I know some people that are successful in their own right but no one mega successful. A lot of my friends are other single guys who don't have kids and are doing whatever they want to do. Seems like everyone I know is pretty happy with how they make a living and the other options they have.

With that said, a common theme I talk about with my friends is having a passion project. A couple of my friends have ideas we throw around but none of us have acted on anything yet. At some point I gotta act on something and expect to fail and learn something.

Seeing how we grew up during the biggest tech boom in history I'd imagine some of you know people or stories of wild success from a good idea that was acted on. Tell me good stories plz
