I remember one of our network guys became one of the first ISP's in the area with a "T-1" line, and several shelves of modems. He started with 30 US Robotics V.92 modems stacked on those click lock bookshelves.

Dude sold out a few years later to the local phone company for a couple mil.
I ran 2 BBS'.. One porn-related, one not.. and I developed a PCBBS clone.. Was also a millionaire by 23..

Say whatever you want.. but I know business.. more so than any of you ever will.. and I started coming here for that reason.. business, that is..

You're going to have to be a lot more entertaining than that for me to keep posting ;(

Just keep up your usual ranting though, it's kept me here even after the interesting people (aka Mike, Serge, Nick, etc) "left"..

And they also likely know every adult BBS of any magnatude.
Knew of WildRose and HomeGrown BBS before the Timlakes bought it but were modeling for it.
Knows how Lee Noga got in trouble for "scanning" pictures she didnt own.

Straight out of the cockholster handbook... if you get busted out for your boasts just claim your in Europe so those Americans dont know... a less sophisticated ploy is to claim its an "inside joke".

And I am, along with 3 of my business partners.. millionaires, by far.. regardless of if you want to believe it or not.. Might be bordering to billionaire, for the biggest one..

Two to three previous owners of this board are as well (on the millionaire end).. as Im sure you are aware of, even if you might like to pretend Nick@Ilynx isnt.. he wasted enough money on silly things, but he was in the (legitimate, of course) mailing game when it paid off big time.. and trust me when I say that there were easily millions per month in that alone..

Wow....you made it, dude. I am so impressed by your success as we all are I am sure. It is a humbling experience to be in the company of such a high roller. Perhaps you could share with us your pathway to your current success.

How about you just keep dressing up in stockings and leave the business end of things to the big boys?

And sure, thats not really me being serious, but I still think you get the point..

There used to be a few "high rollers" on this board.. but anyone that spends half their day bullshitting about donuts isnt going to be someone whos all about business.. (and sure, GFY is just a pool of annoyance, but even there IS still more business to be made than here..)

I dont really care though.. and Im guessing you dont either.. If it wasnt for the fact that I, once in a while, get bored,I wouldnt be posting here at all..

Hes busy inventing a clone of another imaginary million to go with the nonexistant software.

And Ive been in both Serge and Nicks homes too but not living in the basement.

And it wasnt a Bentley I rode with Jon in when I was in vancouver it was a mini cooper.
You can pack a lot of ass in a small car like that though.
I wonder if he bought that Mustang he was eyeing back then? I already had a 4 cylinder car and chose to buy a Charger SRT-8 instead.
And like this board... I paid cash for it too.

Good. Write me a check, and I'll believe you. If you already know everything, why are coming here again?
