23 Year Old who made over $100k in 24 hours from Bin Laden’s Death

Media - Posted: May 7, 2011

Maurice Harary

You have got to hand it too Maurice Harary, the 23 year old NYU student, who as soon as the news came of Osama Bin Laden's death, did not go out celebrating on the street with the rest of America but instead rushed too his dorm room and began creating the site, Osama's Dead Tees.

By 3.30 in the afternoon he had got the site live and was selling his tees at $12 each. Tuesday evening, and Maurice had seen 10,000 T Shirts sold. You do the math. And if that's not you're strong subject it's $120,000. That's right $120,000 in a little over a day!

And yeah I know, you had the idea too! But did you take action?
