This forum is about learning the ways of the fastlane. Why else would someone be here?

I could actually care less about the learning about ways of the "fastlane". Because that term is relative.. What i do enjoy reading on the board are the opportunities that are out their and how people evaluate them. For example the person who has a bed and breakfast or the person who does cabins, that it more interesting to read how they are making changes for maximum profitability, and using the ideas found here to impliment into my business plans.. Instead of "oh well that is slowlane, because he's not bootstrapping it like a starving artist.

My 1st cousin is just retired from the NFL and will soon be inducted into the hall of fame, considering he's a millionaire, but he had to WORK a JOB to become a millionaire, from what i read here, thats the "slowlane" way.. Maybe he should of started a blog instead of Football lol..
