    3D Printing as a business...does it make CENTS?

    HOT! 
    I run a hobby business that sells 3-D printed plastic parts as art and for fix/repair. I don't make much profit and the time investment can be considerable, I do it because it's a learning experience and is part of the process of something bigger that I am going for down the road. Scalability...

    Recommended software to write books (MAC)

    BOOKS 
    I've been using Scrivener now steadily (thank you for that recommendation). Every day I have been writing a few paragraphs and developing chapters. I am up to about 15,000 words now, and feel like I am just getting started. The more I write, the more new ideas pop into my head to bolster my...

    Thoughts on this rental I own

    Well...Look at the positive. You are probably making 6% tax free. Mine are 10-12% cash-on-cash. I've been looking for that 15% ROI "great" deal and will continue to do so. I would rather have cash tied up in property than a 401K/Simple, but only above 8-10% cash-on-cash. If you used MJ's...

    Thoughts on this rental I own

    You are below the 1% general rule of thumb, which would make it a bad deal for me. However, 4.125% was a smoking rate on a 30-yr non-owner occupied note (my last deal was 5.125% 30-yr but that house was under 100k and the lower the value, the higher the interest rate), so that makes up for some...

    I have plenty of experience with Word, but think I'll try out Scrivener just because it will let me rearrange ideas and throw in random thoughts as I think things through. Thank you again for your response!

    I've Read UNSCRIPTED!

    GOLD! HOT! 
    Just received the book a few days ago and through the first few chapters. Amazing, hilarious, unhinged, and my new favorite @MJ DeMarco. I gave it to my 12-year old and he started cranking through random chapters. He couldn't believe what he was reading. He said his head was hurting. No one...

    I've Read The Millionaire Fastlane!

    GOLD! HOT! 
    As I was reading the first chapters, I kept laughing about the descriptions of Sidewalkers, and thought about how many of them I knew....Then I started reading about Slowlaners and in the first two pages you described my characteristics to perfection. My jaw dropped (I also dropped the book)...

    Tired of making others wealthy

    INTRO 
    I have lived in multiple locations in the USA (both coasts) and now reside in the South.

I started my own company several years ago as a side excursion - but failed to dedicate any...
