Hey everyone, I saw a number of people had an introduction so here is mine...
I have yet to read the book fastlane millionaire book, (I ordered, should be here tomorrow).
I started running a construction company when I was 16 years old when my father was away, or sick and stuck in hospitals and so on. He is better now, thank god.
I have always had an entrepreneurs mindset, wanting to instead come up with an idea, organize a company so it works on its own and collecting nicely from it monthly as I merely concentrate on helping it grow. I for some reason love the internet and the opportunities it has made availalbe for everyone who wants to take action.
I first started a virtual hotels, renting company. Where I literally took images and facts about top hotels and "rented" a number of them, at real rates. Only catch...people paid real rates to stay at this "virtual" hotel and gained nothing else from it directly... INDIRECTLY... I pooled the money of all the tenants for the hotel for the month, and came up with sums of around 7-9k a month. I then had a randomizer script on the site choose a 1st, 2nd and 3rd place winner. The earnings would be divided amongst them and I would take a nice 1.5-2k of the funds. This lasted for 1 year, upon which, because my site was hosted on my highschool's server, and I "finished the class" my username and logins/data were deleted automatically by the end of Freshman year HS : / ... I refunded the June's payments to the hotel and never went back to it.
From then, I ran membership sites, only really accumulated 50-100 people, from niches such as being a good parent (I'm not even a parent..I was only in HS), gardening and raising bunnies... I think it was too much work to come up with content to write, gardening because my grandparents own farms, being a good parent because I think parents are the greatest factor to create the GOOD and the BAD of their children, and bunnies because my girlfriend and I bought a bunny and heck, I let her take the site and run it as a birthday gift, which she got bored of, and so it died out.
Junior year HS, I wrote an ebook on "How To Make $10,001.00 Guaranteed This Month or Your Money Back"
I offered solid advice on how to create a membership site to make $10,000 this month with it... I sold 45 copies at $ 100 by sending a letter with the general pitch of the book, through the mail to my neighbors who all knew me, and noted "Funds gained from the sale of this e-book will result in a down payment for a car for xxx living at yyy, your neighbor!" (it was something like this, can't remember the entire wording)... ( still have the red mitsubishi eclipse, which I must say needs to change to a BMW or Audi S7 ASAP).
Senior year in HS, I wanted to start a payment processing site, and screw with PayPal and other bill payment services, this was a flop and waste of my time, I do not have "development" knowledge, and have put this on my todo when I have a few hundred thousand to make it as I envision/have documented it to be when I can afford to do so.
I also started Texagram Inc., it is a mobile marketing company, currently also my only source of income.
And here I am... My goal? My reason to join this forum, I want to make $ 1,000,000 a month. Am I short on this... yes, I'm short by more than 11 Million dollars in revenue a year. Can I expect to make my first $1,000,000 in a single month? Yes, but it will take a lot of months where I will only make a few hundred thousand before I can make that $1 Million a month.
What I am doing right now...
Working on opening a stock market. No I will not say more. What I am doing as I have developers create what I need?
...Trying my hand on Importing and Exporting from China.
I do wish myself success.
Thank you for reading!
And great forum by the way, I love a lot of the content I have found here, and I know what I learn here will be greatly beneficial.
