I was lead to this forum by The Millionaire Fastlane , itself discovered while taking a lunch break in the Summer of 2023. Although the exact phrasing is lost to time, I had become so frustrated with my life's stagnation that I had simply googled something with the sentiment "How do I actually become wealthy." Obviously this is not a novel search, but a reddit thread near the top of the results contained a comment recommending the book, despite the too good to be true title. On July 4th, 2023, the Amazon order was placed.
The book made perfect sense. On August 16th, the order was placed for both sequels. They were read quickly upon arrival, as was Wealth Exposed. With the literature exhausted, I proceeded to lurk this forum for a time, until I fatally convinced myself that I "just needed to think of an idea." I can practically hear our patron groan.
A most predictable and tired excuse, "seeking inspiration" does not entail a deadline. I haven't run a thorough CENTS analysis on a single idea since.
Nearly a year later, I read all four titles again, and opted to sign up for both GoalSumo.com and the forum in order to keep focus on what matters.
I fear wasting my life, and with a third of it already gone I cannot afford to waste any more time with action-faking or inaction.
Postscript: I feel like a narcissist, writing out all of these "I's"; to think it took two more of them just to say this!
