Description
In the late 1990s, a young college student named Joshua Rothman caught the dot.com fever. So did two of his close friends. These three undergrads fancied themselves budding high- tech executives, entrepreneurs who were going to create some cutting-edge business in the new economy, sell it off for untold riches, and then do it again. They worked and worked, they hardly slept, and out of their dorm rooms they created an early version of an internet dating service and insurance business. Alas, having invested the better part of their college career in this business, the outfit that they hoped would buy it was not interested in it; they had no other suitors; they had bills they could not pay. It was their senior year in college, they were graduating, and their business dreams came to naught.
