Why would anyone? What has he done in this biz? Chris, now that is ANOTHER story
Off the top of my head he runs a huge empire of free traffic sites.
He is obviously well respected in the industry.
He organizes the TGP event every year.
Would also make sense for the ambusher to get get ambushed himself.
This will be interesting as Chris is on the processing end of the industry rather than the webmaster/sites/galleries side of things. I wonder if the "how and whys" of how most of us wound up running sites rather than processing for them is a lot different.
Well, be careful what you agree to do folks. hahaha61514;
OK, here goes?.
1. Why did you get fired from Paycom? Discuss
Well, thanks for serving me up a powder puff 1st questions Sleazy!
The answer is that I was caught looking at porn on the Internet during office hours; apparently, an unacceptable practice.
But seriously, I am unable to discuss the particulars of this event, which has since been resolved to everyone?s satisfaction. I am extremely happy that it happened, as I have learned that EVERYTHING happens for a reason. It has never been more true than at this time in my life. So while there are those that will be pissed that I am not dishing dirt here, others will appreciate that these things are best left unsaid and undisturbed. But thanks for asking.
Chris I look forward to reading your interview! We have had the chance to hang out a few times in curacau hopefully I will be able to get there this year. I just gotta get MIP growing and Ill see you there!
2. How many nightclubs did you own? Which ones? Talk about this time in your life.
I have owned and operated about 6 nightclubs in all, starting from my 18th birthday (back in the olden-days you could have a liquor license when you were 18?). They were wide and varied in size, scope, vibe - everything.
My first place was a real live Disco in 77?, 78? and 79?. Lighted dance floor, puffy sleeves, gold neck chains - the whole thing. It was like ?Boogie Nights? and ?Saturday Night Fever? combined, with a twist of ?Blow? for you lovers of movie analogies?.
I owned a couple of other Disco-like places, a Pool Hall and then ?Billy Bob?s Texas - The World?s Largest Honky Tonk? in the mid-80?s?
Then a place in NYC and then to LA in the mid to late 90?s.
The LA Club was by far my favorite, although it was a huge pain in the ass ? legally; we did not have a dance permit, but that is a day long story for another time. But I met a lot of the people that later followed me to Paycom, like Keith Hill, who was my Manager and Johnny V (who I actually followed to Paycom) who was the Assistant Manager at the LA spot. It was a Hip Hop club; I think one of the first in LA We had every sports, music and gangster celebrity you could imaging through there. It was nuts, but a lot of fun and I met some incredible people that are my good, close friends today still.
I loved the club business. Shaliza wants me to open another. If Tony Morgan would do one with me I would be all over it again. Nobody, anywhere, has a better ear for music and understands what people want in their entertainment experience, imho.
The service business, which is what I am in now and was in then, taught me a lot. Put me in a room with a bunch of drunks, music and lights and I feel at home; thus my love for this business. hahaha61514;

Talk about dodging the question, I understand you prolly have to keep lots of details private but....
3. How much money have you processed over the years? Ballpark
Billions; maybe 6 or 7 plus? It is hard to say. But a lot of transactions, especially if you include drinks bought and sold?
4. Did you buy or lease the private jet?
I leased, not Paycom, me.
5. Are you the sole owner of epassport now?
Yes. ePassporte (with an extra ?e?) But my key team members have an upside stake as well.
6. Why did you take epassport? Discuss
It was the company that I started, worked on, gave birth to, along with a lot of great professionals and partners. But it, as opposed to Epoch, was MY baby, so to speak.
The future for this company and its products and services are so wide and varied that it can and will keep me very interested for a long time. It will not get old?

I like how a few simple clear words can kill rumors!

With one CrackRevenue account, you can test today's main adult programs, with better creative than those programs have to offer themselves.
I can't lease any bling from Ron... His interest rates are really too high for me, and he always has his boys around to rough you up if you don't make your payments.
