    It’s actually not as crazy being a tech millionaire nowadays since so many people build a great service and then just have it bought up by the competition.

    It said right in the article Salesforce bought his product in 2011 and thats what made him a millionaire. Pretty good way to use that life changing money for the better of others and not just himself.

      A million dollars ain’t what it used to be. Won’t even buy a house in many cities anymore.

        A million will get you a home in just about any city. Whether it’s a really nice one or not is the question.
