Look at this thread.
This thread was started on November 8th, 2017.
That was more than 6 years ago.
Surf through that thread and you'll find a bunch of starry-eyed "investors" looking to get rich.
Each and everyone boldly proclaiming their WINS, but oddly, disappearing when the LOSSES hit.
184 pages of hope.
312 weeks of waiting.
2,190 days of praying.
6 years have passed, and there are still people in that thread "waiting" for their big break.
Others have simply disappeared, their dreams of a better life, likely dead with their crypto investments.
They are still waiting and hoping.
And they will continue to wait and hope.
Sadly, in all that time sitting around and hoping, they could have already accomplished miraculous things.
You know what you could have accomplished in 6 years?
You know how much life can change in 6 years?
@TNR - sold his SAAS company for $22M which coincidentally, he launched and operated for about 6 years.
Mr. Beast went from a nobody to the biggest influencer on the planet...
@Envision went from a small real estate investor and eCom owner to an 8-figure business/net worth.
@Ravens_Shadow started a growing, high-value software company and is flirting with 9-figure valuations.
@NeoDialectic and @fastlane_dad went from lost young adults to semi-retired after selling their business for more than 8-figures...
@Antifragile @Kak - where were you guys 6 years ago?
I can go on and on.
These people invested in their OWN business and changed their life. Patience, hope, pray, and waiting had NOTHING to do with it.
Hell, you don't even need 6 years.
@Spenny only needed one year. (His thread) While he might not be sipping champagne and toasting a Fastlane, he likely is further than 99% of the people who are still posting about their speculative crypto investments that went up 20% in 3 months.
What haven't you done in the last 6 years?
You could have already created a big business with a big exit.
You could already increased your net worth by 6, 7, 8, or even 9 figures.
You could already have a business that is generated substantial wealth.
But nope, there are still people "waiting" and reporting their crypto gains in that thread, acting as if earning $25K on their BTC investment is a big win.
Sure, investment gains of $25K is a win.
Waiting around 6 years for it, while nothing else in your life has changed?
Not a win.
Let's be clear: I own BTC and some crypto shitcoins -- but they have always been speculative investments, nothing more, nothing less. I'm up fabulously this year like many, but in the grand scheme of things, it doesn't mean a damn thing. Sadly, it means "a damn thing" to far too many folks.
Hope is not a financial plan.
Patience is not a financial plan.
Praying is not a financial plan.
Here's another reminder in case you need it.
Don't let another 6 years go by hoping... praying... waiting.
Where will you be 6 years from today? What can you start today, and make incremental progress on for years to come? Or will you continue waiting, hoping, praying...
Either way, time will not wait. It will pass.
The choice is yours.

GOLD! - HOT! - MINDSET - Newsflash: Fastlane is your only hope. Not stocks. Not Crypto. Not jobs.
I've been here for 15 years. Over that time, I seen a bunch of "get rich" trends come and go. These flavors are hot for a few years, then disappear. Each time, some threads blow up with folks who are starry-eyed about how wealthy they're going to get as they do nothing but hop aboard a trend...
