here's how Craigslist made BILLIONS

You know Craigslist? That sketchy website where you can find anything from a used couch to your soulmate? Well, buckle up, because its origin story defies all your expectations. So picture this. It's the 90s. Grunge is in, and this guy named Craig is bored out of his mind in San Francisco. But then he gets an idea. What if I send emails out to my friends with cool stuff happening in sf? Fun, right? Except there's a big problem. People actually liked it. So now Craig's inbox is blowing up faster than he can handle. And. And he has a bright idea. Why not slap this bad boy on the Internet? And just like that, Craigslist is born. Fast forward to now, and it's gone from SF's little secret to a global empire of random listings and missed connections. But let's be honest. Where else can you find a job, an apartment, and a slightly used wedding dress all in one place? And here's what's crazy. Craigslist brings in more than $500 million per year. So the next time you're scrolling through Craigslist at 2am, just remember it all started with one bored dude in his email list.
