My dad is my hero. He was also my teammate in 2004 (man I can't believe that was almost 10 years ago now) when we won a fantasy football league for $2k. When we won, he asked me what I'd like to do with the money; go on a vacation? I had always wanted to own a business, so I asked if we could start a business. He said sure, what kind? 

I was really into playing poker at the time, so I decided we should sell sets of high quality poker chips online. I bought a domain name, hired a web designer, and ordered 100 sets of clay poker chips from China (no easy task as I know how to speak zero Chinese). The business boomed and I was able to buy my dad out of the company. By the time I sold out of chips, the demand for chips was dying down since large department stores starting to carry them. I decided to save my profits for the next business opportunity.
