Say hello to you new buddy, friend, homie, neighbor, life sponsor(lol) Eric Martin. You see Mr. Martin back in 2015 took Jet.com up on the contest to get the highest number of people to sign up for a preview of Jet.com’s website.
Eric won the competition and his prize was $100,000 shares of Jet.com, NBD. fast forward to Monday when Walmart announced they were buying 2 year old Jet.com for $3.3billion and Eric Martin is singing “money money mohney, mohhhhney!”
The 30-year-old Martin’s, who works for a custom bath installation company, shares are now reportedly worth in the ballpark of $10 – $20million “Turn that 62 to 125, 125 to a 250” and he didn’t have to slang in the streetz.
According to Bloomberg, “While he waits to find out exactly how rich he is, Martin is thinking about his own startup, Ideadash.com, an online portal that lets people post their ideas for inventions or businesses and get others to execute on them while retaining a stake in the project.”
