The quickest way to get rich is to hang around rich people.
So get yourself a tidy haircut, put on a sharp suit, prepare a good marketing pitch, arrange a meeting with a hedge fund, sell them on your vision, use their money to buy a multi-billion dollar company while negotiating 20% for yourself, pay yourself a million bucks a year as the CEO, (mis)manage said company for a couple of years, and then quit keeping your stock. When the company is sold on in an all cash deal to the next crowd trouser a billion dollars yourself, easy peasy ! That's the American dream folks !
Mr Baazov has gamed the system harder than anyone could imagine, when's the book & film coming out?
