In the same boat as you age-wise, but it was probably kind of similar. As young as I was back then, and just knowing a hint of HTML, I still managed to stumble upon people trying to make their own dot-com and hearing pitches for websites that were just as pie-in-the-sky as some NFT projects.

Like I remember one back then that had an idea (I don't even think they had the tech, just an idea) for a VR headset and an omnidirectional treadmill and acted like they were sitting on a goldmine in the next 2-3 years and if I would just kindly make a website for them (for free) I'd get in on the ground floor.

Clearly their idea never materialized, or at least never found success.
