Look at this kids face.

He was making $500K per cold email sent. Reached half BILLION people per month.

Earned $10M+ profit in the 1st year of the business. Sold it and "retired".

Here's what his business was and how he built it: (this is my story) 👇 It all started in 2006. I had already built a massive Google Ads business from my parent's basement.

I was paid to drive search traffic to advertisers.

It was a solid business that generated many millions in profits, but I didn't like being dependent on Google.

At 19, this kid built a Google Ads business that quickly made over $30 million in profit. The kid is me.

I was the only employee (in a basement).

At one point, I was Google’s 2nd largest advertiser after eBay.

Here’s the story of how I made this happen and what the biz did: A few years ago, a stack of envelopes w/checks arrived on my bday. They were class action settlement checks.

These were remnants of my first big hustle.

The business was performance marketing. I used paid search to execute it.

That combo just crushed it.

Don't give your kids an allowance.

Pay them interest instead.

I made a system that naturally instills the power of compounding and makes them understand money. I've used it for many years.

Here's a thread on how it works, my downloadable worksheet, and the results 👇 At a very young age, I explained to each of my kids the concept of saving money.

However, I told them saving is not the main goal.

Making sure money works for you while you sleep is the most important component.

They were fascinated by money working during sleep.

If you'd have put $100 into Jim Simons' Medallion Fund in 1988, it would be $400M+ today.

By contrast,

$100 in the S&P 500 in 1988, would be $2,000 in 2022. (roughly)

Let that sink in.

Both companies are equal parts creative and dominant in their respective industries.
