Hi guys,

glad to be here. My name is Andei. Purchased The Millionaire Fastlane book about 3-4 months ago, and it was sitting in my bookshelf waiting for me :) Just wished I'd pick it up earlier. Tons of gold nuggets in the book. MJ could easily created online course and sell it for thousands of dollars, no kidding. I've read lots of books, went over some courses online from big gurus, but this is the first time I really enjoyed book from cover to cover and I will be reading it over and over again many times in the future, because it is that good! Great job, MJ, excellent! Thank you.

As for myself I am 34 years old living in suburbs of Los Angeles. Originally from Ukraine. My story started when I moved to USA at 19 years old. I went to school here, got BS degree in computer science and mathematics and got a job at very solid software company in California. They sponsored my work visa and life was candid :) Though at heart I am an entrepreneur. I remember buying and selling bubblegum at very early age, then after high-school graduation I manufactured my own newspaper for teenagers and was organizer of youth movement in my home town of Sevastopol (organized couple hip-hop events). When I moved to USA I was focused on my education, paying my school tuition (no debt after graduation) and getting job to stay here.

Once it was achieved I started working on a website (in 2005) that offered cars from USA to Russian and Ukrainian markets. It took me two years to make first sale. 2008 was a blast, 2009-2010 was bad, 2011-2013 was excellent, and then in 2014 it just all went to nowhere, economy in Russia collapsed, there is war in Ukraine,,,and I got a job back at the same software company to pay mortgage and feed kids. I did nothing for 6 months, I was tired, broke, and escaped reality many nights just playing computer games.

In early 2015 I saw Tai Lopez youtube video, it caught my attention, and I've purchased his 67 steps. This thing got me going. Since then I read tens of books, got to couple seminars, lost 25 lbs, and the most important part I started working on organizing my mind. I believe right now the reason I did not achieve Fastlane success with my business was due to lack of GRAND end-goal and the business had all 5 fastlane commandments in place! Dang it :) I always thought it would be nice to have a side business, to make extra cash, buy house/car, buy couple rental properties in Russia and that's it. You know what? I achieved it ALL. And now I realized if I got bigger goals I would snatched them. Lesson learned. I dream big right now. I am working on completely changing the strategy behind my business, I am not making it to a specific market as it was previous with Russia or Ukraine, I target global market, I work on the web-site redesign to automate lots of processes of buying cars online and important I've found partner with whom I work right now. Things looking good.

I am excited to be part of Fastlane community. I want to give value to the folks here as well. Would love to meet guys in my industry (auto dealers, auto exporters, auto tuning). And most importantly I want to learn from you guys. Never stop learning...
