How crying in the car with no job began my path to millions

Sam Bashiry was a young man who had fun at university but was going nowhere. He was 25 years old, living with his folks and no job. One day he realised this. "I remember coming home and sitting in the driveway in the car. And, I'm kind of feeling lost. Feeling a little bit like a phony - being that cool kid at school, but really not having any direction of where I wanted to be and what I wanted to do with my life." Bashiry couldn't get out of the car and started crying uncontrollably. Then he realised he wanted to play with computers for a living and so began his business journey.
