Pretty funny, I remember 2 years ago BlackPlanet probably was #1 on that list, before Facebook and MySpace. Now look at them.

That reminds me, Friendstar ceo was offered a huge sum of money (i think by google) some years back, for the website. He turned it down. And look at the current state of the website. He must be kicking himself now.

Hah, yeah i forgot about friendster. But I'm sure if a company offered me $1m for a site, I'd snap at it. Not looking to become super rich like Youtube, just enough to live off of for awhile, hopefully invest.

Yeah. 1 million $ = security for life. The amount is large enough for you to make a living of just the interests from relatively risk free investment oppertunities.

But, i guess thats whats the difference between a layman like me and a succesfull man. They are never satisfied, and are willing to risk it all. And, its invevitable that sometime things dont go right.
