Carlos Fajardo is a young self-made millionaire from Stamford, CT. In middle school and high school, he hustled to make money. One of his first businesses in his early days was to burn songs into CDs and sell them to people who wanted a custom mix. Carlos is technology-driven and with his computer skills, he would fix people's computers that had viruses and things of that sort.During Carlos' Senior year at the University of Connecticut, he got a summer internship doing actuary science for an insurance company. He absolutely hated it. He wanted out because he did not want to be trapped in a 9-5 job. Having to work in a cubicle like a slave for the next 40 years was not in his plans.That same summer, Carlos dabbled with Instagram when it was extremely new, and not what it is today. He learned how to buy, sell, and flip pages to make money. Having gotten scammed or making his money back in a couple of investments on Instagram, he decided to make a page of his own. A funny video meme page. His pioneering idea of publishing funny footage from the internet directly from his phone ultimately made him millions.
