For most aspiring online entrepreneurs, “making it” means achieving success in your business. But what exactly is business success anyway? And how do outwardly successful online entrepreneurs define "making it"? Here at Mirasee FM, we wanted to find out, so we asked a group of diverse online business owners what success means to them. Their answers and insights surprised, moved, and inspired us. In this podcast, accomplished online entrepreneurs discuss what making it means to them, provide tips for online business success, and share important lessons on business and life that they have learned along the way.

How Options Trading Builds Wealth Faster Than Index Funds
Special "Business Revenue Leak Checklist" offer free at http://www.mrse.co/leak. Is your 401k actually building wealth or just protecting it? Kam Dasani reveals why options trading delivers 20-30% monthly returns while index funds keep you stuck. Learn how he lost $300K before making his first million and built a system that lets busy professionals profit without becoming full-time traders. Guest Bio: Kam Dasani is a former Silicon Valley tech professional who climbed the corporate ladder and was earning $250,000 a year, only to realize it offered no path to the three things he truly wanted: time freedom, location freedom, and day-to-day flexibility. Determined to break free from the corporate rat race, Kam discovered what he believes is the simplest and most efficient investing strategy to achieve that goal. After learning from former Wall Street traders and bankers, he mastered swing trading, a strategy that allowed him to keep his full-time job while generating semi-passive cash flow within just a few weeks, rather than waiting months or years through traditional investments like index funds, 401(k) plans, or real estate. Today, Kam earns multiple six figures a year using the same swing trading strategy he learned more than eight years ago. He now spends his free time teaching others how to use the same approach to create greater financial freedom and build a lifestyle with more flexibility and independence.
