    Do You Discount to Friends and Family?

    Yes I will give discounts to family and friends, even for free if I can. The reason is because some of the best referrals you will get will come from family and friends. They genuinely want to help and are usually your best supporters. When they truly believe in you they will tell people they...

    Dan Lok failed 13 times in business? How did he recover?

    EXECUTION 
    Well I'm very glad that you aren't in charge of this forum. If you were to start your own forum and implement that rule your forum would consist of nothing but guru get rich quick think positive and you'll make billions circlejerk posts. Look, you've been very defensive when it comes to...

    Dan Lok failed 13 times in business? How did he recover?

    EXECUTION 
    Investing in a business ≠ Running a business And when Cuban is on podcasts/tv/radio to pitch products they are actual products. And he has an actual track record of starting successful businesses.....and when you look for businesses Lok runs you don't find anything but his courses.

    Dan Lok failed 13 times in business? How did he recover?

    EXECUTION 
    What businesses is he running? How can anyone actually running "several" businesses have time to spend giving motivational talks and "helping others" on youtube? Especially when in addition to "running several businesses" he's also selling additional amounts of his time in the form of multi-hour...

    Thoughts on "Crushing It" - Gary Vaynerchuk (2018)?

    I see what you're saying. I think he likes the attention gained by giving the motivational talks, but I don't think he's necessarily attempting to turn into Tony Robbins. I feel that instead, what he is doing is simply a tactic to grow his marketing business. As I said earlier, he's probably...

    How deep does this "FAKE GURU" market actually go?

    HOT! 
    This is what I'm trying to say! These guys are terrible. What frustrates me is when I hear people, even on forums like this, preach that there is something to learn from their tactics. There is nothing to learn from them. When you think of it, they are big fish in small ponds. Take someone...

    How deep does this "FAKE GURU" market actually go?

    HOT! 
    They are obviously in the marketing business. But marketing nothing in particular and being good at it is called selling snake oil. Who cares if they are good at marketing if they are only using it to sell snake oil? I don't think anyone here is under the impression that the gurus are on these...

    How deep does this "FAKE GURU" market actually go?

    HOT! 
    Hahaha how about every one of them? Wholesaling real estate might be the biggest guru scam of them all. Wholesaling is something that can very well make people a lot of money. But those people are people with DEEP industry knowledge and YEARS of experience in a very specific market. They must...

    How deep does this "FAKE GURU" market actually go?

    HOT! 
    The guru rabbit hole goes deep. Anyone willing to lend their name out in order to sell something helps contribute. As was said in here earlier, Mark Cuban isn't creating guru courses. That being said, he is willing to sit down and use Tai Lopez's platform to sell products "build his brand". This...

    Does Every Multimillionaire / Billionaire Lose Touch With Reality?

    PEOPLE HOT! 
    This post was the perfect way to describe it. I grew up in a family that was flat broke. Like no money, the only time my parents argued when I was growing up was over money, and it sure wasn't because they had too much of it. So throughout all of my life I viewed problems through the lens of...

    Thoughts on "Crushing It" - Gary Vaynerchuk (2018)?

    Yes, I remember finding him when he first started doing his askgaryvee shows and having his guy following him around filming him everyday. He would always state that he didn't want to be a motivational guru and was only about giving real, actionable advice. That being said, I can't recall any...

    Poker Pro: Increasing My Financial Literacy to Create the Life I Want

    INTRO 
    There isn't much to be said in here that hasn't already been said, but I would like to add that the first time I ever really thought about investing/creating other sources of income outside of poker was from an old DeucePlays podcast. It was one of the Limon episodes. I'm not sure which one but...

    The worst book I ever read was..

    HOT! 
    It's funny how different I felt from others in this topic when I first read Let There Be Range. That book totally changed everything about how I viewed NLH/PLO. I absolutely loved it. And I do feel that when it came out it was worth the price, you'd make your money back in a day applying the...

    Hi there, each action I take feels like I'm wasting my time and action faking

    INTRO 
    Definitely don't take what I said as fact. I want to be clear and state that I don't know anything at all about web dev as a business, or even as a freelancer. I work in a closely related field (IT Consulting) and like I said in my other post I needed some web dev knowledge to work on a...

    Hi there, each action I take feels like I'm wasting my time and action faking

    INTRO 
    I think its awesome that at 15 you are already thinking this way. When I was 15 Halo 3 came out and I didn't care about anything but getting good at Halo. I currently have a 15 year old cousin that only cares about two things in the world right now...girls and Fortnite. You may have pissed away...

    I've Read UNSCRIPTED!

    GOLD! HOT! 
    I started Unscripted Friday night and finished it last night. Was an amazing read with life changing advice and was written in a way that keeps you entertained and laughing the whole way through. Just as much of an overall mindset book as it is a business book. I started going to the gym in...

    I've Read The Millionaire Fastlane!

    GOLD! HOT! 
    I read TMF back in January and loved every minute of it. Back on the forums after finally getting around to reading unscripted. Binge-read the whole thing cover to cover this weekend. These books are really the only two business/finance/mindset books anyone needs.
