    Documenting My journey to $10k/month at 15 with AI automation

    EXECUTION 
    Thanks for sharing, are you only 15 as the thread implies? You are very active and yet on the thing that truly matters -- finding customers -- you are not focused on. Find the shortest path to your first customer, and take it.

    The Problem/Purpose Paradigm: Fire Unlimited Motivation and Laser Focus...

    MINDSET 
    But they are still connected. Example: My purpose is to save dogs and open animal rescues. That purpose drives ones to make money in pursuit of the objective, whether it's a job or business they tolerate simply to justify the ends-- more animals saved.

    And yet the church has no problem taking 10% of your money. Why does "God" need your money? You can do more good in the world with more money, whether you directly give it to the church, others, or provide value. In the end, I'm sure God will be able to interpret your pious motives either as a...

    My experience in the Hyperbaric Oxygen Chamber (HBOT)

    HEALTH 
    5 sessions in, I just got a new 6-year record high for restorative sleep. Somewhere on this forum some years ago, I complained about not getting enough deep sleep, barely getting 1 hour per night. Last night I had a record deep sleep (2+ hours) and record restorative sleep, nearly 4.5 hours...

    The Artificial Intelligence (AI) Random Chat Thread...

    - AI - 
    As someone recommended to me here, avoid general AIs for code - go with the ones who have niched into code. I spent an hour dabbling in Claude code. Was initially impressed, but ended up fighting with it over errors and problems. I felt it sped up things by a factor of 5. Then, Lovable did...

    I am self-managed. And no my perspective hasn't changed on it. Learning how to manage capital is a skill I highly recommend because if you do hire an advisor, you can spot bullshit. The most basic "manage capital" skill there is, is to open a brokerage account, and buy an ETF or index fund...

    Open a brokerage account and get the money working in something that pays more than 1%. I recommend Schwab, Fidelity, and Vanguard.

    I finally vibe coded a web app and it has been an absolute blast!

    I've been dabbling on Lovable and it is insane what it can do, and yes, it made code and design somewhat fun. I dread having to A) Build websites or B) Having find someone to build one. Now I can roll on in there and get a working prototype in a few hours. For f*cks sake, it would take me...

    Helping others. So they can help others.

    IDEA 
    Try Lovable ... Wix = moped. Lovable = motorcycle. How do you plan on marketing to potential customers?

    Congrats, $200 USD, then converted to Pakistan currency? You might want to try to cold email reach out to EU/AU/US customers where the pricing is higher. One job there might be equal to 10 in your local economy. Welcome aboard!

    Bitcoin / Cryptocurrency Discussion (And Predictions)

    HOT! CRYPTO CHAT 
    Reminder... in the time it takes BTC to reverse from its decline, and then recover, you could start a business that profits every single month -- and then realize, your financial plan doesn't need to rely on patience and hope.

    From factory worker to SaaS founder at 33 – how The Millionaire Fastlane pushed me to build AiAuditBuddy

    INTRO 
    Your thread is really a masterclass in how to use the forum. You posted a link to your project/website, giving readers the ability to make judgements, offering immediate feedback of quality. When people post vague questions with no website reference (I don't want someone to steal my idea!) the...

    Unless you are offering some type of questionable material, you are overthinking this. You are solving problems which may never exist. Go with the simplest, quickest path to market. No company would raise your prices from $25/mo, to $2,500/mo unless your volume warrants it. And volume =...

    INTRO 
    Welcome to the forum and congrats on building a product. Can your first customer be the company you worked for? The biggest challenge I see with this is customer acquisition -- it's very hard to reach the right people who would need this product. Do you have a plan to reach them? Perhaps on...
