First time I just spent it all on crazy shit until I was broke. I made my first million selling Beanie Babies on eBay in 1997-1998. I knew it was a fad, but like a sports star I decided not to put any aside and just shit it all away.

Second time I made the money through a torrent tracker I built for TV shows. Then I went to jail for an unrelated charge and everything I had was gone when I got out.
