Rich Jerk Kelly Felix Selling The Empire To Avoid Bankruptcy - ShoeMoney™
Shoemoney reports that Rich Jerk Kelly Felix Selling The Empire To Avoid Bankruptcy - ShoeMoney™:
"Kelly Felix says he is just about bankrupt and hoping to climb out of the hole and even make some profit. The source also says that Kelly blew a ton of investors money buying advertising on Howard Stern and fake commercials/tv spots to make it look like he was rich. I tried to reach Kelly Felix for comment but have not gotten a response. I used to chat with him a bit on webmasterworld and some other forums back when he used to go by the nickname KellyandSummer. I have to be honest I thought he was doing pretty well for himself. I see his business is listed here for sale now In the reason for selling it states : Reason For Selling: Multiple owners looking to work on various other projects, separately. The multiple owners thing might mean he has already sold the business and now its being resold again. Who knows." I thought that this was an interesting story, since the Rich Jerk has been an internet phenonmena for several years -spawning spin-offs and mimics. Shoemoney correctly note, several posts back on his blog, that whether you loved or hated the Rich Jerk, his antics showed an keen understanding of how to obtain publicity. In the end, the Rich Jerk paid too much for his publicity, it would appear.
