It's been a looong time since I made a post on this forum, back when the name of the website was different and before MJ released the Millionaire Fast Lane book lol. My expenses for hosting the city guide website greatly out weighed the income I was bringing in so I eventually scrapped it but it was a great learning experience. The last few years I've been playing with VoIP and networking in general along with being involved with the IT certification community. I never gave up on the fast lane dream but I admit I've been watching from the side walk for a while.
Even though I'm 25 years young and approaching the 100K salary range I know there's a better way. I just can't imagine doing this for another 15-30 years of my life going through the daily grind. I've made some bad decisions (not horrible) such as buying a newer performance car and renting instead of buying. I've made some good decisions too, such as paying of the majority of my student loans and investing on increasing my income in my career. I'm committing the next 12-18 months to buying house (with a mortgage less than my current rent), paying off the little bit of student loan debt I have, and paying off my car. The last 6 months I thought EVERYDAY at least about my strategy of getting out of the slow lane. Something about generating income from websites excites me so I'll stick with that.
I've learned a TON from building a few websites in the past but I'm going to make another approach. I'm going to build web site portfolio buying websites that's already generating income. The left over income from not having many expenses should allow me to get started fairly quickly. I have 3-5 plan for the income from my web sites to completely out pace the income from my 9-5. Wish me luck!
