When I was a young lad, my mother always instilled in me a creative spirit. She also told me, “Never give up on your dreams, Alex.”

That’s why I kept drawing silly little doodles well into adulthood. Even if I knew deep down that my artwork would never amount to anything.

I mean, who would actually pay money for my hand-drawn doodles?

No one, I thought.

But come to find out, I was wrong. People buy all kinds of artwork. Even doodles from no-name artists like me.

Thanks to my buddy Rex, who turned me onto NFTs, I went from a broke millennial living with my mom to the richest person in our neighborhood.

Last month, much to Rex’s help and encouragement, I launched my very first NFT art collection on the Ethereum blockchain. Netting me well over $750,000 in just seven short days.

Are you curious how I did it?

Well, here’s the story of how I turned my creative masterpieces into a high-paying gig in the booming NFT economy.
