Hey fellow Fastlaners, glad to be back. I joined this community in late 2012, did nothing with it, and am back now. About me: graduated from college in 2010 with a Communications degree, and have had jobs in many different industries including hospitality, advertising, public relations, car rentals, fitness, retail, e-commerce, software, real estate, and private equity. Also had two companies. One specialized in debt consolidation for consumers, and the other was home health care. Both companies failed in under two years. After reading TMF , I know exactly why they failed. Having to go back to the corporate world to work on paying off the credit card debt incurred by these failed businesses has been difficult to say the least. Despite all that, I'm here to live the Fastlane lifestyle and provide VALUE.
