Origins of Begg-Smith's fortunes

begg-smith | freestyle | medalist | moguls | tech talk

So apparently this Gold medalist in Moguls today (born in Vancouver, competes for Australia) is an Internet hotshot millionaire who keeps and apartment in Vancouver and drive a Lamborghini living the rock star life.  Word is that he and his brother own a software biz but i dunno which one.  All very shady it seems ;-) rather spammish

Begg-Smith is a business mogul off the slopes. At 13, the entrepreneur founded an online marketing company that he says has grown to the third-largest in the world. Begg-Smith originally started the Vancouver and New York-based company, which designs search engines and pop-up window blockers for about 5,000 websites, to fund his ski career. Thirty employees work directly for Begg-Smith.
