    Good question, @guidaccio05. Eventually to build something that cash flows without needing constant surveillance, either by way of rental properties or a business. It's still a work-in-progress for me.

    Update - 01/19/2020 Hi Fastlaners, I've been gone quite a while... again. After moving back to Florida, I've been working on getting my capital back in order, and thinking about my next moves and what I really want out of life. Admittedly, not much has happened in terms of my professional...

    From Nothing To Everything - My Journey

    EXECUTION 
    Not all, but a lot do. Typically what I do is look for smaller jobs that I can finish very quickly (1-2 days), and complete all of the requirements up to expectation. This allows me to show my value and start to build the relationships. I also make sure to keep the client 100% informed of my...

    EXECUTION 
    I'll clarify since it sounds worse than it is haha. The client found me on Upwork, we set up a contract, I did some work for them, and ended the contract shortly after. The client wanted to pay outside of Upwork due to the service fees for the contractor (me), so they contacted me outside of...

    Thanks! To answer your questions - unfortunately, Quora has cracked down on this sort of thing. Every time I would answer questions and put pingbacks to my own website, they would take down my answer. I don't use an Agency account, but I do work with clients outside of Upwork for continuous...

    Am I right in thinking that the BIGGEST / BEST secrets to wealth are still a secret?

    MINDSET 
    This. I don't think there are any "secrets" per se. What separates people from being financially wealthy is their inability to do the necessary work to get to that point, with whatever vehicle they choose to get there. Many people give up before they ever get to that point. In one of his...

    How to deal with unpaid invoices?

    NOTABLE! PEOPLE 
    See... I can fully understand that. Prompt response and/or offering a reason why is perfectly acceptable to me. But here's how it usually goes down: I send the invoice with NET15 terms per our original agreement, the 15 days inevitably end, and then I send the daily reminders for multiple days...

    How to deal with unpaid invoices?

    NOTABLE! PEOPLE 
    Hi Fastlaners, I'm curious your thoughts on the topic of your clients paying your invoices late. I know I'm not the only one that deals with this, so I wanted to see how others address it. One of my client's who I do some consulting for one day a week has been late on paying my invoices twice...

    Can't tell you how much this hits home. I've been having some pretty depressing thoughts lately, likely causing my reticular activating system to make this post stick out to me hah. Anyways, you're dead on with how it feels to be an entrepreneur. All of it is completely new to me, having lived...

    Forex Trading

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    I used to trade Forex earlier this year. I studied for 6+ months, learning different strategies, all of the basics, etc. I even took a couple of courses on it just to see what other people look for and base their trades off of. Technical analysis + some fundamental was my strategy of choice...
