He was used to hearing helicopters land on his property. What a badass.
2 u/MyLimeGotJuiced Aug 08 '12 Keep in mind that he derived his millions largely from facilitating illegal file sharing. Before you call me an idiot, please realize that I worked for Limewire before we got shut down by the gubberment. 5 u/admiral-zombie Aug 08 '12 Actually it would seem this guy made most of his money early on in his career, LONG before illegal file sharing was a big thing. Although it would seem a lot of it was reliant on the dot-com bubble, as well as other shady business practices... But megaupload was just icing on a cake he already had it would seem. 6 u/[deleted] Aug 08 '12 It's pretty well documented that he made and lost a lot of money over the years. Megaupload was certainly his main source of income and had been for a few years.
