Kelsey Hightower

And that's when I remember like going to like Office Depot where they sell computer equipment and things like this.

And I went in the store and I asked them, it was like, oh, you can get one of these Linksys routers, right?

The infamous blue spaceship looking Linksys router.

I still remember them.

And those things were probably like 50 bucks.

And I remember just buying one and figuring out how to get multiple computers to use one connection.

And so eventually I was like, look, I can't do it as part of the job because we have to do this and we have to leave, but here's my card.

And then they will call you.

And I remember one of the first installations that I did on my own, they wrote me a check.

And I was like, yeah, you could just write it out to Kelsey Hightower.

He was like, no, we don't write checks to people.

We write checks to companies.

And I remember right there on the spot, I'm like, oh man, I need a company name.

And I just made one up, Digital Gateway.

And they wrote that on the check.

And I'm sitting there like, so how do you cash this?

So I went to the bank and they're like, sir, you have to get a business license.

The business license, you could just do business as, you have to do this.

So I'm figuring out, now I'm 19 years old, like, okay, I got to go get a business license.

I have to figure all this stuff out.
