    The next internet revolution - money for the masses

    Even if someone has bad credit, can't they still get a debit card (ie; debit visa or mastercard) linked to their normal account? Don't know about the US, but it's pretty much standard in Aus that you can have a visa or mastercard debit card that works exactly like a credit card (ie; you can pay...

    What's the truth on MLMs?

    If you join an MLM then essentially you're subscribing to the 'consumer' mentality. You're a customer of the MLM, they've 'sold' you on a so-called business opportunity that's neatly packaged up for you. except it isn't really a business and the only way you can make your money back is by...

    PEOPLE

    Can I Fastlane this possibly slowlane opportunity?

    SLOWLANE EXECUTION 
    Could definitely be a good learning opportunity for you if you take up the china opportunity, and you can always then apply your new skills and contacts into your own business when you want to start it up. If you have a good enough relationship with the guy running the company, maybe you can...
