Hi everyone

[DeletedUser397]

Here's a quick intro on myself and why I'm here:

I'm 27, living with parents (because I was previously in credit card debt, which I've since gotten clear of), and I just started reading the book. I’ve been living on the sidewalk for most of my life, and my parents (among others) have been trying to sell me the slow lane philosophy, as they’ve ‘made it’ quite nicely to some extent, better than most do with that philosophy. However, I’ve always been skeptical of the slow lane, not wanting to give up my today for tomorrow, yet at the same time haven’t been able to quite make it with any of my business ideas.

I’m here because I have a lot of big ideas, but rather than ranting about them I now recognize that I have to first put myself in a position financially where I can make things happen for myself, rather than be tied down to the sidewalk for life. I also need to tend to my ‘vehicle’ as in getting healthier and living a more balanced life.

In the immediate short-term, my goal is to save $15k in the next 6 months, so as to be able to quit my job and start working full force on my IT business. My username is a reminder to myself of what I need to keep doing.

Thanks for reading, and I’m very very grateful to be here. I think MJ’s story is quite inspirational, and the book is definitely what I have been needing for a long time.
