Freedom To Choose

[Erik_Mark]

Hi Guys,

I have had the entrepreneur bug for a long time but never acted on it. I remember reading the 4 hour workweek (I know, I know) and desperately wanting to start a business, but didn't know how, or anyone else who had. Finally now in my late 30's I am 5 classes from a BS in Cloud Computing to realize, I am tired of IT and the rat race. Hoping it is not too late for me.

I stumbled onto The Millionaire Fastlane after reading a few books from the Rich Dad (I know, I know) series and searching Youtube for book reviews for best actionable business books. I feel Mj's book helped put the pieces together for me. I'm 50% through Unscripted as I write this. Thanks to a few posts in this forum, I purchased the items the other day to begin testing for a business idea I've had. I don't want to write and not follow through so maybe after I have some data I will post on it. Very happy to be part of the group and excited for the future!

The hope of freedom\choice, would be to control my time by helping as many people as possible, through making something more convenient\efficient. Possibly like MJ did through a lead generation B to C site. Still searching for the problem to solve, but for now, I'm happy just to try to start selling physical products.
