The Past Does Not Equal The Future
The Past Does Not Equal The Future by Shaunak Chattopadhyay (a Short Story Contest entry)
As a high school student, Todd was introverted, bullied and had little friends. Now, he is a fitness Youtuber, an application designer at a software company, an entrepreneur, investor and works with multiple companies for sponsorship deals. He uses the money to help fund start ups and provide aid to charities and his family. Despite having a rough time in high school, Todd did not let it define him forever.
