Hello All,
My name is Nathan. Like all of you The Fastlane Millionaire second only to the Bible has made me really think about what is possible. I am re-reading it for the second time now. I have a total of $9000 ($3000 in college debt left and $6000 on a car loan I still owe) in debt. I am an army medical service corps officer currently deployed to Afghanistan. There are a lot of things that go through your mind when your in an up armored vehicle in a war zone and outside of my own safety and family but 'there has to be more to life then this' certainly has rolled through mine the last 2 months I have been here. Although I am extremely proud to have been serving going on 11 years on active duty.
The long hours of military life is still slow lane mentality. I have a website catered to fitness minded individuals and runners. I am an elite marathoner (2.19.35 PR) and am trying to shy away from doing 'what I love' and assisting runners in answering their 'needs and wants' via my own site but still feel I don't have a business plan. I have had my site for a little over 6 months and only receive 150-300 visitors per day (341 for a high). Have 82 subscribers, have read numerous books on 'passive income', 'outsourcing', and people going on trips around the world quitting their jobs etc etc. MJ's book was the first book I have read where BS wasn't being thrown around. I know people ARE doing these things but just seem stumped right now. There seems to be so much to learn and so many avenues to take.
I believe in the fast lane mindset and fully am behind MJ's viewpoints, otherwise I wouldn't be here. I will be in Afghanistan for the next few months and will be debt free when I return. This will be a great feeling but still need to network with other like-minded fasteners to turn my website into a REAL business. I, like many of you, read about MJ's profits of over $100,000 (a low) and over $200,000 per month with his website...it astounds me that people can make that type of money that quick (but realize it was a process to get there). I will spend 6 months in a war zone and will have made less (even with the extra pay we receive).
It isn't the $$ that I'm after. I want the freedom to enjoy time with my wife, not deal with an alarm clock and have the time to pursue my own goals instead of handling tasks and missions from my superiors. Again, am extremely honored to serve but a lot of things roll through your mind when your over here.
I didn't come here to advertise my site but am thankful this forum supports those of us striving to do the things MJ mentions in his book.
