maybe now it’s time to find a rich old woman
1999 - I was desperate to find a way out of my mothers house and out of school. I started thinking maybe now it’s time to find a rich old woman, my last resort to wealth. Early in the year I found a flier advertising Unlimited long distance for a flat rate of $59 per month. I could tell this was a new company and new technology, and I wanted to get involved. The company was International Communications Corporation from Boca Raton, Fl. I called them and asked if there was a away I could make $$ promoting their service. They signed me up as a reseller making $25 per new customer plus 10% of the recurring phone bill.
I made fliers and advertised the service in the local news paper. I made a web site called LongDistanceFlat.com that was programmed to sign up new customers online. At first my web site collected the customer information, then I would print and fax the order. When I started the service was only available locally, but the company grew fast and then it was available nationwide.
I started learning how to promote my web site online to get more customers. I started getting checks in the mail. I was happy earning money this way. It took allot of work but I was working for myself without a boss on my back and making my own hours, I liked it. I spent all the $$ I earned delivering pizza on promoting LongDistanceFlat.com.... Craig :)

Nice story craig...please post in detailed how do you start in all your businesses..want to hear it from you
Good story, humble beginnings. Most people who make something out of nothing have one thing in common, they are hustlers. Hard working, just keep trying things until something works.
Very humble indeed.

So that's how you came up. Man that is a good story. Great hustle from the beginning. A lot of people wouldn't even have had the idea to call the company to get in business with them. Anyways man I gotta move to FL too since ya'll gas is $2 a gallon and our is $3.
I started out selling mp4 players I bought from China that could play video & music. The new Ipod nanos at the time couldn't play video so I made a killing on the school bus bc no other kids knew about Ebay. Man I miss those days. Making money was so easy. I don't understand how I had so much focus at 12 years old and now I have a lot less at 24. Don't get me wrong. I hustle HARD, but it came to me too easy at 12.

I don't think it was so much the focus aspect but rather the time-period. But now you are in a much better time-period as you are now into Crypto. 0h it's going to get easier ;)
I hear you! The world was a lot simpler I guess. Or maybe I was just thinking smaller back then. Ready for this crypto boom!
Yes, keep doing your thing. Nice video. Enjoy the time with your family.
aww I cant believe how big One is! Lol@ "dont start any trouble Sun" his face so cute! I like your outfit Julie! Remember when Cybershots were like $350 years ago? Those were good prices in there :)
Moral of the story. Start your hustle now, in away you can, it pays, literally.
Keep doing you Craig, much love and success to you and the fam.
I respect the smart hustle.
Great job you've done!
