Hello everyone and greetings from Canada!
I’ve read “The Millionaire Fastlane ” and I’m looking forward to becoming a part of the fastlane forum community.
I wish there were more to say about me, but I’ve lived a pretty uneventful life. I’m 30 years old and straight out of university I started teaching English as a second language. For a long time I enjoyed working as an English teacher and the low income didn’t bother me much. However, last year a close family member passed away and I had to take some time off from work to deal with it. Not only was it a struggle to deal with the loss of income that was tied to my time, but when I was finally ready to return to work, there wasn’t a job left for me. I looked for jobs at other schools, but all of them would have me work low hours on low income because I needed “to pay my dues” and “work my way up.”
It was a huge wake-up call. A wall full of teacher awards and letters from thankful students meant nothing. I had convinced myself that I’d had a “real” job, but in reality I was just a contract worker close to living on the sidewalk.
To be honest I have no idea how I’m going to start a business or what the next big step is, but after reading “The Millionaire Fastlane ” my perspective has completely changed. I’ve started working with students directly and in the meantime I’m studying copy until I figure it out.
I’m curious to know, are there any other teachers turned fastlaners here on the forum?
Nonetheless, I’m happy to be here!
Thanks for reading!
