Hey all,
Once again JP here, I joined a couple of weeks ago and introduced myself. After reading through this forum for a week and it feels like a good group of people on there that genuinely want to help, so I’m going to set up this progress thread. Also, I’m going to share a bit more about myself. I was born profoundly Deaf to very young blue-collared parents 27 years ago. Doctors and the medical community told my parents that I would not be capable of reading past 2nd-grade level if they didn’t cut my skull open and shove a computer in my ear canal. Which my parents (thankfully) noped out of and 18 years later I graduated in the top 15 of a rather large and prestigious HS regardless of some teachers saying I’ll be struggling to graduate because of my disability (which I’ll rather call enability).
Ended up in Rochester Institute of Technology graduated with a BS in Chemistry, hopped around awhile with jobs in the manufacturing industry and teaching at a Deaf school realizing that I’m not satisfied. Still itching for something so I started an online MBA program which I will graduate in April with student loans, which I understand now is slow lane mentality but I only have a few classes left, might as well go for it.
Over the course of my early adulthood journey, I’ve accumulated three, way cool kids and a very tolerable wife. Right now with the mortgage and student loans, my total debt is approximately 200k. Which is my first Fastlane goal to drive down all of my debts down to zero and then continue to flip the net profit to be an eventual penta-billionaire. (beating Mark Cuban) I have gone through my entire life of people telling me things were impossible, and I’ve proven them wrong time and time again. I plan on continuing this trend, and this is only my first step to real success.
Now putting myself aside, digging through this forum I'm learning a lot about several different strategies to make money some faster than others. The biggest thing I’m getting so far from this forum is a simple fact, get some F*cking sales no matter what it is. My current plan is to start importing and selling on eBay I set up a spreadsheet with formulas which I will share with you guys for some feedback and maybe you can use it. I have gone over perhaps a few hundred different products over the past week and end up with some pretty good prospects. Currently, I am in negotiation with some Manufactures/suppliers from Alibaba, so I can import and sell some who will get my first small goal, netting my first damn dollar.
