How it all started

Typical college kid just wanting to make an extra buck.......or two

Well to start off, I'm just the typical college student and currently I'm a computer science major. I've been trying to get a new job for the past couple of months to make some extra money on the side to use for myself. Unfortunately my search for a daytime job didn't go very smoothly. And while I was searching, I was also researching about job opportunities and other ways to make money on the internet. There were a lot of interesting people who I stumble upon and they were such a great inspiration to me. These people were brilliant ! For instance there was this one guy who created a website that is simply used as an advertising website. Some of you may have heard of "Milliondollarhomepage.com," which is essentially a 1 paged website (From what I can tell) that serves as a giant internet billboard. His concept for this site was to sell 1 million pixels worth of space and he would sell each pixel for $1. I just couldn't believe my eyes when I read that he has actually sold all his pixels and was now officially a millionaire! What's more impressive is that he accomplish all this in a matter of months. Now how mind boggling is that?
