Brian Watkins a.k.a. THE EXTREME ENTREPRENEUR goes after Privateer Nation Citizenship

I’ll never forget seeing Brian’s Myspace profile the first time.  It said, “Extreme Entrepreneur.”  I thought, “That’s the kind of thing I’d say.  I wonder who this guy is?”  I read over his entire profile that day.  I also checked out his website.  When I was done I knew I’d met a peer.

I didn’t contact him.  He was working on a project at the time that was very similar to the Privateer Nation called CHANGE THE WORLD CLUB.  Instead I decided to keep tabs on him and that’s exactly what I did.

About 6 months later I got a friend request from him and I thought, “OK, I’m going to see if this guy is really everything he claims to be.”  I sent him a message and we began talking.  We were both very guarded in the beginning.  It’s super funny thinking back on it.  However as we talked our guards started to come down.  One thing led to another and today we are great friends.

Brian has been watching me work on the Privateer Nation project for almost a year now.  In fact he’s the guy who came up with the new logo (thanks Brian).  Last week I talked to him about joining the Board of Advisors I’m putting together and also doing what it takes to become a citizen of the Privateer Nation.  After a few days of thinking about it he said, “I’m in.”

I’m super excited about working with Brian because he’s dreams at a level that would scare most people.  This is going to be a lot of fun!
