Career

He started his first big business with his father in 1986, called The Score Board LLC before he even got his master’s degree. The company worked with famous athletes to sell signed cards to fans.
The father and son got a lot of cards at a flea market before they started their business. They knew how much it was worth, so they had famous athletes sign it and then sell it to others. Their business was a huge hit immediately; in 1987, it made more than $1 million in sales.
The company made more money after that; in 1994, it had higher sales than nine figures. However, Ken chose to leave the company because too many cards were on the market. So, the business went out of operation over the next few years.
