It was just on Global News in Canada. He's in Vancouver I think.

Classic geek with a completely empty apartment except for his rig.

But good on him. Just remember his long thread here about how he did it. Great story.

**marketsmart** · 10-17-2006, 02:38 PM

**RayBonga** · 10-17-2006, 02:39 PM

He is a good friend of mine, he lives across the street from me. He just isnt the flashy type, thats all. Likes to keep it simple.

**soulbleed** · 10-17-2006, 02:43 PM

That's what he says, plus I mean he started his site from scratch, has no employees, it's kinda his baby and something he is proud of. I don't think he wants to part from it yet.

For $120m I would sell my baby. Yes, that's right my genetic material flesh and blood. Shit.

$120 million? let me get the adoption papers ready.My baby is all yours

**squishypimp** · 10-17-2006, 03:23 PM

thats crazy money

**interracialtoons** · 10-17-2006, 03:51 PM

I can only dream of stuff like this.

If something like this happened to me I would probably freak out and jump off a bridge after donating the money to some fucked up charity; or become a rap music star and get shot.

**Spunky** · 10-17-2006, 03:54 PM

Damn..that dude sounds like a smart cookie..good for him

**reynold** · 10-17-2006, 06:01 PM

Wow. He's one lucky mofo.

**Spunky** · 10-17-2006, 06:03 PM
