I'm sitting here with my (almost) 18 year old son, and we are discussing what he wants to do. His mind has been poisoned by his father's ranting about Fastlane (not yet successful, mind you).
We've discussed college or the local equivalent of Junior College as a way to get basic skills. I'm advising him to do a course, or degree in something that interests him - as a way of getting used to the structure of learning/preparing/testing and then moving on. Also, frankly, I am working my FT job in addition to my FL startup and the rest of the family - I just don't have the time to really mentor him the way I'd like to, at this point.
So - I am asking the community here for some advice: my son is very smart, disciplined in what is important to him, and a hard worker. And, as I said, his mind has been poisoned by FL thinking.
What would you all recommend/suggest?
