Welcome
My name is 'AcquireCurrency' and I am 17 years old living in the UK
I have created this thread so that I can document the progress of my journey in the fastlane - I have read MJ's book, and plan too read it again once my paperback version gets here.
After many frustrating days of looking for business ideas, I 'accidently' spotted an excellent oppurtunity to start a fastlane business. The idea came to me after saying “I wish there was ...", and after some brief research of the idea I noticed that this market hadn't be exploited to anywhere near it's full potential in the UK - the only TWO competitors I found had done a shit job on both their websites and overall marketing.
My budget is just about $4,500 - I earned this through an ebay business I ran for several months. Click here for some info about that
Within a year I hope to rent a small warehouse, which is only a 3 min bicycle ride from my house.
Goals for this month
Planning
Research (Legal, Payment systems etc)
Decide on a name
Build pre launch website
LIFE GOALS
Pay off my parents debt and mortgage
Own a house near the beach in either florida, spain or cali
Have a silver Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano, an executive type car for feeling like a boss (Merc, BMW, Bentley) and a Shelby GT500
Own an exotic car club with my father and brothers, with annual cruises across USA & Europe
Help others by starting my OWN charities
BUSINESS GOALS
