Just a highlight of the nonsense

If you have any credit card debt, or your FICO credit score is not at least 720, you're not yet ready to take on this venture.

Take the sloooooooow lane to success, THEN try to start a business! Brilliant! This just reaffirms my risk-averse disposition. I think I'll just keep punching a clock where it's nice and safe. Thanks Suze!

Seriously, someone needs to gag this woman from talking about shit she knows nothing about.

Listening to her give start-up advice is like listening to Lindsay Lohan talk about healthy living.

She mentions 4 items "you must have before starting a startup" ... LOL, I DISAGREE with all 4 of them.

Like, if you have the cure for cancer, someone's gonna give a shit about your 590 credit score.

Typical textbook BS....excuse me I need vomit uke:

Funny thing is, this is exactly what they tell you in business school (entrepreneurship) classes and few if any of the professors have ever started a business :smx4:, let alone grew one into a sizable operation.

DING, DING, DING, DING, DING, DING, DING!!! We have a winner!

Seriously, I laughed reading that article. What's sad is how many aspiring entrepreneurs that could bring value to the world may have just given up because they don't fit her criteria.

She's a personal financial guru - I guess that article was just marketing for her own business. As per MJ's book - I BET she is one of those guru's that doesn't practice what she preaches.

lol...


Guys' she's smarter then you think.

She knows that she will be long gone when the people who followed her advice find out the truth.

It's pretty easy to tell someone to wait 40 years and then they will be rich.

My guess would be that Suze isn't sitting down at her computer and typing out this hooey herself. If she's smart about using her time, I'm pretty sure someone like her would have a peon somewhere banging out this type of content for the Huffington Post or Oprah channels. So this advice is probably coming from a staffer (maybe even someone from elance or fiverr or somewhere like that) who is just assembling rehashed glurdge that seems to fit the Suze brand.

"In addition, your start-up money should not come from your retirement accounts or home equity. Borrowing from your future or leveraging your home is not allowed."

LMFAO!

Seriously what a massive pile of shit.

If there was an excellent fastlane opportunity you should be willing to put that shit on your credit cards let alone take money out of your 401k.

 

[biggeemac]

Well, I guess I get a massive FAIL considering i just sent $2000 of my $3500 savings account to China for my import......a business I am inexperienced in and clearly have no business in taking such a HUGE risk.....ROTFL

Damn, my credit score is 650.. I'm doomed

Thinking about it, Im surprised none of my customers have asked what my credit score is prior to buying my product

 

[hatterasguy]

If you have a poor credit score you have to use more expensive private money. That's about the only difference.

But if your act is together enough to run a company it should be pretty good anyway.

I won't even take a renter with a score much less than 700.
