Hi all. My name is Andrew. I am 32, have a masters degree in Psychology (with the accompanying parasitic debt) and have always worked in sales. I finished the Millionaire Fastlane over a three day business trip and it really clicked. I was definitely a card carrying member and preacher of the slowlane up until now. I thought Dave Ramsey was where it was at and I've been working for over a year on my "Debt Snowball".
Here's my current plan now that I've read this. Over the three days that I read the book, I recognized the need to take immediate steps. I reached out to an acquaintance that's been trying to recruit me for a while and negotiated my way into an independent contractor agreement as a sales rep that allows me to get perpetual commissions on anything I sell. In the last two days, I've set up meetings with who will potentially be his largest clients by far. As soon as I can get my basic needs covered (I'll need just under $10,000 a month, cause you gotta account for Uncle Sam) by those perpetual commissions I am quitting my job to focus on building my business 6 days a week while selling a bit more for 1 day a week just in case it takes me a while to get something successfully off the ground. There's a lot of details in there and a bit of risk but I feel like the major pieces are lined up. I think if I REALLY PUSH, then by December or February I should be working on my Fastlane full-time. That gives me about 6 months to develop a list of potential Fastlane opportunities and stack rank them. Looking forward to learning from you all!
