    I'm a fifteen year old kid who posted here more than one year ago. Here's what I've been up to.

    NOTABLE! FTE 
    I'm a big time lurker but definitely second this. My slowlane job is currently insurance sales and its the first time a huge portion of my lead generation/production/income was dependent on cold calling. Yes, I get people to tell me to F*ck off, people screaming at me, people trying to...

    Slowlane job question; which offer do I take?

    SLOWLANE 
    Wow I love the knowledge in this community. So many questions I didn’t even consider for such a big decision. After digesting what everyone said I’m going to go with option one. If i’m gonna bust my a$$ for 80 hours a week it will be for myself and not for someone else. Working 35-40 will...

    Slowlane job question; which offer do I take?

    SLOWLANE 
    This is where I am leaning due to precisely what you mention. However playing devils advocate, now is the time in my life to take higher risk opportunities. Thanks everyone for the advice thus far. I’m not a snowflake (see that here way too much) so I am 100% ok with constructive...

    Slowlane job question; which offer do I take?

    SLOWLANE 
    Nothing. I’ve been in sales for 9 years so both jobs say “Bachelors strongly recommended” but someone with a strong insurance background can get in without. Maybe it helped that i have 3 years of college and am close to a degree. Couldn’t really tell you but I like to think I am good at...

    Slowlane job question; which offer do I take?

    SLOWLANE 
    They didn’t mention it during hiring process but they did strongly imply that since I would be one of the first employees that moving high up (aka director, vp type shit) would be on the table soon depending on my hustle and performance. I will ask tomorrow but I should have asked already.

    Slowlane job question; which offer do I take?

    SLOWLANE 
    Hey everyone. Looking for advice on two job offers I have on my plate right now. 1. Option one is a basic 9-5 type job with an established insurance company. Offer is $110k with benefits, etc. In suburbs so low cost of living. 2. Option two is one of the fastest growing insurance startups in...

    Happy New Year? I just threw up?

    Some 20something girl sings for 20 mins... 00:00 hits, New York screams Frank sinatra is played on the loud speakers What are we cheering? New Years is a fabricated day for people to generate false hope that dies out almost instantaneously. What do you guys think about this ritual? I tuned...

    Find and search for accountability partners

    MEETUPS 
    I think its more along the lines of we would help each other by sharinig what works, what doesnt work, etc. Not just someone to hold hands with. Also having a 2nd opinion on what you're doing isn't (always) a bad thing.

    I saw it in my dreams

    HOT! MINDSET 
    I also dreamed I F*cked Taylor Swift. The idea may be good but remember it's the PROCESS not the idea that is most important. Good luck.

    Sorry, Bernie lost this year. Try again in 2020 for "free college".

    How much YouTubers REALLY make.

    Exactly this. I have friends and family who make decent money on YouTube and this is a big no-no. If you want a generalistic answer you get about $1 per 1,000 video views.

    Getting Into Real Estate With No Money

    What kind of boat is needed for wholesailing? Sounds like it would be fun! All jokes aside there are some opportunities to get involved with little capital. I forgot who posted it but there is a great thread about buying a 2/3/4 plex with only 3.5% down.

    How hard is it?

    Before jumping in to your plan I'd recommend reading The Millionaire Fastlane. I hear it's pretty well received here. It will give you a better understanding and a better chance for success. Welcome to the forums

    She said "you are so lucky"

    Yes sir. Hope you read TMF but one of the first thing MJ notes is that slow-laners think we need "Luck". This is a huge slow lane trap... not about being "lucky" but our execution. Maybe loan her a copy of the book, who knows where it will take you :)

    16 yr old aspiring to make an impact

    INTRO 
    Welcome to the forum. My advice to you is READ! This forum, books, articles, just take in everything you can. Try to leverage your education and MAKE it better. They aren't teaching you anything worthwhile in High-school so create your own adventure :) Good luck!
