Welcome to YoungHollywood. com. Alright, Jay Williams with Young Hollywood here. Now you're about to hear the ultimate Young Hollywood success story. I'm sitting here with Garbosh or as his friends like to call him, G. Now at the age of 18, G sold his first company for $40 million. But wait, he's now 25 years old. He just sold his second company and it went for $300 million. It feels great, you know, you get to buy a lot of great things. So looking forward to uh looking at what the next 25 years are going to bring. The book we hear is going to be called The Dream. What is the dream exactly? What one's desire wants to be.

Whether you're 25, whether you're 50, this is my way of actually expressing what I went through. So you started working at 16, which is crazy. Most people have no idea what they're doing. You're here 16 years old and you're starting a company. So what what inspired you to do that? I didn't really want to do the normal path. And the normal path was go to college, go go get a degree, maybe get a master's, and then you're 25, 26 years old, you have a lot of debt and you get plugged into society. I'm the big risk taker. I'm a big believer that if it's the right decision, if you're feeling it in your gut, take the risk.

It doesn't matter about failure because all that's going to end up telling you how to be successful. What was the biggest risk you think you've taken? Going up to my parents at the age of 16 and saying, Dad, we gotta have a talk. Things aren't really, you know, working out at school. I didn't really feel myself. I wasn't going to get to the level I wanted to. It was just an inner desire I had. You know, for my father, which is, you know, I'm Indian, so it comes from a very disciplined, education very strong, you're either a doctor, engineer.

The fact that they actually went with me to high school to let them know that I wasn't going to attend anymore was probably the biggest support I had and made me realize, I gotta be successful. So you did these two companies and you're a high school dropout? I don't have a high school degree yet. It's basically looking at all the different ways you can advertise on the internet, using our technology as well as any network to track whatever consumers want to see and connecting the right advertisers to them. This was the 90s that you used the internet. Most people didn't even know what the internet was then. How did you have the insight? When I was young, I was kind of a computer guy.

My parents got me uh my first computer when I was six. I looked at, you know, just what what could you do with the internet? You know, if you look at the American dream at the end of the day, I was the 16-year-old that was able to play around, figure out what uh what you could do, connect the dots a little bit and take the right risk. I'm going to finish that book in three months, so buy it. Whatever I do next has to be special. Sure, you got a lot of money, but what do you do at the end of the day for the world? Probably five years from now, uh I do want to create that foundation. There's a lot of interesting things just in different levels of my life that I want to be able to pursue.

If you just had to sum it up for one person that you know, is out there watching it and and they want to create the next big business. What would you say is the most important thing that they have to do? You gotta take risks. No matter what age you are, no matter what situation you're in. Risks may lead to failures, they normally do. It's realizing that you're going to end up becoming successful from them. You could do anything you want. It's just finding that inner desire and executing on it. You'll make your dreams come true.
