Morning ya'll! I know I am late to the party, considering Millionaire Fastlane was published in 2011, but better late than never.
Like most people on here I am wanting to make a change in life. I heard about Fastlane years ago but never read it until I decided to make a list of goals for 23. Stumbled upon this recommendation on reddit and reminded me to check it out.

I am making my mantra this year, "If you're not uncomfortable you're not growing". I am not going to lurk anymore but want to be apart of the fastlane community.

40+ year old married dad that is finishing my double major at a major university. (Because that is what I have been told my entire life to do to move up..duh) Been in IT 20+ years. Got all the certs, blah blah blah but never can seem to make it to the C-level suite. Luck and networking seem to be some of it I guess. I can look at most C level position on linkedin and most have a bachelors from like the 80s. I am tired of waiting for someone to decide my future.

Owned a few businesses over the years. Farming and an auto shop to name a few.

I am wanting freedom. Freedom from the corporate rat race where if I don't wear khakis everyday and having to conform to coming into an office instead of being able to work remotely because the boomers will come down on me.

What do I want to get out of fastlane specifically? I am on here to meet people who might have some cool ideas and network with people.
I have the drive and a lot of experience in different fields but not sure where to direct that energy too? I have quite a few ideas for areas not met but I am wanting to find one that is more passive. Being in IT, and having free time at work, I would love to work toward something there. Saas maybe? Amazon fulfillment?

Feel free to reach out and glad to be here!
