I just graduated from college a month ago, and am very much so on the fences of whether to be a practical, responsible adult with a boring job or to be ambitious by following my passions in hopes of making it big. As you can imagine, my thoughts sway on the reg — Mike Rowe, who I’ve always been a big fan of, gave me a convincing pitch this morning towards the more conservative route. But then I found out about Garrett Gee and his gnarly success that is just way too cool not to love.
After Garrett sold his app startup, Scan, to Snapchat for $54 million, he decided to take his wife and their two kids on a “permanent vacation,” according to Bravo.
According to their website, Garrett met his wife, Settie, while they were both serving their Mormon LDS missions in Russia a few years ago. After their missions, Garrett went on to play soccer for LDS-famous Brigham Young University in Utah. Early on in his BYU tenure, he founded the Scan app. By the time he completed his NCAA eligibility (at age 26!) in the fall of 2014, Garrett dropped out just shy of graduation to attend to his wife, kids, and take care of business with Scan. A few weeks after his last game, he sold the app to Snapchat for $54 million in December 2014.
Now with their two awesome kids Dorsey and Manilla, they travel the world permanently. That’s right, they have so much money they can live in hotels without having an actual home base.

I’m honestly at a loss for words. This couple is super wealthy, extremely beautiful, but somehow manages to stay composed enough to have an awesomely likable personality.
And now I have a reason to keep chasing my “goals and dreams” for at least another 24 hours..

Nah fuck that guy
I’m no geneticist, but for a dude with who looks like that, those are some blonde-ass kids.
“The seed is strong.”
I bet they’re like that Mormon family from South Park that you want to hate but they’re just way too nice
I still hate them.
In college (club sports lyfe) we always used to get our asses kicked by BYU because their freshmen are all 22 years old. Their wives would come to the games. Shit is unreal.
LAX? They would beat the shit out of us because grown men > hungover assholes.
Got murked by BYU in lacrosse as well. They’re all full grown, and in my experience, they’re just mean. You’d think the Mormans would be nicer–their defenders were psychopaths.
Exactly
We once lost to the Air Force JV team 22 – 1. Talk about feeling like a completely worthless piece of shit….
A.) That Mike Rowe PragerU segment was excellent, highly recommend. (I presume that’s what you’re referring to, I didn’t click the link)
B.) Damn that is the life.
The kid being face to face with a leatherback turtle isn’t the best idea in the world… Those things have thousands of teeth give it a Google
They named their kid Manilla?
$54 million and his wife still wears a onesie at the beach. Do better.
I’m no doctor, but I think she’s doing just fine.
I’m so ridiculously jealous I won’t even feel better talking shit about his man bun or his silly capri pants
