Whilst I salute the guy for showing initiative and entrepreneurship, I wish these sort of articles got less attention (everywhere, not specifically on HN).
These sort of articles are starting to get the feel of the 'Get rich quick' or 'Work from home and earn big dollars' ads you see stuck on walls and sign posts - it's the new Amway.

- kurrent 14y agoThe guy also admits to knowing barely anything about SEO. "I have no idea about SEO, but if I can recall it was something about Web 2.0 blog links, high PR domains, etc." I'm calling bullshit on this whole IAmA
- ck2 14y agoIt's a strange long game to post extended anonymous stories to entice others to compete with you? Eh I guess I am a sucker to root for teenagers to become millionaires, even if there was luck involved.
