UtahPreneur - Inside Utah's Most Iconic Businesses
He Yelled About Laptops on TV… Turns Out He’s a Crypto Millionaire | PC Laptops (Dan Young)
💻 Remember those wild “PC Laptops” commercials from the 2000s? The guy yelling “We love you!” on your TV at 1 a.m.? Turns out, he wasn’t just a gimmick—he was building a business empire behind the scenes.
In this episode of UtahPreneur, we sit down with Dan Young, the mastermind behind PC Laptops, Xidax, and multiple other ventures that quietly made him millions. From selling sunglasses at swap meets to running a crypto hedge fund, Dan’s path to success is as unconventional as it is inspiring.
We talk about the power of personal branding, what it really takes to scale a tech business, and how Dan bet big on himself—even when it meant living behind his first store. He opens up about surviving burnouts, finding clarity through chaos, and why authenticity is still his secret weapon.
If you’ve ever wondered what happened to “The Laptop Man” — or how to turn hustle and heart into generational wealth — this episode is a must-listen.
