Then he had a video testing wireless internet connections using satellites and his staff a couple km away.
One thing he said was "okay, so we're on the top of my parent's building..."
Next scene is the staff panning out from the outskirts and it's literally the tallest building in the middle of the entire city.
I just went OH, so THAT'S how you're paying 15+ employees and have your own building with your name on it. It wasn't youtube revenue and product plugging after all.
Why don't these guys just say no to the money and start from the bottom so they don't go through life acting like they have to prove something. Would be hard to say no, but would probably feel a lot better making it yourself. |
