I am currently working on a blog, writing eBooks and I'm working with a partner on a web based service. All three of these ventures require start-up funds to get the success I'm looking for. I'm trying freelancing and that's going on kind of slowly, and I'm looking to make money now, because I need the money now. I decided to start flipping cars with a friend, he'd provide the money and I'd do the work. Then I thought to myself.......he's providing the money, taking the risk, and I'll take a %. He's paying me, I'm working for him. No thanks, I'm not in this to work for someone. So I searched and found a great car I can flip, so I am emptying my bank account, selling my stocks and taking the risks necessary to become Fastlane. I'm terrified, but also excited. The worst case scenario in this deal is that I have to part the car out and break even, and that's if something goes horribly wrong. I'm still terrified, though. But once I start making enough profit from flipping cars, I will have the marketing budget to market my blog and eBooks and my web service that I am working to create. Flipping cars is a great way to gain huge profits (Looking at at least a 200% profit on this one alone) and this is the jolt I'm looking for.
Sorry for the ramble, but here we go.
EDIT: I've now decided I won't just limit myself on cars. I'm going to do some Craigslist flipping to get all of my start-up funds. I have a # in mind for what I need for each thing, and am going to flip on CL for that #. In the spare time I'm not CL flipping, I'll be working on writing and my web service.
