    Naval Ravikant on seeking wealth and not money.

    I recently came across Naval Ravikant while listening to one of Joe Rogan's podcasts. He's an entrepreneur and angel investor, a co-author of Venture Hacks, and the founder of AngelList. He's a very clear thinker and his beliefs perfectly align with what MJ preaches. I've linked a video of his...

    Is your business idea a monster that eats people to poop out money so you can be okay?

    IDEA MINDSET 
    This applies to how I thought about business ideas for a long time (means-to-endism). Does it sound familiar to you as well? View: https://youtu.be/jO6JjQ8TJSc Source: Michael Neill. He's a "transformative coach" and author of Creating the Impossible and The Inside-Out Revolution.

    Why am I here?

    INTRO 
    I'm Sully. So, 25 years into life and 'this feeling' hasn't left me since my first job (age 16). That first job was in quality control for a spray painting factory and yes, it was as boring as it sounds. Literally, watching paint dry. 'This feeling' I'm referring to, is of course the same...

    Can't Wait To Tell My Boss I Quit

    INTRO 
    This might be too familiar, but this is my reality. I'm a High School Teacher in Vancover BC, Canada, and there is no single day I don't tell myself I'm done with this. I'm still under 30 and I can feel the entrepreneurial fire burning strong in my veins. Reading Millionaire's Fastlane, I was...

    Finally... Money CAN Buy Happiness.

    MINDSET 
    Been saying it for years, but the reasoned argument never can make it beyond the noise of the Mainstream Media who wants you to be a compliant and mindless drone who accepts the 9-to-5, Just-Over-Broke paradigm. I'm only upset that I wasn't asked to contribute...

    Real estate or Entrepreneurship ?

    Hi! After reading an article (in French for those who wants: Devenir rentier : La stratégie la plus efficace), a question is in my mind. Although sometimes discussed on this forum, I did not see any topic entirely devoted to. Here it is: In my case, and aiming for financial freedom, which...

    From Bureaucrat to Billionaire

    INTRO 
    That's the goal. Well, sort of. It's really more like: create something of value, lend to government, retire.. but "bureaucrat to billionaire" sounds way cooler. About me: Grew up in south Jersey, my heart is in Colorado, currently an accountant for the Air Force and (finally) finishing my...

    HOT! MINDSET 
    Yep, just bought a house. Is it a super sexy house that will have hordes of women knocking on my door, oogling at my new abode? Nope, not really. It's an older house and has some work that needs to be done with it. (Drywalling, updating the HVAC system, and tearing out the shagadelic calico...

    Up and down: what happens after a full blown existential crisis?

    FTE INTRO 
    I had just turned 18 when I begun working as a web developer for a local start-up. I had no idea what to expect. Previously, I used to code at home 13 hours a day. No, not because I was passionate about it, although I didn't hate it either. I did it because I had to. External factors forced me...

    The unscripted fastlane dream: "I have 99 problems, but money ain't one!".

    Slowlaners are chained to what they think as only possible way to live if not born lucky or winning the lottery (where the money will be burnt down again for slowlaners and sidewalkers). Imagine, a problem that 99% of mankind has is not one if your 99 problems! Your supply of money is...
