    Marketing and Selling your book : Large Niche Market 1 million+

    MARKETING 
    MJ, I just logged in again and saw I hadn't responded, so sorry for the late reply. Since we just got two books released (two more are forthcoming), I really couldn't have given you an accurate response anyway until now. Using CreateSpace, our costs are $3.97/book for a 250 page book, and the...

    Like eveyone else, need advice ASAP Fear of the "Slow Lane"

    HOT! 
    First, let me say I think it is a great idea. We have basically been in a recession since 2008, and I don't think its going to get much better soon. People need to learn how to save money. The whole extreme couponing thing is big right now. I agree with the posters that say for you to charge...

    Marketing and Selling your book : Large Niche Market 1 million+

    MARKETING 
    Edmund, The Well-Fed Self-Publisher touches on what it takes to be a publisher, such as designing, distributing, marketing, etc but in general here is what we did to become a publisher: - We registered an ISBN for our book under our own name (Theta Storm Press). Createspace allows you to...

    what should i study in college?

    Unless you are paying for college with a trust fund that will ensure you are comfortable for life, study something that is economically useful (i.e. that will allow you to get a job, start your own business, etc, after graduation). I would also suggest finding an inexpensive state college and...

    Marketing and Selling your book : Large Niche Market 1 million+

    MARKETING 
    My business partners and I are in the process of writing, promoting, and publishing three books, and we are exploring the same things you are. We started our own publishing company (Theta Storm Press) and are using Create Space to print our books. There are a few books I would recommend for...

    Best books related to MJ's book?

    I think it depends on what you are looking for and what your needs are. Millionaire Fastlane should provide you with the proper philosophy about how to become a millionaire. There aren't many other books out there that do that, and MF is the best of the bunch. However, one that I liked a lot...

    What book are you reading? Right now. Post up!

    NOTABLE! HOT! BOOKS CHAT 
    I am not reading it now, but I would always recommend Effortless Entrepreneur by Friedman and Soliman. They are the guys that started the junk hauling business "College Hunks Hauling Junk." Like many of us, including MJ, they took one look at what corporate life offers (long hours, giving your...

    How to live cheap, during start up thread

    HOT! 
    Food: If there is one in your area, shop at Aldi. I recently bought eggs for less than a dollar a dozen and milk for under $2.00 a gallon. For staples, like these foods, fresh vegetables, meats, etc, they can't be beat. In Ohio, their prices are always better than Wal-Mart. They even have quite...

    Recession warnings on the rise

    INVESTING 
    The good news from our recent downturn (which for most of Main Street has pretty much felt like a recession since 2008), is that more and more Americans are questioning the slowlane and sidewalk. When things are going "well" it is easier to take it you know where from your company, boss...

    Thoughts on Marriage/Kids and the Fastlane dream

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Personally, I think it just depends. Marriage isn't for everybody, and if you are a fastlaner, and an intelligent idea guy/gal, then being legally and emotionally bound to a sidewalker would not only be bad for your business, but bad for your life! I am married and my wife supports my...

    I am Confused

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Unfortunately, I have found the same thing: people rarely donate online. You could help them immensely but they don't make the connection that *you,* not some faceless website, have given them something life changing. I haven't tried these ideas, but based on research done by Robert Cialdini...

    PhD in Entrepreneurship-Thoughts and feedback greatly appreciated

    Being familiar (too familiar...now that I am thinking like a fastlaner) with higher education, I will give you my take. Personally, I am suspicious of academic degrees like this. Most successful novel writers didn't get degrees in creative writing. Most famous musicians didn't spend $100,000 at...

    $80K in Student Loans... Now What?

    LadyMillionaire, I just noticed you were working with an Indian Developer, so my suggestion of Odesk is probably something you already know about. At any rate, good luck with your new venture!

    $80K in Student Loans... Now What?

    It is difficult for those of us who entered Indentured Servitude when we were younger to start fresh later. I am paying off student loans myself, and have had to get over some anger at my dumb past decisions. I am definitely spreading the word that college is quickly becoming a scam for most...

    I've Read The Millionaire Fastlane!

    GOLD! HOT! 
    I really appreciate the Millionaire Fastlane. It solidified some of the thoughts I was having, and helped me develop some new ideas and get a new perspective on both wealth and work. I grew up believing that money was difficult to earn, and that the secret to getting rich was going to college...
