I cashed out with $9 billion after being acquired by Google. Woohoo! How did I do it?

Spent my first $1 million on PR consultants. Didn't build a single product or hirer any developers. Went to Bubblecon 2008 to raise some VC with my army of consultants. With $20 million in the bank I then bought Super Bowl Ads until I got acquired. Yay!
