Growing up in a small California town, Huseyin Aksu always had the entrepreneurial spirit. In middle school, he started selling everything from Star Wars trading cards to song lyrics (this was the pre-iPhone era). After working for his college newspaper, Huseyin decided to start doing a fantasy football segment.

That idea quickly turned into Fantasy Couch, the largest independent fantasy sports site in the world. Now, ten years later, he’s dishing out fantasy football advice for a living.  Here's how he did it.
