If I had to pick 3 people that contributed to my internet success that brought me to where I am today, it would be PK, GoGo, and Daniel Sudden. Too bad about Sudden and if he wasn't wanted by US authorities and needed help, even after all these years, I'd wire him $10k today.

Anyway, those three have made a boatload of money over the years and got humble, Fabian, not so much.
Gogo certainly has risen well above his ambition. Who would have thunk it eh?
I finally met him in person in Atlanta at one of the webmaster access years ago.
He had just begun to work on this thing called NATS.

I met PK a few years later in Vegas who certainly did make a bundle with a simple link list. She still controls a lot of legitimate quality traffic. Still no easy task these days regardless of what some aging moron keeps screaming about.

Sudden as he used to call himself on Oprano - well none of us met him because he was busy running from the law. No admiration from me for that guy. Scareware isnt very innovative marketing. Loading code to make someones CD tray pop out and requiring a ransom for it to be removed from the machine is weak.

Looks like its landed him in a 3rd world country with his assets frozen.

The only other guy I never met was mad scientist Robin Nixon.
I saw he had a video tutorial on appsumo the other day along with his book on PHP.

I think he would still be content to run his bed and breakfast inn if the truth be known.

Like .xxx though I think the other shoe with Manwin and accomplices has yet to be dropped. Youd think Fabian would have learned from RB about a low profile after being slapped by the Feds.

As I said before though... hes still not very good at this.
