Summary:
Get ready for one of the most fascinating entrepreneurial stories we’ve covered thus far on the show. Chris Cooper was the founder of Quote.com, which, as you’ll see, powered the finance portals of everyone from the search engines to the online traders like E*TRADE. But, prior to that… let’s just say Chris Cooper has done it all: degrees in Applied Physics and Electrical Engineering; a job testing nuclear weapons at the Nevada Test Site; several years making his living as a professional gambler in Las Vegas; several years making his living manufacturing illegal drugs, Breaking Bad-style; a stint in prison where he learned to code; proprietor of a subscription-based BBS; and of course, founder of one of the web’s first sources of financial information.
