Hello Fastlane Forum,
My name is Joey and I just finished reading The Millionaire Fastlane and Unscripted and it really opened my eyes. I am 23 and just moved to Chicago after acquiring a job that most would deem as amazing right out of college. I soon realized that the job was not all it was made out to be. Very little fulfillment and constant stress. The stress would be fine but it is a result of work that I really hate doing and that doesn't offer the opportunity of rapid growth in line with my skills and value growing in the organization.
I quickly got hooked into the make money online side of social media because I wanted a way out of the 9-5 and to be able to start a business. I bought some courses, read a lot of books and tried many things. Started posting on social media (quit a couple of the accounts) but ended up sticking with my Youtube (I still post). I tried starting a SMMA. I tried dropshipping (made 200 dollars in sales). Overall, none of these really caught steam.
Then, I read The Millionaire Fastlane and Unscripted and my eyes got opened. I realized it is possible to take control and live an unscripted life. It got me to think in ways that I haven't thought before and that's why I joined this forum. I'm happy to be here and excited to dig through the different pages and learn a lot. My goal is to start a business with a productocracy that solves a problem and makes a meaningful impact in the world. As I learn and take inspiration from this forum I will hopefully be able to provide as much value back to the community as I have received as I continue to learn and grow.
