So Google still has a gigantic share of pushing business to whoever wants to be on the internet. So... I thought, you know, that's a great place to do work is in that space where Google is such a big player. And if you know kind of how Google works, then you can make a lot of money. And you could also manipulate it and scam people in the same way.

And yeah, unfortunately, I did several times scam some people. And had to pay for it. I was sued a couple of times and basically learned the hard way that it's really important to treat people the way you want to be treated. And I had to go through addiction recovery as well as part of that process. So I've got a background in SEO and addiction recovery.

So that's led me to where I'm at today, which is I have a publishing company. We publish across about 250 websites. People come to us with their content, and sometimes we'll publish it straight up as it is, and other times we have to rewrite it. But my parents work for me, my kids work for me, and I met my current business partner in addiction recovery.

So all these life experiences have really just led me to Using what I learned on the job at SEO.com and the life experience of addiction to using it for good. And I love publishing good, positive stories. I love publishing political stories sometimes if it aligns with things that I believe in. And I love having that choice.

I want to start with some principles that I believe in. I believe that there are

Basically, if you boil it down to the most basic ideas, there are basically three rules of money. One is you have to spend money to make money. And that's always true, I've found, in my own life.
