<div class="bbWrapper">Definitely read the Millionaire Fastlane. <br /> <br /> One of the concepts the book discusses that will help you is:<br /> Figure out what skills and abilities you have and then figure out how to use them in a way that would bring the most value to the most people&#039;s lives.</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">Read the book. <br /> <br /> Your dad owns a commodity selling business...<br /> <br /> How about combine what you want to do into 1 thing?<br /> <br /> Make believe you own your own commodity selling business, start a site selling that product. And then, add an eccomerce aspect of it. <br /> <br /> This way- you dev, you sell, run a eccomerce site, and sell... And sell...<br /> <br /> Dont have it relate to your dads business, just use the same commodity, so you can use your dads company to start your own firm. Thing broader in terms.<br /> <br /> I would have loved for my father to be in commodities. Nope, he just develops apartment complexes and buildings and sells them. <br /> <br /> <br /> Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">I&#039;ve read the book, but I think I need to read it again, thanks guys. <br /> For now I&#039;m going to stick with the internet business/services, it&#039;s the place that I think I can bring the most value.</div>
