Have you heard of The Rich Jerk? A fellow entrepreneur once pointed him out to me and I was able to get a hold of his eBook. The rich jerk fancies himself an entrepreneur anti-guru. Well I just read Shoemoney’s blog and saw that the Rich Jerk is selling his business:
…a friend who I trust in the business who is pretty close to 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.
Interesting that this happened. My fellow entrepreneur virtually idolized him.
Kelly Felix, is apparently, the Rich Jerk.

So, is he going to start a new ebook called ‘the poor jerk’ ? it will talk about how he went from 60 to 0 in 5 seconds flat, then recovered from the verge of bankruptcy, along side all those other annoying tv people like–well, I wont mention names.
Perhaps he’s selling because people are catching on to this sca* finally and he realizes the public is on to him.
