Hey guys, just doing a real quick intro post,

I am a 21 year old with what may be an overactive mind that always keeps me scheming and trying to find a better way to do things, sometimes this has me going in circles and frustrating myself but I think its an asset, anyways I read the millionaire fastlane and here I am, but first a summarized back story;

I grew up in "the hood", mental illness runs in my family and I've always had problems with depression, and grew up doing typical ghetto BS with your sidewalker types. Most of my close friends started "hustling" in high school, I was still depressed and being a mopey little bitch, so I decided I was jealous of those friends and would do that too, that was the first time since I was a kid that I felt good, because I was making money for myself, dealing with my own clients, making my own decisions, I worked constantly, because I needed to see the numbers keep going up, I needed a numerical measure for my success, I barely slept or ate, but I felt awesome because I had a little money and power over my own life, I wanted to build something to be proud of. Eventually I got involved with the wrong kind of customers and got robbed at gunpoint, pistol whipped, and thrown in a ditch. After that I scaled back and eventually quit doing that kind of business, got a "real job", quit cocaine, alcohol, weed, and cigarettes, got a nice apartment and a girlfriend and all that. I am not happy though, and won't be until I make something for myself, an empire. I have had a terrible time with these blue collar jobs and I know I can only be happy when I am working for myself again, legitimately this time. I was pretty damn stupid to do what I did, but now I know what makes sense to me, my mind has been opened after reading the millionaire fastlane.

I feel like some people may have a knee jerk reaction and say I am a lazy money chaser because of my past, but the truth is I built a profitable business on a product with a shockingly low profit margin, I hustled hard, and I NEED to work hard to keep focused and keep my mind from introspecting too much. Anyways here I am, working on finding that first decent idea to run with.

Thank you MJ for helping get me on the right track...
sorry if anyone actually read that post
