My first business was burning custom CDs 💿 for classmates in 5th grade. Downloading DMX/Sisqo/Britney Spears songs on Napster/Bearshare took 3hrs over dial up and I charged $20 for each CD. Did pretty well until iTunes came out!

I secretly took a gold loan on a chain gifted to me by my parents on my birthday. I invested the loan money on May 21, and after a few hours, the market crashed. It took me 9 months to recover and clear my debt. hard lesson learned the right way. Conviction and consistency brought me here.

we used to gamble school supplies on 5-card draw. I remember someone also running a candy resale out of their locker.

Our classroom was in the 6th floor, the vending machine in the ground floor. Got the ok to put a fridge in the classroom. Sold soft drinks for a 100% profit to kids. Was cheaper than in the vending machine and they did not hate to go downstairs.

Sophomore year I ended up losing $2000 in coinflips to my buddy Dixon. Started at a quarter and played double or nothing- he only made me pay half because he felt bad but I’ll bet that’ll never happen again 😒

When I was 7, I organized a very humble fantasy football for the 98 fifa World Cup. Very fun until adults found out and banned it 😂🤷‍♂️ Also, not fun when Brazil lost to France in the final game 🥲

Deployed SETI@Home with my code to the high school’s default Windows image, to boost my team’s score. It worked for a bit… until one day the entire library and labs got re-imaged, and the temp in the library went to >90 degrees. There was apparently a huge spike in the electricity bill also…
