Hello Fastlaners, I would like to introduce myself-
Well first off, I am a 25 year old male from the great city of Jacksonville, FL. I've been lurking this site for almost 2 months now, and in those 2 short months, I learned alot.
What brought me here: Kind of a funny story. I was sitting in my cubicle, kind of fed up with how things were going that day and kind of bored, so I hit the Internet Explorer and started searching the net. I started Googling "millionaire forums" just for sheer entertainment. I was expecting to find a forum where there threads like "so I just took the yacht out today" or "took the good 'ol lambo for a spin" LOL. Well I came across this forum, and boy, things changed then on. in a good way.
I got a bit curious so I clicked on the Success stories section. I came across CantWait2's story. I don't know how to say it, and I don't want to sound all corny and sappy, but his story honestly changed my life that day. That story got to me in such a way that it's very hard to explain. The gritty details, how real he kept it, it really inspired me. I wish I could thank him for writing it.
I then read MJ's story, and then I was really motivated. For me, it was the first time that a successful person kept every single, gritty detail in their success story. That's what inspired me the most. These guys told their stories and kept it truthful and honest. They didn't give me the whole "it was EASY! just hand over 500 bucks and i'll tell ya what I did to get there!"
The business I'm in: Clothing/Apparel. I'm not some fashionista really. the only experience I have in 'fashion' is that I like to look good on a very tight budget and that I helped an ex-friend out with his clothing line with a bit of success. I now want to try it solo. I already bought the domain I want. and have already talked to a couple of very reputable screen printing companies around. still waiting to get enough money to get my DBA. Also, I convinced a very, very talented coworker of mine to design my logo, I owe him so much for it, I love it.
Why I finally chose to join: I figured I learned so much just by lurking this site, I can only imagine how much more I will learn by joining it. I am not going to lie, there are so many brilliant minds on this site alone, that I was very intimidated to join. I don't want to gain anything from this site but knowledge and positivity. Aside from my immediate family, no one is supporting me, and it's cool. All of my friends have ostrasized (sp?) me since I have gave up the nightlife and finally wanted to do something with my life.
I apologize for a long winded intro, but I take this site very seriously and I just wanted to give a good intro to everyone out of respect. I am very honored to join this forum.
by the way, you can call me JRoss.
