I loved Internet businesses, having built and sold one. And I loved the financial business, despite the fact that it was almost all a scam.

I'm scammed almost every day. Or, if not scammed, at the very least someone tries to scam me. Usually more than once a day.

I made so many mistakes in my first successful business I'm almost embarrassed to recount them.

The American Dream never really existed. It was a marketing scam.

Nobody wants to make me a rich man. In fact, most people want to make me a very poor man. I can guarantee some people fantasize at night about how poor they can make me.

It's sold more businesses than it has managed to buy.
