Blog postI don't really know where to start. Basically awhile back I got really lucky in business and made over $100,000 profit in ecommerce. And over the period of a couple months I ended up losing it all from a mix of bad business decisions, splurging it on shopping and travel, and a little bad luck.
Now its as if everything I do to make money backfires and fails. I've had to fire all my VA's and drastically cut down on how much I spend on ads. As embarrassing as it is to say, I now have -
Blog postSince so many of you are trying to become rich, are any of you taking steps to socially groom into the elite class? How many of you are planning to be influential in your communities, politics, and in philanthropic work? And do you join country clubs and learn to play golf? What are you doing to learn the proper etiquettes?
I will come into wealth soon - I have tried hard to ditch all the etiquette of the poor class I grew up around, and there’s so much more to learn to fit in tha -

Blog postAfter physiological needs, the most essential need of every human being is security and safety. You can't thrive as an entrepreneur if you constantly fear for your life the way people living in a war-torn country do.
However, if you're reading this, all of your basic needs are most likely well-taken care of. Fortunately, nowadays relatively few people (compared to history) lack safety and security which means that whenever you experience discomfort, it's likely the kind that will -
Blog postHello from beautiful Northern Utah. I live in Salt Lake, just west of Park City.
I am completing 20 years of work experience this year, in various industries and with various positions.
I have a Bachelors in Marketing and Finance from the University of Utah and an MBA from the University of Michigan.
I have been an investment banker, financial manager for a fortune 10 company, a management consultant with PwC, and am now a co-owner of a construction c -
Blog postOver the past few weeks, I've been very fortunate to have some great conversations with fellow forum members about the topic of sales. A few people here reached out to me for advice on sales as they know my Slowlane job is in sales. I wanted to take a little bit of time to throw together a Beginner's Guide to sales for people who have never had any significant experience. Also, I'll open this up to an AMA on sales techniques and approaches.

Blog postWho am I?
Hi Fellow Fastlaners, my name is CJ. I am a married guy in my thirties with a kindergarten daughter. Being a corporate American employee for about 10 years, I still lost in my identity with no prospect of financial freedom, not even to mention the hopelessness of being a scripted slowlaner.
Both my wife and I have full-time corporate jobs. We have a mortgage on my current house and no other debts, which is good; but the prospect of being financially independant is -
Blog postI've been told that the new magic financial freedom # is $10M. So given that I have some distance to go, as I'm at about $1.6M in holdings now. I'm shooting to be financially free by the time I'm 43.
In pursuit of this, I am seeking advice from professionals who may be there on how to diversify between my passive holdings (partial ownership in REITs with preferred returns), to active development, where I may get higher returns including the construction fees.

Blog postNew Contributor - Hope to collaborate with true professionals.
I am looking for ideas in developing a light commercial park (4-6 buildings) on a 3-4 acre site.
Has anyone done this before? What % of the site should be dedicated to the buildings, common grounds, and shared space.
I will seek trade professionals (plumbers, electricians, cabinet work, tile, metal works, roofers) for each of the spaces.
We have lack of these buildings in ou -

Blog postI'm very happy to say a project I relaunched after completely walking away for almost a year is starting to see amazing results. I've been pounding hard on processes and ignoring results, but its pretty great when the well starts to yield.
My focus is on events, music and people. Due to tough state laws, events have been totally held down. There are loopholes that others are operating under and I started to sucker-fish onto others who have huge resources to get things done.

Blog postHeres my journey to building a money-tree of my own.
***
I got into SaaS about 6 weeks ago. I've got a heavy IT background (no programming XP) so it's not difficult to get into.
I've been calling lots of businesses, approx 500 now and spoke with 27 people. The niche I've chosen isn't panning out like I'd thought. Not enough painful problems, or ones that can be fixed fairly easily.
Building a SaaS is no easy task. It's no wonder theirs no train -
Blog postHello entrepreneurs,
I just came across the success story of a British Indian entrepreneur, Ashish Thakkar, who is the founder of Mara Group: mara group and his Wikipedia article (read "Career" section): Ashish Thakkar - Wikipedia

Blog postJust your average run of the mill intro thread, because I’m new here and figured I might as well plunge in head first.
My name is D.A. Williams, I am a traditionally published author, farm wife, boymom and doer of things. I rarely sit still long enough to not be doing something new, and the entrepreneurial spirit is my jam.
I love to learn and strive to succeed regardless of how long it may take me to do so, because my mama didn’t raise no quitter. I mean, she proba -
Blog postThis is the next phase of my first progress thread here (EXECUTION - Killer Software Project)
I have started releasing the software I have been building for the past 2 months today on forums related to its domain.
At this point, I will wait for basic feedback (or lack thereof) and act accordingly. If very little comes from this approach, I will start with a bit of Facebook ads and see how that...

Blog postHey everyone. I am currently a videographer and photographer in Tampa, Florida. As a side project with a couple other friends I want to create a website that is a mix of videos and a database of all the small businesses, local artists, musicians, breweries, food trucks and things like that. We will try to do as many videos we can for a low price for all of these places/people to promote them. Kind of like a local market online.
What is holding me back now is a name for the site be -

Blog postIn the Fastlane book, MJ DeMarco somewhere mentions that he can play the piano.
And as far as I can remember from his YouTube videos from 2011, he has a piano at home, but I am not sure.
What music can he play on the piano?
I myself can also play some music. I am not a Beethoven by far, but I can play tons of german infant's music such as Vogelhochzeit. -
Blog post"Inversion is a powerful thinking tool because it puts a spotlight on errors and roadblocks that are not obvious at first glance. What if the opposite was true? What if I focused on a different side of this situation? Instead of asking how to do something, ask how to not do it." -- James Clear
It can often be seen that many are looking for the right books, whether to change a mindset or uncover the path of ease. Here, I hope we can answer the question: What have we learn -
Blog postHow do you organize files? What folder structures?
How do you archive large 4K videos? (or even 8K, because entrepreneurs can afford it).
In what way do you utilize HDD,SSD,USB,SD,DVD,BD,CD,LTO and etc.?
I need some advice because I feel unorganised when managing data.
Entrepreneurs also have no budget limit imposed when buying data storage devices. -

Dozens of us were doing eCommerce, with several different products but the same basic strategies.

Blog postJust out of curiosity more than anything.
I'm an avid cigar smoker. We have a large stand-up cabinet humidor in my business.
I smoke maybe 2-3 times a week. Always with good fellowship and friends. For me, it represents a true 2 hour span of total relaxation and enjoyment. It clears my mind, relaxes my body, and leaves me feeling energized after.
So - any other Fastlaners have a strong penchant for cigars? -

Blog postCurious how many of you utilize a proofreader or a line editor for your online content. And I am talking about editing/proofreading, not ghostwriting or anything (yet).
First, is it software (e.g., Grammarly) or a person?
Did you find them on Upwork or Freelance or another site?
How do you pay them, and do you like sticking with one person who knows your material?
Do you give them a style guide re: fonts, colors, etc.?

Blog postThis is going to be a very short rant.
I receive a number of messages through Linkedin and other social channels every week. I read almost all of them, not because they are (mostly) good copywriting but I am obsessed to see why they suck and make me feel like somebody tries to trick me : )
Some are worse than this, way worse.
Don't try to trick people into buying your stuff, that feeling will make them forget you in split seconds.

Blog postSeveral months ago, I started a website in the fiction writing niche, as it’s one I’m very familiar with and I wanted to have a hand in helping other writers do their thing. I got several clients (ghostwriting and editing, mainly) which was great for supplementing book income, but the time has come to move back into my own projects and use the funds I’ve been putting into developing and marketing the site back into those endeavors instead.
So I put the site up for auction yesterda -

Blog postI apologize if this has been discussed before but I have been looking online/forum for ways to get into real estate with no cash. I don't care if it takes me years to get there but how the hell do I pave my path? Do I need to establish a business first to grow capital? I have read the forums here and it seems wholesaling is either loved or hated and is controversial. I do not have the money to flip yet. I am not asking for you to make decisions for me but if you have any suggestions please...

Blog postHi fastlaners! With permission from my significant other to use her laptop, I felt like I had to share little bit of my day today.
Rewinding a few hours, my family and I were at the family day event for correction officers at Riker's, where water dunking, barbecue and child friendly fun was being had by everyone. As a new recruit getting ready to graduate soon I'm on the fast track to the slowlane, we're talking about $50k upon graduation to nearly six figures in five and half yea -
Blog postFirst of all I have read the Fastlane Millionaire every year for the past 3 years or so. I love the book. And yes I already order Unscripted I'm still waiting for it in the mail.
I respect MJ Demarco and his work but since the the first time I read his book I can't get over the fact that he says that money is more important than your passion. That doing what you love will not make you rich.

Blog postHi everyone,
Not entirely sure if this is the exact forum section to post this, but I really loved the WADM idea that MJ spoke about in his book so I decided to create spreadsheet that everyone can just copy and paste and the formulas will already be applied for it.
I know there is an Android app already, but I figured this might be more useful for everyone. Specially those of all that are mostly on our computers or maybe don't have an Android phone.

Blog postI was doing some reflection today about where I am and where I’m headed. These two places are very, very different.
I never talk about this with close friends, let alone almost complete strangers. Between student loans and credit card debt I’ve got 110k racked up. Yes, six figures of almost entirely unjustified debt.
Scary, right? I know some people with more, but not many, unless they have a mortgage or a business loan.
But here’s the thing; it doesn -

Blog postHello Entrepreneurs!
I am going to start a sharing economy based Platform soon. Today I made some calculations about the required money.
The strategy stays equal anyway. But more cash leads to better marketing.
In my opinion. My platform can be a really big hit. There is a great chance but ofc no guarantee. Execution is King like MJ told.
I will release it in one city and grow from there. I have a big vision for it. But it need time.

Blog postInspired by what @Vilox did in his 30 day cold calling challenge I have done the same the past week, calling businesses that definitely need a website and seeing how I could help.
In the past week, I made 182 calls and got 5 new leads. From anyone who wants a new site and is interested in getting one to others who want to know how they can get found on Google.
I originally thought that I could just grow and stretch myself to take care of all this, but the reality is
