    I Dropped Out of College and Bought a Porsche. Here’s How.

    FEATURED! 
    My (totally unqualified and not to be taken as official medical advice) suggestion would be to start with a basic psychiatrist. The cost will range from $0 to a few hundred depending on things like insurance and choice of practitioner. DM me if you want to talk more about it!

    Appreciate the very justified question! If you check my response to MJ, the "brokenness" was in reference to business operation, not personal finances. Thanks for reading!

    I Dropped Out of College and Bought a Porsche. Here’s How.

    FEATURED! 
    While there are a few books I'll recommend (Secrets of Closing the Sale, the Like Switch, and the Charisma Myth), PLEASE do not make the mistake of confusing reading with working. I've gotten trapped in that cycle of letting myself feel good about "productive procrastination" too many times to...

    I Dropped Out of College and Bought a Porsche. Here’s How.

    FEATURED! 
    Hey MJ, thanks for the kind words and very warranted advice! A few things I didn't mention before: I had no car to begin with (to help save) and desperately needed one, and I actually got this car for way less than most people spend on "normal" ones... but I figured the title could use some...

    I Dropped Out of College and Bought a Porsche. Here’s How.

    FEATURED! 
    Part Two I always had problems with staying consistent. There’d be periods of a few weeks or months where I’d start new companies, read like my life depended on it, stick to 5am morning routines, and generally love everything. And then I’d do nothing for a couple months and F*ck up all the...

    I Dropped Out of College and Bought a Porsche. Here’s How.

    FEATURED! 
    I'll close the loop soon, I promise! Thanks for reading. The thing that has surprised me most was the absurd power of asking for a referral. I'd say 50% or more of my new business has stemmed from just asking a happy client if they know anyone that could benefit from what I do. Of course, this...

    I Dropped Out of College and Bought a Porsche. Here’s How.

    FEATURED! 
    First, a word of reassurance: I didn’t do it by selling that headline or any other coaching bullshit (and never will, God willing), so no need to worry about any forthcoming offer to buy my "usually $1999, now just $79 Exclusive Training System”. I did it by screwing up to the point that the...

    Getting (Re)Started...3 years later

    EXECUTION 
    Early update post: Today I decided on the niche I'm going to test! Did a lot of keyword research and math. Turns out that the products I'm going to test, even with maximum cost per unit and the max end of CPA estimates, would have margins better than 55% at a price point that's still lower...

    Getting (Re)Started...3 years later

    EXECUTION 
    When I was 18, deep in the throes of an existential crisis, I stumbled upon a website that recommended The Millionaire Fastlane. After reading the incredible Amazon reviews, I bought it for my Kindle right after dinner. I finished it before I went to bed that night. I still remember the...

    The sidewalk

    Your profile picture is you squatting. As such, I'm going to assume you also deadlift. Remember when you first started lifting? I don't know about you, but I went gung-ho on the deadlift, and stupidly decided that gloves were only for pussies. As a result, I tore the shit out of my hands...

    Taking on the BIG guys

    EXECUTION 
    When you first sign up for an account, the notification says "Welcome to AceMyHomework!". A quick google search reveals that zerolancer and AceMyHomework are basically *exactly* the same, down to the names of the front page testimonies. Did you build both? Or did you copy someone else's?

    I am 100% with you on the "MLM people suck a$$" front and they do tend to get angry when you mention the inherent flaws of their model. But I'd propose that non-MLMers, especially those like myself that have previously been ruthlessly screwed over in my naïveté by the same, might also feel...

    Also, to those interested in the future: If you're seeing this, I've maxed out how many I can feasibly work with for the time being, but if you're still interested feel free to still shoot me a message and I'll keep you in mind if I need new guys.

    For Those That Need A Side Hustle:

    MARKETING 
    Thanks for your piercing insight. There's a few problems, though: 1) I'm under no obligation to disclose anything, and my unwillingness to do so publicly tells a rational person absolutely nothing about what I do. 2) Commission-based sales doesn't equal the "residual" touted by MLMs. If you'd...

    Hit a wall in the start-up, need helpful advice!

    I, too, have an obsession with "planning", probably to the point where it could be considered a disease. I've screwed up more business ideas more times than I can count because of it. So, having wasted lots of time and lots of money, my biggest piece of advice to you is: Stop planning...

    I appreciate the hypothetical and opportunity for me to figure out my response in advance. As it turns out, there are plenty of other avenues for hiring, and I posted this here because I really do want to help bring up members of a community that I've personally benefitted from so much. So to...
