Pat Flynn was rocking his career as a young architect.
Actually, Pat was one of the youngest people in the firm to ever become a Job Captain. Things were going great. He was working hard at the job he always dreamed of. He just got engaged.
Pat was one of the top performers in the company, but when the economy tanked – it didn’t matter. Everybody around him were losing their jobs. No one was building anything. The architecture market dried up completely.
One day, Pat’s Time Has Come.
He was called to his boss’s office. His safe job was gone. With no openings anywhere, Pat was stuck. What will he do with his life?
He remembered that he heard that some people were making money from the internet. As it turned out, due to his rigorous studying habits, he was sitting on “internet gold”. That’s how the story of one of today’s most inspiring and influential internet entrepreneur began.
Today Pat is the proud owner of Smart Passive Income, and is running a business generating over $50,000 monthly. How? That’s what we’re going to talk about today.
