So heres my situation and I would love any feedback and advice from you guys...Im 29 years old, well 30 in 2 months so i'll just say 30. I dropped out of highschool, didnt go to college, and have been working crappy job after crappy job since. I have been a sidewalker my entire life, and so has my entire family really (mom and sister both work at walmart and are as broke as I am). I made 40k per year for 2 years of my life and the rest of the time its been 20k or less per year. Not that it matters but I do have an uncle that is fairly successful with a business but he lives in another part of the country so I havent seen him or talked to him in a decade. Ive thought about calling him and asking for some advise buy im afraid he would take it as me asking him for a handout or something which im definately not...im fed up with the way things are and im ready to change. For those wondering also my jobs have been retail clerk, security guard, food server and some other typical stuff you get with no training.
Here is my plan of attack, and like I said earlier all feedback is really appreciated.
Heres what I have right now.
-$1200
-A computer and room in my moms little trailer.
-A copy of The Fastlane Millionaire.
-My health.
-no job, no car, no degree, no special training, and no special skills.
My plan...
1) Get a job, any job. Have to have money to exist and work the rest of my plan.
2) While im working on getting a job ill also study TFLM and look for needs in the market.
3) Once I have a job and have found a need then ill plan from there but until then I think its pointless for me to make further plans because i dont even know which of the fastlane roads to take..author, inventor, internet business, or real estate.
I am starting from scratch and have no direction. Any questions? Any advice?
oh yeah also I have two goals in my life right now and I think they are realistic.
1) to have a networth of atleast $1 million by the time im 35. (then i will decide what path to take from there)
2) to get down to 205 lbs with single digit bodyfat percentage within 8 months from today. Im about 250-260 lbs now. I have put on alot of weight in the last couple years.
