These nerds won in the end

Subject: These nerds won in the end

8 high school friends weren't invited to parties so they launched a $500 Million company.

Revenge of the nerds or what?

I would never have guessed you could make so much from something so simple.

What did they create?

The card game "Cards Against Humanity"

It started when they had nothing better to do on New Year's Eve.

When others heard about the game they wanted it.

So the friends posted it online as a free PDF.

But people wanted the actual cards pre-printed for them.

So the founders ran a Kickstarter campaign to fund production.

Their goal was $4,000 but they quadrupled that.

Within a month Cards Against Humanity was Amazon's number 1 selling game.

2 years later they were raking in 12 Million in sales. These nerds were rich.

I bet everyone wanted them at the parties now.

Cards Against Humanity has stayed relevant with crazy marketing stunts.

Stunts like making 30K selling cow shit. (Yes actual cow shit. You would get it in a branded box sent to your house).

They made 70K in a single day running an anti-black Friday sale. Where they convinced 11,000 people to give them 5 bucks for nothing.

Right now Cards Against Humanity is making over 50 Million in revenue and is valued at 500 Million.

All from a silly little card game some high school nerds thought up.

I love stories like these.

Now you may not be able to come up with a card game that could make you a millionaire.

But you could learn from a millionaire, copy his system and at the very least replace your wage.

Any questions, just give me a shout.
