About Me
Hey there! My name is Craig! I came up with an incredibly silly yet brilliant idea one day. It started like this: As I sat in my office at work one day, I asked a couple of co-workers, "what if I launched a website that doesn't quite solicit nor beg anyone for anything, but simply just says 'give me one buck'?". My co-workers laughed with an uncanny expresion of seriousness and curiosity on their faces. We pondered and one co-worker said, "what would you call the site?" and of a couple thoughts, I uttered, onebuckplease.com. As I searched for the URL, I specifically remember one co-worker saying, "if that's (onebuckeplease.com) available, you're gonna be rich". Upon my discovery of onebuckplease's availablity we laughed and continued to laugh as though we were tickled at the stupidity yet reality of what could come of this. Well, after thinking about it, over-thinking it through as well as so many of my friends that I had shared the idea with igging me on, onebuckplease.com is now LIVE, with a reputably secure PayPal account in full operation.Most folks would laugh at the concept and say, "why not?", and some would shrug at it, however, the undeniably winning factor is that its just a simple buck. I remain tickled about the thought that over 64 billion people in the world has access to the internet. What if 10% of those folks laughed with me-and of course, gave me a buck (at http://onebuckplease.com)? What if 1% of those folks laughed with me and, well you know; gave me a buck (at http://onebuckplease.com)? What if you gave me $1 buck and had 5 of your friends do the same and so on on and so on...?At the tipping point of my quest, I've had countless friends, say that I'd end up on the AM shows, on the radio, etc. The crazy thing is I don't even want to keep all of the buck. My thought is that I'd get so-called rich, but that will be measured best by how much I am able to do for others in the long run. May sound noble but its how i was raised. So give me a buck!!!!I think I should remind you (as stated in my profile to the left)that I'm a working class individual, with a college degree, and fairly involved with my community. It should be no surprise that I'm a marketing brainchild...I've been highly regarded by my peers, but I'm just a regular guy on a quest to get rich 1 buck at a time.lol.
