    Technical advisor in optics - small story

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    This is a wonderful question. I have already earned 20% more in absolute numbers in the same company being a team leader but my hourly payment was around 30% less due to the stupid amount of time spend in unnecessary meetings and task forces that went no where. I went back being a "simple"...

    Technical advisor in optics - small story

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    Yes, that is indeed the question but my timeframe to start entrepreneurship in a serious way is around three years in the future. I build up myself to be a multitalent, a jack of all trades. Still, I know it does not fit well with the fastlane mentality here in this forum not to throw away my...

    Technical advisor in optics - small story

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    Hello altogether, I was not on the forum for long but I would like to share a small story about my side hustle which was nothing more ... a side hustle but it gave me some insights. First of all, I do not want to brag about education or so but I would like to stick to the numbers as truthfully...

    I need advice on going to uni/college

    PEOPLE RANT 
    First, I would like to understand why bachelor takes 5 and not 3 years as it is usual in other countries. If you want to pursue an IT career as entrepreneur, I would suggest to take the synergies from university to have a fallback solution. Also, you will be able to work on your business next to...

    Starting to work my way out of the slowLane

    EXECUTION SLOWLANE 
    I am happy for you. Great success. Having read the thread so far, does the bigger truck also need more work? Is it really better? Probably it is, however, you should ask yourself the questions 1. What is the turnover per year that I can accomplish by using the bigger trucks? Is it higher? Does...

    What will you accomplish in 2020? <-- Well did u?

    EXECUTION 
    All yes except of no 4. I think that I will freeze this website and concentrate more into investing. Also I am working as a substitute for this point to this as a freelancing technical advisor. Seriously not much in a whole but it is interesting and they pay me nearly 4 times more per hour as in...

    Ebook Scaling - second edition and audiobook

    EXECUTION 
    Hi, I have a bit of a problem with finding the right path of how to deal with the second edition of an ebook. I mean in a way it is like with any product, bring it to the open field, test it, get responses, adapt, improve, repeat. I would like to go second edition with my ebook and then bring...

    A book that is too specific?

    F.ck You! My own Journey of Financial Independence

    EXECUTION 
    Hi, very well done so far. Indeed, take some of the money and invest it. Do you want to put it into stocks or bonds? If you consider 6k with a dividend of 5% you can get sth like 25 Euros a month dividend. Otherwise, I advise you to think of investing into better tools for future work. An...

    This reads very well. You are on a good way and playing your hand as you got it. Good stuff! I would like to add two points: 1) I would look closely on the truck market in the next years. The tendency is to go autonomous here so that you get rid on the driver's costs. I am seeing some...

    Google offers alternative to college degrees

    I love it and I hate it. It is a very good thing that they put skin in the game of further education and downturn the costs of these educational courses. However, what is their intrinsic idea? Get more people into these trades and lower their costs of HR spending because they are bound within...

    Is Youtube good for passive income?

    I have lately seen a documentary in which the lady with 2 million subscribers got a near nerve breakdown because she could not come up with any good content. I would say it is at all not passive, especially when you target the younger high communicative audience. Most (clever) people use it as...

    It is common to do the things that are easy and where you can find yourself to be victorous. I played a long, long time pen and paper games to get into my happy place. But when I read your statements, it really hurts me because I think that there is some work for you to do on yourself. I think...

    A book that is too specific?

    Hi guys, so I just want to update this topic here to make a complete picture because it might help a person. I am using this book project to make my project management certificate this year and I had to write down all the stats and project things in German anyways - that's why I take the...

    Any ideas for a Medicine student?

    HOT! IDEA 
    My family doctor is running three offices in towns nearby at the same time having like 10 doctors underneath him. If this isn't running a business, I dont know what is. This new generation of doctors likes to be a employer for the safety of holidays and not being in charge. Their decision but...

    Investing while still having debt

    INVESTING 
    Hi Jeandearme, it is a great question. And the answer is quite simple as mentioned before: Try to minimize the debt while keeping some extra cash for emergencies. I can recommend here Dave Ramsey's approach of how to deal with debt, but in a nut shell: Tackle the smallest debt amount first, not...

    Just as an addition to the difference between historical markets behaviour and future one, I watched a very interesting video: View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3BScK-QyWIo Basically: The 4 % rule wont work anymore because future estimates of percentage increase are expected to be just...
