Have a good idea and want to make money out of it ? just do it. This is also the advice given by 17-year-old Nick D’Aloisio. The British schoolboy
a mobile phone news app(应用软件)and sold it to Yahoo for about $30 million.
Nick got his first
when he was 9 and he used it to create movies. He began writing apps
the age of 12. In 2011, he created a free app named “Summly”. It can divide(把…分成) news stories into different groups and help its users to read what they want in an
and fast way. The app had been downloaded (下载) almost a million
before he sold it to Yahoo.
Nick said he had the
of “Summly” when he was preparing for a history exam. He felt so frustrated(受挫，灰心) after he searched for some information on the Internet. There was so much information he wanted on the Internet, but it had not been ordered. He decided
something about it. At last, the clever schoolboy turned his good idea
something real. How will Nick
so much money?
The teen millionaire(千万富翁) said “…I will get a new computer，too. but at the moment, I
want to save and bank it.”
