13 Absurd Ways People Have Made a Fortune
It’s hard to judge a multi-millionaire for how they amassed their fortune. Unless it was from some dastardly scheme that fucked people over (like some cartoon villain). Any other way that didn’t hurt anyone or exploit anything along the way is A-Okay with us! If anything, we admire the creativity here.

And yes, these may be some odd, downright silly ways to make a fortune, but the fortune was made, and that’s really all that matters. Here are 13 of the oddest ways people have made some serious dough!
