So he openly admits selling a $3 pair of glasses for $65 (now ~$28 on the site), and use Fiverr to buy fake reviews... not sure if this post will accomplish anything good. Unless the whole revenue story is bust and this is a desperate, shameless attempt at generating traffic.
Yeah this guy should be considered a scam artist and seems damn good at it.
Arent most (similar) companies scam artists at some level? What percentage of markup is considered not a scam?
“Perhaps the biggest issue for me personally was not providing people with real value, something I now take pride in.”

The older I get, the more I have come to realize how little contentment one can gain in life by being a rent-seeker.
serious question: can you expound on this based on the article posted?
I don't think you know what rent-seeker means...

Lots of seemingly unfiltered advice. Glad it was written up, not sure what larger lessons I should take away.
