Noob Page and Job

Posted by Kaz on June 23, 2008, 7:25 p.m.

So I added the noob page to the site.

Noob Page

You can add your own noobs if you want to. Enjoy it.


So I got a phone call from my friend's mom the other day. She said that someone she knew needed a programmer for something and it could be big. So he called me and he needed someone to make 4 web pages for him for this new company. We talked on the phone for a bit and scheduled a meeting for today.

So we met at Applebee's and he told me his idea. All I can tell you is that it has to do with VOIP dealing with international customers, I had to sign a non-disclosure agreement. To make a long story short, I get 10% company profits, make 75% of what he does, and be lead programmer. If we only get 1% of the user base to sign up for the service, I would make a minimum of $100,000 a year. For 1%. I shit myself. He's estimating at least 10%, that's an extremely conservative amount(it's a very popular idea). That's a million. He said I'd have a few nice cars by Christmas.

So I'm working on the sites already. He expected about a few months to complete them, I told him I'd have them done in a week or so. If you're asking why me? He wanted someone local(he's only 40mins away), someone he has connections to, and someone without a degree. Why not a degree? A degree doesn't show much. All it says is that you went to school. It doesn't show that you love to do it, which I do and will get it done fast as opposed to a veteran programmer who will take a while to do it.

So, I might be rich by the end of the year =D

Bloody hell.

You're a lucky bugger, you.

When you make your first million, send me a cookie or two, eh?

Haha, I don't think so. The look of the site is already created, I just have to make it functional.

makes £5 an hour at Tesco seem like a rip off.

It sounds too good to be true.

I wouldn't be so excited without even getting the first paycheck.

But if it is not a scam, great for you! =)
