Ingredients To Being A Young Millionaire

Ever wonder how someone makes it BIG? Being a young millionaire may be closer than you think. Like many people in our economy today, childhood friends, Kelly Flatley and Brendan Synnott found themselves out of a job in 2002.

What these soon-to-be young millionaires were about to discover was sweeter than they could’ve imagined. Kelly, the health-nut, decided to make some all-natural granola in her kitchen one day, and asked Brendan to come over and help. “The entire food industry has become so full of processed and artificial ingredients”, she thought.

“It didn’t really make much sense why one would want to put that in his body–especially since ‘you are what you eat.’ Immediately, these young money-makers knew what to do. They each invested a couple of thousand dollars, moved back home, and started selling hand-wrapped parcels of granola at streer fairs.

They called their business “Bear Naked”. After pitching it to a local grocer repeatedly, without avail, they decided to raise the stakes. They reportedly showed up outside his house just after dawn, with yogurt, fruit, milk and their profitable granola in hand. Alas, their grocer was not home. Fortunately, though, his son saw them and said “Come on in.”

The rest is history, as this product is now being sold in the US and Canada by such major retailers as Target, Safeway, Costco and Kroger. All these young millionaires needed to get started was to smell the success coming out of their own kitchen!
