Hello all!
My name is Matt and I was lucky enough to stumble upon a youtube interview between John Sonmez and Mr. DeMarco (@MJ DeMarco ) 4 or 5 days ago. I had been looking for this forum for over year and had not even known what to call it.
Last year I had begun a journey to become a financial adviser on top of my full time job. I was successful in acquiring all licenses from the state and even landed a client or two. I quickly realized that practices that are used for the clients are not the practices used by the advisers, and I quickly lost heart. I have been looking for the correct path to success ever since.
Hearing Mr. DeMarco's no BS book, "The Millionaires Fastlane" was exactly what I needed to get my fire again; for the first time in a long time I feel hopeful for my own future.
My background (below) is technical so I feel confident I can create some form of automated web based business. What I lack at the moment, is the business knowledge. I would be grateful for anyone to point me to the right resources to learn that information.
My current plan is to develop a personal blog and begin branching businesses off of that. The blog will be a journal (for a lack of a better word) of my journey to wealth and freedom. My hope is to document my various ideas, decisions, and projects during my journey, so that it may inspire another in the future. I would be happy to share once the blog is live if anyone was interested.
I look forward to picking your minds in the future and growing as a person in this forum. Thank you for your time and input in advance!
Background:
I have a degree in Computer Science and work as a full time project manager. I realize that holding a job is not ideal, and I hope to change that ASAP. I am 26 yrs old and currently live in CA. By most peoples standards I am doing pretty well for a 26 year old, but I hate that I am a slave to someone from the hours of 9-5 M-F.
