DAY 1
Hello, Fast-laners. This will be my daily journal to document my journey.
Intro: About 3/4 of the way through "The Millionaire Fastlane" and decided it was time to join this forum. Fantastic book thus far.
I am a beginner in my journey.
26 years old, hold a bachelors of science in Geology. Decided 6 months after graduating and working a corporate job, that I wanted to travel. I went halfway across the world to Australia and New Zealand and spent 2 years there. I had a life-changing time, and learned some much-needed lessons, found and lost love. I spent the entire 2 years as a side-walker. Somewhere down that journey, when I didn't even know if I could eat the next day, I realized what money really meant.
You see, I had a chip on my shoulder since I was 18, I had the determination and wanted to prove to myself I could do something.
Instead of focusing my effort on making money, however, I focused on getting girls. It worked, at 18 I was a fat virgin who got bullied, and at 26 I've been with over 100 women and a few meaningful relationships. But, I realized, all of that meant shit. I was with my last ex, and some days I didn't know what we were going to eat. We lived in a campervan, and most weeks couldn't go on tours or anything because we were broke.
Well, now I made a choice. I'm tired of living broke, and the 9 to 5 will never be for me. I want to make a difference in the world, and I want to be filthy F*cking rich. I've always had entrepreneurial traits in me as I'm great at sales and good with numbers. It's time I put them to good use.

Current Finacial Position:
- 20 K in debt.
- 4$ to my name.
- A possible job offer to have some income flowing in for ~15$/h
Current Steps Taken:
-Designed a dropshipping store from scratch with a branded product, as an intro into the online business world.
-started retail arbitrage, day 2. I have 6 office chairs currently sitting in my garage that I got for free, trying to sell on fb marketplace. I've gotten replies but the current condition of the chairs are turning a lot of people off if no replies in 3 days, will put my hand in trying to repair the damage on the chairs this weekend.
-About to go to my first entrepreneur networking event in one hour from meetup, will report back tomorrow.
-I started two Instagram theme pages to try my hand at social media, they've been running for a month now, working on them for about 30-45 minutes every day.
Next Steps:
- Planning on starting this job by next Monday.
-In the meantime, keep working on the Instagram theme pages and retail arbitrage.
-Will have to ask to borrow 5 bucks from mother
(absolutely embarrassed by this) to put up an ad on craigslist for my tutoring service- the last ad I put up last week, only client I had bailed. Either this or wait until my first paycheck comes in two weeks and do it then.
-Plan to attend at least 2 other networking by this day next week.
-Once I have my first 500$, going to use 300$ to fix my camera, and 160$ for buying a sample of my product from China. From there, work on product photography and making a product video for my ad.
