Hi all,

I'm a 25 year old Software Developer from Scotland about to start reading the millionnaire fastlane. I make about £34K a year in my permanent job doing Web Development work for a software house. I have £60K left on my mortgage, £6K in a pension fund, and a bank account that's accruing interest. I think that I'm a Slowlaner by definition.

I find myself with extra time on the weekends and as I get older it gets harder for me to waste it frivolously on Netflix and gaming. I want to spend my time working on developing a business. I have many ideas such as developing content for sites such as PluralSight or YouTube, reselling and have even considered creating an online marketplace for locally sourced products - a sort of "Made in Britain" kind of thing.

The problem I'm most faced with is finding the right product/service to provide for. I want to provide something of real value that isn't just a cheap thing I bought in China and sold for slightly more money in the UK. I want my path to the fastlane to be one filled with integrity and high quality.

I probably wont post very often, but will do so when I hit milestones or need/can provide advice.

Mike
