There are many ways to earn money. However, one seventeen-year-old teenager from America came up with a brilliant and at the same time very simple idea to achieve his goal. He decided to be a parasite on the company Apple and phone iPhone 4, specifically on his white variahere.

As we all know Apple postponed the release of the white iPhone 4 for technical reasons (it is reportedly very difficult to produce parts in the right color). About white iPhone 4, however, there is great interest, and one enthusiast named Fei Lam decided to take advantage of this. The young man, who speaks fluent Chinese, contacted an acquaintance of his who works at Foxconn (one of the suppliers of spare parts).

The New Yorker then ordered shipments of white parts for the aforementioned phone and began customizing iPhones in his home workshop. At first, he could only manage two devices a day, but after setting up the website whiteiphonefournow.com started selling white goods in bulk. The young American's business was even covered by the leading American television channel CNN. You couldn't ask for better advertising.

Fei Lam himself said that he would like to invest the approximately 100 USD he earned in his education at the university in New Yorku. However, it seems that the young entrepreneur has major legal problems. Fei Lam was contacted by a private investigator and accused of selling stolen goods. The problem is most likely in the import of the parts themselves. They were allegedly taken from the factory "under the arm" and illegally shipped to America. The young man now faces a fine of hundreds of thousands of US dollars and several years in prison.
