Hey guys, I've been through hell all of my life, and I've shared some of my horrible experiences in a couple of threads I made (check my profile for the threads, I'm not gonna go into it). Yet, I've seen so many "progress threads" and the like by people who have so many times more resources connections than I do, yet they've given up, or they "forgot" about their goals, or what not. I have also read many threads and posts by people that are completely lost, yet they've "read the book multiple times". I've come to the conclusion that there is an an overwhelming amount of Action Fakers and people that are simply chasing the "event", whilst trying to avoid the "PROCESS" as much as possible. That being said, this is the thread where I chronicle my journey to a Million Dollars in Cash/Liquid Assets in 12 months, after taxes; with just $35 in starting capital. It will be a mix of the multiple income streams in the beginning, and will solidify into fewer and more profitable, albeit riskier avenues. Here's my current methods of acquiring my net worth...
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bootstrapping
I will use the $35 that I have (20 that I should be getting today, and another 5 tomorrow, plus 10 that I already have) to purchase vintage Video Games to flip for immediate profits..and keep doing so until I get into the bigger items like Consoles and other Electronics like Apple products. This will make me 5 figures within a few months, especially if combined with....
Part - Time Work
I will be actively looking for part time work to get myself a place to live and pay my bills, as well as covering the costs of furthering my Fastlane Education + working capital for ventures.
GED
The Housing Program that I am staying at will give a laptop worth hundreds of dollars, for completing my GED, which will open up many options for me, which I can get rid of for straight cash, or cheaper laptop and cash, or some kind of other profitable combination..Not to mention it can even serve as a backup to the laptop I have now.
Internet Marketing
I will venture back into Affiliate Marketing, this time around I will be building websites that will convert well, as opposed to trying to do what the masses are doing and never making any money. I will also create my own product/membership/service to sell...Further information To Be Announced.
Miscellaneous
- Teaching myself Web Programming (Learning XHTML/CSS atm. It will serve me well to be able to code myself in the near future..I will know how to make good websites within a few months.)
- Learning the ins/outs of Internet Marketing (Copywriting, SEO, Reverse Engineering, Product Launches, etc)
- Random Self-Improvement/Inspirational Material to keep my mind on the Fastlane.
While this plan may sound very unorthodox, I WILL accomplish my goal..in fact I will make MORE than a million, I see myself make MILLIONS! Things will be further elaborated upon as I continue this path towards wealth and power..but for now, you get the basic blueprint. Also, there are three things I care about in the following order..just three, not including automatic givens such as my Myself and my health, my Mother(I mean, she did try her best
), and so forth..
#1. Business. - I mean, I've been into it all my life, so yea...
#2. Music. - It serves as of my main sources of inspiration that I draw from...
#3. Money. - Well duh, any entrepreneur is in it to make money, the GOOD ones however know how to combine this selfish desire with fulfilling the needs/wants of the market of course
No women/sex, partying or anything...just those above things
M.O.B. Forever
