    The Internet has changed the lives of millions of people all around the world and has made a lot of people very well off.

    Think about every single person that makes a full or part time living from the World Wide Web!!

    What would they all be doing now if the Net did not exist?
    What would you be doing now?

    I'd probably be, living paycheck to paycheck at some mind numbing "9 to 5". Putting myself in debt, while making someone else rich. Shakes me up just thinking about it! LOL :D

    That is a good one.

    Did you know that the Internet was formed in 1969 by the US Department of Defense's Advanced Research Projects Agency (ARPA)...

    I would be going into business.

    And of course, inventing the internet (or something like it) and getting a patent on it. And charging everyone in the world for usage of it.
