  • mohit - Feb 19 2008 | australia, skiing, advertising, busines, The 4-Hour Workweek

    Read about this guy in "The 4-Hour Workweek". He financed his Olympic gold metal run by starting some IT companies.

    However, Wikipedia is not too gung ho about his actual businesses:

    Quoted: The brothers originally got involved in IT business to help fund their skiing careers. A number of computer security companies have advisories about the companies, indicating that they distribute browser-hijackers and spyware.[1][2] Begg-Smith has been reluctant to talk to the media about them following his gold medal win, stating that their business was technology and it was up to ad customers to decide what type of ads they wished to run.

      Heh. Yeah, I remember when he was in the Olympics and the ahem, shady search people all knew him as a dirty spammer. :)

    I just watched this last night per Mohit's suggestion. It was amazing. The amount of pride, hubris, and cockiness at this company was unbearable. It's an amazing story that makes me want to read the book. Fictionalized versions of this scenario could be quite powerful...
