I am CEO of a national debt management firm. We help people get out of credit card debt. My firm negotiates settlements with creditors like MBNA, Chase, First USA, Discover, etc... and we save 90% of our clients 50% on what they owe. At the end of the day I go home and think of how many people we save from Bankruptcy every day.

Finacial engineer. My firm of 35 creates quantitative models and independent research for use by major brokerage firms and hedge funds. We're a pretty unique niche business, but surprisingly, number two in market share.
I'm basically a savant. I'm great with numbers, calculus and stats, writing, race car driving and karate. I suck at most everything else. But, several of these things that I can do well happen to pay me more than I'm worth. So it works out pretty well.

Pimp. Run a wild gang of 45 stinkin' hoes out of the back of a sleazy hotel in the inner city. We're not the biggest operation in town... but we're always striving to "give the biggest bang for the buck". In fact that's our motto. My hoes all have it tattooed across their backs. We do some commercial, but mostly retail jobs. It's great to drive down the street with my friends and point out the hoes and say..."that ones mine". I really enjoy my work. It's a great way to meet a lot of interesting new people. And the money's great! I don't like having to slap my biotches around much, but ya gotta do whatcha gotta do!

Dirk... you got me there. I do not have a book. But I am working on an infomercial. I will probably save writing the book for when I am in prison. I am a real slow writer and am sure it will help pass the time. I'm getting some great ideas from the Martha magazine. Check it out.

It is easy: you need to make money! Therefore a hint from me, an European that got tired of Europe: don't be a Liberal! Use yor mind and logic, don't believe because it is easy to do so! Break your back studing now when you are young and even if you miss some parties, you will enjoy some others later! Trust me, what I am telling you is esactly what I did not do. I had to soffer for 8 years in ugly job before I could start my company and make the $ necessary to enjoy life. Last suggestion: don't get married!
