re: Guy making millions from redneck gag gifts

Jonah White founded this company 21 years ago. He lived in his parents house and made fake hillbilly teeth and sold them from an 800 number.

He no longer has to make the teeth himself...he owns a factory in Taiwan that manufactures them.

He's not actually a redneck himself--his father is an anthropology professor. Jonah was the leading rusher for the Missouri State football team in 1992.

He's quite the success story. They have an article about him in last week's Bloomberg News. I would have never thought there was that much money in stupid junk such as this.

He owns huge log cabin on a 700 acre property and has a pet black bear, bobcat, and red fox.

I saw a show about him one time ... on Fox News I think it was.

He lived in a cave for awhile.

I saw his house in the show, the pet bear, which he should let-go, and the other eccentric stuff he has.
