.Com Millionaires: Where are they now?

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the well,-cmdrtaco-lives-in-michigan dept.

Sivar writes "They came pitching gee-whiz business plans and painting visions of integrated platforms, enabling technologies, and wizardry beyond compare. They created billions in wealth that seemed built on--and that all too often evaporated into--thin air. More than thirty former .com millionaires, what they were, and what they are now are on Fortune.com. One on sabbatical, one awaiting a prison sentence, there are some interesting transitions some have had."

    Who said he raped anyone? He took a minor across state lines to have sex. Nobody said the minor didn't want to go. Admitedly having sex with minors is not a pleasant idea but morally if the kid wanted to go so be it.

    Don't forget that america was founded on the principal that young females were supposed to have their first child before they were adults.....

    No, he didn't even do that. *He* crossed state lines. He flew to a conference in which the police officer lived. He arranged to meet her. They met on the boardwalk. He suggested they go to the beach. Boom, handcuffs, jail.

    No child was ever involved.
