Hi,

I have read TMF and liked his story.
I currently have a business which involves tech support and use Asian workers (in Asia)
for all the handson work.
Right now we use ppc to get our leads and it is growing nicely, started about 15 months ago,
finally found a monthly reliable niche which is ... (like REALLY, sorry not sharing) but it's allowing
me to play tennis, do my cycling, and work on another business to take me into the real stratosphere of $$.

I look forward to this Forum for ideas and perspective, to be candid, I am completely content to make 10-15K a month, not there now, and I live in N California, the expensive part.

I've had offline business before dealing with real hard goods from manufacturing selling to others, had to deal with the EPA before who came to my door to interview me for possible Criminal Charges, that was interesting.

So hey MJ, thanks for hosting this, but why do you?
Where is that link, I'm sure you have answered that.
I can't imagine this makes you any serious money or does it, or are you not that transparent?
Which is ok.
I have found your gendre to be very opaque in general.

Cheers,

Sam

OH yeah something else, I use Adblocker and keep getting a message from you to disable it, is that because your real money from this sight is from banner ads or adsense?

Is that really critical for your sites continued existence?

Hey @Sammyc

welcome to the forum. As for the forum itself, there's ads, a marketplace you have to pay for and an INSIDERS subscription, where all the hidden threads are, which will tell you how to make 1.000.000$ per month by just doing one simple thing, it's ... (like REALLY, sorry not sharing).

Have fun :)

I followed the science; all I found was money.

Yea, because I'm broke. Everything's a lie.

I can't imagine this makes you any serious money or does it, or are you not that transparent?

Boy, what a great introduction to the forum. Do you make a habit of going to parties and offending the host? You're going to be a real hoot around here.

To answer your question, you're right. This website doesn't make me any "serious" money.

If I was interested in "serious money" I wouldn't be running a forum and selling a ten dollar book. Instead I'd be doing what everyone else is doing, $10K seminars, free trainings, blah blah. Or I'd start another business (and not be bothered with a publishing company/forum/book/helping people).

This forum is my platform for my message which supports my purpose.

And yea, it doesn't pay that well.

The ads, subscriptions, etc, simply give me a better return on my time, instead of it being a full on charity.

Welcome to the forum Sammy. Considering that you have read The Millionaire Fastlane , I think that you have a very poor grasp of the Fastlane philosophy and a bad entrepreneurial mindset in general. I recommend that you re-read and read:

- Chapter 30 of The Millionaire Fastlane
- This thread by @Andy Black
- This thread by @IceCreamKid

and reflect upon your own mindset and figure out how to change it.
I'll give you a big hint with this key word: Value.
what in god's name does this even mean?
What? I thought everybody found MJ's gendre to be very opaque...
