Before he was even a teenager, ambitious young Adam had vowed to invent a million-dollar company by age 21. At 15, he was launching all kinds of start-up websites in pursuit of that promise he’d made to himself.

After the typical growing pains that come with start-up businesses, Adam finally hit a goldmine when he developed Mobile Monopoly, a sort of “Mobile Market For Dummies” app that has become the prime “textbook” any mobile market student is going to need should they want to succeed in the industry.

But that wasn’t even the real goldmine (despite the six-figure profit it earned him). His true winner was YepText an app that allows businesses to advertise through texting – which might annoy the crap out of the rest of us, but I don’t think Adam the millionaire is too fussed about that small fact.

“If someone says, ‘There’s no way, you’ll never make money online, everything’s a scam online, blah blah blah’, they’re lying,” Adam laughed.

“You don’t have to listen to what other people say. Trust me, I went through that day-in and day-out with my friends and stuff. They did not believe that I could make money online, and then as soon as I did, I think their jaws dropped to the ground – so just go for it.”
