I came to USC rom Chicago with twosuitcases, not knowing anybody. But Isoon became active in a raternity andits community service projects. At USC

you really are part o L.A. The nancebackground I received here was crucialwhen I developed the initial businessplan or GeoCities. The act that I couldput together a balance sheet, incomestatement and cash fow statementandunderstand how these three statementstied together, and relate the numbers tothe businessis one o the reasons wewere so successul in raising money.
