Hello folks.

My name is Jon and I've been lurking around here for a while but just getting around to doing an intro. I've read both of MJ's books. Great stuff!

A little about me.

I've been a tech geek for a long time. Built a lot of computers, tore a lot a part. I even ran a small two node Bulletin Board System (BBS) back in the day that, near its end, actually sent messages back and forth with the then burgeoning internet.

I have been a software developer for 20+ years. From databases to front end UI, web to mobile apps, on-prem servers to cloud based SAAS, I've done a little of almost everything.

I have run an Amazon FBA business in the past but I'm looking for a business opportunity with more Control(ENTS).

I just got finished co-leading a book study on the Millionaire Fastlane book. Me and a buddy took a high school senior and his dad thru the book hoping to impart some business wisdom on the this young man that we wish we had at his age while giving the older folks some entrepreneurial inspiration. We are planning on doing this study again with another young adult soon.

That's all for now. Any questions?

Have a great day!

He wants to do something with churches and ministry (not real sure what that is yet). Basically something that wouldn't generate much if any money. The entrepreneurship would give him a means to support himself and a family to then be able to pursue these other important but low/non-profit ideas.

Yea, thought you'd like that. :)

Maybe not as big a trekkie as you but I did really enjoy the original series and most of the original cast movies. I liked most of the reboot movies as well. I didn't watch much of the other Star Trek shows.

I love me some Star Wars as well (original trilogy, others not so much). I used to watch the original Star Wars movie every day after school, on Beta. :)
