Quarter Life Crisis

Here’s a list of the top entrepreneurs under 30. Remarkable people.. I actually met #9 on the list a few weeks ago.

#9: Raj Lahoti, ONLINE GURU
Age: 25
Location: San Diego
2006 Revenue: $11.5 million
Employees: 15
Year founded: 2003
What it does: After a few years dabbling in Internet domain acquisition and traffic brokering, Raj Lahoti set out to build up one of his brother’s domains in order to provide meaningful content in an area that, well, generally lacks it. DMV.ORG, the “Online Unofficial Guide to the DMV,” aggregates information from the (often dreaded) Department of Motor Vehicles in each state — all in one place. Users can access information on everything from applying for a license to ordering a driving record, without the aggravation of standing in the DMV’s endless lines.

I had no idea he was such a big deal. He was obviously bright, ambitious and very articulate, but some people may feel that he might be a little arrogant and cocky. I guess $11.5M in revenue at 25 just might do that to you? Dot com kids these days…..
