While talking girls into posing naked for cash.

It was expensive too. I remember spending $500 on a single hard drive - and getting a free "zipp drive" along with it.

These days... People who couldn't program the time on their VCR twenty years ago can build a website on their cell phone with little effort.

It's gotten too easy.
However, I did make 7 figures out of a 1500 dollar point and shoot Olympus 3030
