... and my brain exploded.

Kidding.

His name is Evan, looked like a regular college kid with a beard and crappy clothes.

He went to Brown, I live near Brown, I go to a coffee shop near Brown, he was there...near Brown.

The first question I asked him, "Dude wheres the Lambo, out back?"

Kidding.

I asked him "So at what point did you chose the color of your Lambo, when you made your first dollar right?"

Kidding, again.

I was shocked, here I am, struggling to get a steady income to pay my 350 / month rent.

And I'm meeting, for the first time in my life, a multi millionaire, whos a kid.

Let's be real for 5 seconds, most people dont do shit with their life. They chose to work for someone else making pennies, struggling like everyone else financially, complaining about how hard life is and who they work with.

And I meet someone who actually built something.

Someone who actually created something of value.

Someone who actually provides value to thousands of people.

I wasn't going to be a needy value leech and start asking him a thousand questions about how he did it or how many heads he stepped on to get to the top. I looked him in the eye, said good job, pleasure meeting you, and left.

Then I searched out back for the Lambo.... couldn't find it.

Kidding.

Not sure what the point of this thread was supposed to be.

Anyway, quite an awesome experience, I may never forget it.
