And his verification is for a hundred million dollars liquid plus.
And his verification is for a hundred million dollars liquid plus.
And so the guy has over a hundred million dollars.
And he did it all through two or three of these apps and I believe with close to no employees and he did it over around like eight or ten years.
We have a friend who it seems like might get rich very quickly here. Richer. uh Let me explain. Richer.
They created a product or a service or an app and they every day they're posting a chart of like the growth of this thing and it's like a early version of a hockey stick.
It's like yep, we went from doing a hundred dollars a day, five hundred dollars a day, thousand dollars a day, today three thousand dollars a day, today's going to be nine thousand dollars a day.
Pretty quickly like you know, fast forward two weeks this person's going to put a chart in there that's going to show them doing two hundred thousand dollars in revenue just today.
And it's going to be nothing has changed.
It's just they just let the growth carry on.
And you see that and you're like, wow.
That's that's winning it like that's the HOV lane, that's the fast lane where you could just go in and you can win faster like jeez, I didn't realize that.
I thought I got to bust my ass for ten years.
And the reality is this person has been busting their ass for ten years building up the skills so that they can launch a new product and they can do let's call it five to ten million this year in in potential profits.
Now this person, if you remember uh many months ago And they told us They told us this exact this exact thing.
They go Yeah, I'm just thinking about ideas that can make I forgot what they said, ten or fifty million dollars.
I want to make ten million dollars in a year, fifty million dollars in a year.
And I was like, okay, like you know yeah, sure.
You know, and I want Jessica Alba to you know, add me on Snapchat right now.
Like but yeah, not necessarily going to happen.
Like you could just say it, but he was like, "No, I've been studying.
There's apps that do that in the App Store."
And he gave me 12 examples. Yeah.
Yeah, he's just showing us screenshots and examples.
He's like, "That does that? Yeah. This does that? Yeah."
And so you now you see 10 of them and all of a sudden first of all, I never knew somebody who even stated a goal like that.
So just hearing it for the first time was like, "That's interesting."
I knew people that would say, "I want to build a huge company, a billion-dollar company." That was normal. I'd heard that before.
I'd heard, uh I want to get a high-paying job.
You know, I want to make, you know, 500k a year at at this company. I've heard that before.
I had never really heard somebody be like, "I'm looking for a way that I can make $10 million in 3 months."
That was actually the exact thing.
It was, "How do I make $10 million in 3 months?"
And so I was like, "All right. Well, never heard that. That was new."
Then I thought, "Well, my brain doesn't come up with any examples of how to do that that's like, you know, doesn't involve, you know, putting a ski mask on and walking into a Wells Fargo."
So like, you know, what And then he gave me 10 examples.
And so I was like, "Okay, well, now I got 10 examples.
Number 11 doesn't seem so far-fetched at that point."
And I remember coming to talking to him and being like, "Dude, have you heard anybody think like this, talk like this, come up with ideas like this?
Because I believe that there's great power in questions."
And I'd never really heard somebody ask the question, "How do I make $10 million in the next 3 months?"
And once that question was asked, now my brain has to start coming up with answers.
And at first, my brain was struggling.
And then as he gave me examples, it started to get better and better and better and come up with how you might do that.
And now it's literally happening.
Like that that scenario is actually playing out right in front of us.
What do you think of this? I think it's awesome.
I think I think it's still too early.
I think anything that comes fast will go away fast or can go away fast.
But he called his shot and we are seeing on a daily basis whether it's it's coming it is in fact now coming into reality.
And I think it's awesome.
I think that there's ways I think Peter Thiel said it where he's like, "What's your 5-year goal?"
And then someone says their goal and he says, "Cool, how can you do that in 6 months?"
So, I usually believe in that.
This guy took it even further, which is "What's your 5-year goal? Do it in 3 months." And it's awesome.
And there's another guy who I know that's done this and he's public. His name is Allen Wong.
Do you have the uh the the app on your iPhone that lets you listen to police scanners?
It's like the police scanner app.
No, but I know I know of these apps. These apps are weird.
Yeah, it's like 5-0 radio app, I think like 5-0 radio app.
And this this guy, Allen Wong, he posted in Reddit in 2013 and he basically said um uh he said, "Hey, I'm Allen Wong.
I was told to create an AMA here." it up here.
Yeah, you want to you want to read it?
Or you read faster than me? Here he goes.
Yeah, he goes, "I'm a Ask me anything.
I'm a person in his 20s who went from rags to riches during the recession." He goes, "How I did it? I develop apps.
My most popular app is called the 5-0 radio police scanner.
It lets you listen to police chatter around the world.
You've probably seen this used in the latest Spider-Man movie, although they rebranded it.
Uh and as of 2012, my apps have been downloaded by 20 million people."
By the way, this is 10 years ago he wrote this.
So, he did this in the 2008-2009 recession.
an update on it that I can give you in a in a second.
So, so he goes, "My parents were raised in the slums of China.
They fled here with my brother to New York.
My mother worked in a sweatshop in Chinatown before she quit and became a homemaker.
My father was an herbalist before he passed away unnaturally 3 months after I graduated from college.
After his passing, no one in my family had a job.
Uh and so he says, "I found a full-time job at Columbia University.
I was the only one with income, so I taught myself how to create apps in my free time.
And I created apps on the weekends with hopes of making some side income.
I didn't expect this to make me millions."
And then he says, "Where does he say his money?"
I don't think he says his money somewhere here, but uh yeah, go ahead.
Fill in the gaps for since So, he doesn't say it there, but I found it.
So, there's this other subreddit that I talk about all the time called FatFIRE, and they've got this particular type of flare called verified by the mods, where the mods, the moderators, look at the income or your balance sheet.
They look at something and they say, "Yeah, we believe it what you are saying is true."
And his verification is for a $100 million liquid plus.
And so, the guy has over $100 million.
And he did it all through two or three of these apps, and I believe with close to no employees, and he did it over around like eight or 10 years.
It's uh He, by the way, he says, So, he has three apps. He has 5-0 Radio.
Then he has Police Scanner Plus.
And then he has one more called What is it called?
Um Hang on, he's got three apps that were in the top like the top 100.
So, so he goes, "This means I'm the only person ever in app for history."
This is what he wrote at the time.
This was back in, I don't know, 2012, 2013, something like that.
"I'm the only person in history to have in the in the app to have three apps in the App Store that were top 10 overall in the paid and free categories at the same time."
Yeah, man, this guy's cool.
And then he If you Google his username, it's Rego Apps, so you'll see his post from FatFIRE, and he talks about what it's like to be different tiers of rich.
And he's has all types of of like, you know, when I was at this thing, this is how I felt.
When I was at this other thing, this is how I felt.
And now, according to his flare, it's over $100 million.
It's a This is So, you were asking, "Who else do I know that's done this?"
I don't know this guy, and I can't verify that any of this is true, but it's pretty interesting, and it might be true.
Well, yeah, and and I don't know the speed that this guy did it, but still amazing.
By the way, we should get verified in FatFIRE.
Why aren't we posting in FatFire?
That seems like a a That's our Those are our people.
We should have hang out with post there.
I post there under a name that no one knows me as, but I would post there more.
Would you post Do you Do you You use this? Yeah, I'll go browse.
I don't I never post, never comment, but I'll I'll make an account and I'll Let's do it. Let's get verified. Let's do an AMA there.
Yeah, so look, this guy's thing says, I fat I found his username.
He goes, I fat fired at age 25.
I make $10 million a year in my 30s.
10 Yeah, 10 million plus a year in my 30s and I have over $100 million according to which has been verified for the mods.
And here, this is what he says.
Someone says, "What's the difference in millionaires or in money levels?"
He goes, "At 100K to a million, you can tip very generously and be okay with that.
At 1 to 5 million, you can fund some medical expenses and maybe a college college tuition or two, maybe for an extended family member or friend.
At 5 to 20, you could pay off a handful of college tuitions."
I guess they're asking about donation.
You can pay off a handful of college tuitions and some expensive surgeries.
And then he jumps to 50 to 50 million, you can create several nonprofits and overseas that that are overseas and help people at a community level like building a school or a local community or something.
So he like talks about this constantly throughout this subreddit and it's very, very interesting.
