Reposting what I wrote in my introduction thread:

I just read The Millionaire Fastlane book, and I’m very glad I stopped putting off reading it. I’m an avid reader of Wallstreetplayboys, so I was happy to see many similarities, despite you guys coming from different fields. What really made me like it, and what I would say to sum up the book, is “it’s all there.” All the great business ideas and a general overview you can use to point you in the right direction and give you a good kick in the butt to start you off. All in one source, instead of spread out throughout multiple blog pages and sites and other books.

I like how it showed how you really build up your principal quickly via one or more “events” involving the sale of your business, and that it’s still possible to just build it up via high monthly income. And once you have it, then one good course is to just use it to pay for your lifestyle while you concentrate on maxing out your one or more businesses for income/sale.

Another thing I liked was showing the importance of the earnings vs price ratio for each industry.

I also liked these lines:

“ideas are just multipliers while execution represents actual money.”

“a so-so idea with brilliant execution could be worth $350 million. You see, it isn't about your ideas and their potential speed, but about your execution!”

“Join entrepreneur clubs, attend networking events, ally yourself with like-minders, get yourself around people who subscribe to a Fastlane, anything is-possible mindset, and decide who you want on your team of warriors. Read books and autobiographies of those who have the kind of success you want. Find a mentor. Join entrepreneur forums with a Fastlane mindset,”

“Passion comes from either excitement or discontent.”

I’d highly recommend it to anyone else, even if they’re avid readers of WSP, and especially if they aren’t or are used to reading about how to optimize their frugality. Then again, who am I? So take this with a grain of salt, as always with random posters on the internet.

I've read the book and absolutely loved it. I'm sure I'll read it again at some point in the future. It was the main influence I had to pursuing a life of entrepreneurship and heavily influenced my world view on obtaining financial freedom.
 
Read Fastlane last year, great read, but to be honest made me feel very uneasy and been nagging away at me ever since. Think I knew deep down that I was always living in the slowlane, despite starting my own business and earning good money in an semi-autonomous role, essentially I was behaving as a dreampreneur.
 
I loved this book, I love the framework and that, despite having been written years ago, it is completely applicable. I also learned a lot of lessons in the book the hard way with my first venture, great read.
I particularly like the political incorrectness and the general tone of the book.
 
I've read "The Millionaire Fastlane"! Great book, really opened my eyes. I can't thank you enough MJ for your excellent insight. At one point working at Taco Bell is mentioned. Well, I currently work there and I am building a website as we speak. I am motivated to make enough money to escape the food service industry...forever.

I have read the book last year. Haven't got the chance to apply all of the principles due to visa status and financial hardship.

Rereading it now to get fired up again :)

Woohoo :)
 
I have read The Millionaire Fastlane, well listened to it.The book was a verry good and interresting read.
I'm currently at reading Unscripted :)
 
I read the book in 2014 and joined the forum afterwards. No book has altered my reality like TMF! I got a job to help finance my action plans to launching out as an entrepreneur. It's been 3 years, now I am back to the Forum with the required skills and resources to fully launch out. I am here to have a support system to help me successfully implement my exit strategy from paid employment to entrepreneurship and to support others that might be where I was 3 years ago.

Looking forward to taking the dive!
 
It's been a year since I've read this book. I'm currently going through UNSCRIPTED and need to revisit TMF soon!
 
I've read it. (Actually listened to the audiobook, but I hope that counts haha).
