    I am betrayed and want to kill myself

    Hey fastlaners. In my second year of college wanted to kill myself. Fortunately my friend convinced me to come down and attend therapy sessions. After some I attended so therapy session and it sounded like my parents were ok with it. However when I went back to my college. My college is ranked...

    First Fastlane Month, Feels Amazing! $65,000+ Revenue Pre-tax

    TheOdinProject is a great resource. @GrayCode is it still relevant to learn ruby on the back end? Would I be better off with python or java? I'm in nyc, but a lot of the job listings do NOT list ruby as a requirement, but do list python or some other language.

    Atlas Shrugged Week 1: Ch 1-2

    HOT! 
    We should definitely compare it the American era of trains. I think our main characters are supposed to represent those wealthy tycoons from the 1900s like Carnegie and Rochefeller. It does seem to follow with a lot of the stuff that happened in the US in the 20th century.

    There's still one important character we haven't mentioned yet. Paul Larkin is Hank's "friend" who is a very unsuccessful business man. He's been changing industries his whole life and has not had much success. So he comes to Hank for advice and companionship because he's way more successful...

    Atlas Shrugged Week 1: Ch 1-2

    HOT! 
    Chapter 2 made me really angry. Rearden supports his brother through college, doesn't pressure him to work or do anything really, yet all he gets from him is resentment? He provides his mother with everything she needs and more and gives her a place in his home, but somehow he has always been...

    MorningRod - What do you think about my invention?

    Hey I saw this on reddit today. It looks really similar to what you have made. Ah nevermind, I think this might be your post judging from the app. View: https://www.reddit.com/r/functionalprint/comments/d6e3rs/i_wanted_my_blinds_to_open_and_close/

    Hey guys! What would be an example of a big task for you? @Fox already mentioned writing 3000 words (Which sounds like a lot of writing for one day) and I am curious to see what kind of tasks you guys set out to finish. I am also interested in how you guys spend your days. I am still in...

    Best University for improving ourselves.

    Actually right now I am doing kind of what @Fox recommends. I recently dropped out of prestigious university and transferred to a much less difficult public university. Consequently, I have a lot more free time as a result. In that free time, I read and take notes on air pollution (my field of...

    Best University for improving ourselves.

    I disagree. Honestly a university degree is becoming so useless. As long as you have one, you can get a great job. The name does not really matter any more.

    Should I leave a chill job for more money?

    It sounds like you answered your own question. Stay at your chill job and work on your side hustles. Saving an extra 100K is not going to make you a millionaire as fast as starting your own Fastlane business. Especially if you have less time to grow your businesses.

    Just bought the book Good Profit. The firestorm on reddit made me more curious about the Koch brothers. Are they as bad as these anonymous redditors make them out to be? Reading David Koch's Wikipedia page didn't really give me much. Just sounds like another John D. Rochefeller to be honest. And...

    Great Book!

    Wow great progress bro. I also read a lot and I think I could benefit from Rawseed said. I'm guilty of not wanting to reread a book after I've finished. After all, I've already read it. But I honestly don't get much out of my first read, so I'm going to start forcing myself to reread books from...

    @njord lol bro. I'm actually tempted right now. But I see your point. What I mean is that 2 minutes in the grand scheme of your life is nothing, but those two minutes could give opportunity. You have so much more to gain than lose by taking the chance and sticking with the pain. And the thing...

    Fastlane as a CS student. How do I maximize my time in college

    Anybody here studying CS in college? I recently transferred from Mech Engineering to CS just because I think you can fastlane it better. Any advice for someone who's going to be stuck in college for 3 more years. I'd also appreciate some discussion in this thread to the amount fastlane...

    Calling All Direct Mail Marketters (Need some advice)

    Thanks @Dan_Cardone for taking the time to write this post. I'm going to read The Robert Collier Letter Book and The Ultimate Sales Letter (Dan Kennedy) and take good notes. Once I finish, I'll be able to consider your questions more carefully and ask more specific questions.

    2 minutes is nothing. Our job as thinking beings is to control the lizard inside our heads. We are all geniuses because we have two brains. The newer neocortex which does all the smart thinking and the lizard brain which responds to primitive but important stimuli (fear, sex). The lizard brain...
