION 
    Are you aware that most people go to pharmacies where their insurance provider provides them the best price? Find a solution to the health insurance problem and everyone wins! Please, do it in my lifetime though.

    What is your personality? Find it out with a quick test!

    NOTABLE! MINDSET 
    This test shows me as an INFJ which does not describe me accurately at all. I took the test below (free too), a few times, and I felt it nailed me accurately as an ISTJ. That is what I have always tested as in the past...

    My Wife is a total sidewalker, any advice?

    HOT! 
    You can't change people, they can only change themselves and you can only change yourself. Take long walks, discuss what she wants, and how both of can get their together.

    Money is Not Everything

    NOTABLE! EXECUTION 
    Based what I read here, perhaps this would have been better titled "Money is not a Religion" or Money is not your legacy." Very good comments here and my summary of what I've read here. There is more to life than just any one thing. Money is one thing that may provide many external things and...

    Finding and sticking to something?

    MINDSET 
    @Kyle Tully is on target but your response leaves me the impression that in your mind, you are starting at the end (creating wealth) and working it backwards to creating an idea. I'm not clear on what your motivation is, wealth or feeling of accomplishment. I assume your goal is both. See if...

    Oil and Gas Field?

    Look around, what piece of equipment must they have but they don't own? Buy that equipment, get it where they are going to start production and be responsible for maintaining it for a hefty price. Get your money back in one year and the rest is profit. There are opportunities, you just are...

    Introduction: Ampers&d; Mixing Fastlane and Fame

    INTRO 
    I also voted for #5 because I think there is a lot of upside to creating a following. For example: I always thought a talented songwriter that made his services available for us common untalented people could benefit in providing us a "special song" for that special someone or occasion. I...

    Apartment Investing

    REAL ESTATE 
    Great advice Steve! In my pursuit of a first good buy, first thing I look at is a good cap. I will look at things differently now. Just finished Berges book and ordered Vollucci's book. I like the strategy of value play and your success in implementation inspires me.

    Your parents are trying to give you direction they don't think you have. They mean well. :rolleyes: Are they paying or just pushing? Nice start.;)

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

    NOTABLE! HOT! BOOKS CHAT 
    Agree! @Era you bring up good points. I would add that an introvert can become less introverted, however they will still have introverted tendencies because, well that is who they are. Learning to engage others instead of just listening to others engage is something introverts need to work...

    Building apartments.

    REAL ESTATE 
    It certainly can be fastlane, if done right. There are ways to still build a fastlane business in real estate with less entry. Instead of a GOAL to build apartments, I have a goal to maximize my ROI through multifamily units. There are multiple ways to do this a fastlane way. Pick a way...

    how much reading before action

    Are you still looking?

    I heard this in a speech from the late Jim Rohn. I thought it was worth posting. Jim Rohn: “What is the most important question you will ever be asked?” “Have you found the opportunity that is going to take care of you and your family for the rest of your life?” “What is the second most...

    "Do not reinvent the wheel"

    Look, keep it simple. I agree with Jack, there are a ton of things that are out there, and have been for some time, people have made millions off of (AKA:"old industry"). Instead of coming up with something new (re-inventing the wheel) take one of those "things" and find a way to sell it...
