    The Dangers of Affiliate Marketing (The Pentamillionaire Story).....

    MARKETING 
    Funny all the hate for affiliate marketing when that is essentially what limos.com did and made MJ a millionaire. Unless I'm reading MJ's book incorrectly, Limos.com did not own limousines, employ drivers of limos, nor did it take orders directly for limo rides while MJ owned it. Instead...

    Anyone prep for collapse? Your life contingency plans...[Doomsday Prepping]

    OFF-TOPIC 
    If you are preparing for a long collapse, look at a place like ferfal.com -- a blog by a person living through Argentina's currency collapse. A lot of the "survivalist" stuff you see on the internet is either recycled Cold War-era hide-in-a-bunker-with-MREs-and-guns (e.g. anything by or based...

    Dane Maxwell- Build Software Companies in 6 months w/o money, experience

    HOT! 
    Pat Flynn at SPI went to the dark side a while ago. He started out legit selling real information to a real audience (how to pass the LEED Exam). Then he morphed himself into another shovel-shelling Goo-Roo separating the dreamers from their money. Edit: These Goo-Roos don't sell...

    Ask me anything about eCommerce (2012)

    GOLD! 
    So you're basically admitting that organic SEO doesn't work because Google doesn't want it to work. Which is why you have to resort to name calling Matt Cutts--who DOES know what he's talking about given that HE WORKS FOR GOOGLE (remember, the search engine you claim to be able to game). So...

    NBA Player Loses $110 Million on Real Estate - How to Avoid His Mistakes

    REAL ESTATE 
    Sellers are financing without requiring personal guarantees???? How much equity has to be put into the deal to get this treatment? If you say I can buy property, seller-financed, no-money down and no personal guarantee, then you probably have a bridge to sell me as well....

    5 ways to piss off an entrepreneur...

    If you are an adult and your girlfriend wants to blaze up on a Tuesday afternoon (I'm assuming by "smoke" you mean weed, not a cigarette), you need a new girlfriend NOW.

    401k's and Social Security....Failing

    FAILURE 
    The bankruptcy protection alone is worth putting money into a 401(k), especially if you have your own company and can choose which provider to use and what investment choices you have. It's nice knowing that even if everything goes completely to hell for me financially, and I have to go through...

    Massive Action

    MINDSET 
    One of my fears to taking action is that I'll do a bunch of work, but I won't get the results I'm looking for and be disappointed in myself and look like a fool. As if it's okay to fail if you didn't try anything; but if you try and still fail you're a loser. Intellectually I know that's bad...

    GOLD! 
    The only way to know is to test and track. Every niche is different. Every audience is different. Craigslist is a filthy, dirty mess from any user-interface standpoint. A drunk monkey could do better. But it converts and works with its audience. There are a million "clean" template sites...

    Got a great opportunity offered today ACN ! Please criticize

    HOT! 
    If you want to get rich via My Two Dads, you need to do as he did, not as he says. The content of his books is complete garbage. The method he used to market that garbage is genius. Don't confuse one for the other (not the MJ is confused; but some readers out there are).

    Creating an Ecommerce Website - from nothing to functional

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    This is how you sell a candle (or really, any niche product): H20 Water Candle Kits: Create colorful candles with water and cooking oil. Their 1 minute video for a candle has 500,000 Youtube views. If you don't put that kind of effort into your product descriptions, you can't compete with...

    Amanda Hocking's bank account would beg to differ...

    That's just what they tell the IRS :smxB: But seriously, many businesses will show $0 profit because: 1. They paid out the profit to the owner (and employees who are relatives) in the form of salaries or untaxed benefits. 2. The business is done on the side and all "profits" (free cash...

    The secret that was left out of The Millionaire Fast Lane Book

    EXECUTION GOLD! 
    The internet and especially social media makes word of mouth infinitely more powerful than in the past. The best advertising has been, is, and will be Word of Mouth. 10 years ago, if my wife liked a product, she might tell 2 or 3 people verbally, and they'd probably forget about it before...
