One thing, that I haven't seen mentioned in this thread, is that you know how to market products and services. When you start your own business, this will be HUGE for you.
This is exactly why I've started out in AM now. As I mentioned in Nosferatu's AMA (the other beginner one thats been up for a couple months here), a LOT of people coming from AM have gone fastlane after having mastered how to market properly through various traffic sources and niches. While the business in itself sucks, IMO it can give one a worthwhile experience if one takes the time to explore all sides of the business and become proficient at them. Of course not only is this a sort of "training" for someone who is starting out in online business, but if you're half decent you can "earn on the job" and start scooping up a nice chunk of change to fund your actual fastlane ventures once you're ready to fully commit to them- pretty much what the OP has done except he's been in the AM game for longer than most
