The Real Real John Chow
written by John Chow on May 6th, 2007
Bob Buskirk may have shown you the real John Chow but I’m going to show you the real real John Chow. This video, taken at the library, shows a side of me that very few people will see.
Yes, I am the only dad in a sea of mothers (and some grand moms). I guess all the other dads have to work. One of the advantages of being a Dot Com Mogul.

Reply to this commentnah.. that’s not the real John Chow.. that’s just his feminine side.
Reply to this commentWhat it shows is that John is a good father
Reply to this commenti totally agree. here in LA when i see a dad taking care of his child by himself, i pretty much stop and stare in amazement. it’s not often that i see that — but i don’t know about anyone else. i think it’s great
i did notice that he was the only dad in the pictures on sally’s site 
if making this money allows him to spend more time with Sally then there’s nothing evil about him at all…
Reply to this commentyes, and I think that is the most important thing a man can be!
Reply to this commentWOW is the only way I can describe that video.
Reply to this commentbut it’s fun to do whatever you want with your kids whenever you want when you’re livelihood comes from the Internet and not Accounting on the 6th floor.
Reply to this commentYes, it definately gives you the freedom to spend more time with your children.

Reply to this commentThat is so cute! You look like such a great dad John
Reply to this commentApparently, John isn’t that evil afterall!
Reply to this commentHe is evil with others than theirs kids! have you ever seen a crocodile mom taking its kids with those giant jaws?, and minutes later hunting a cow with the same jaws?
Reply to this commentLol,^^^ Wes! He’s desperate man! What a dream that would be to be able to have that much free time, and be able to always be available to your family, and still make a 6 figure income.
Hopping to live the dream too

Reply to this commentJohn you are definitely a mogul and a great father.
Reply to this commentI’m the same, I work at home.
After I drop my boy of at kindergarten I go over to the grocery store and pick up a few things. The other shoppers are usually grandma’s (buying bread and cigarettes) and old men.
I’m the only one in the shop at that time that is not a retirement or pension plan.
Reply to this commentThat must be the greatest reward of being a dot com mogul.

Reply to this commentMan that got me all misty eyed. Moments like those are priceless. That was somethin special

Reply to this commentI would guess your also the most famous parent in the room. Have you ever thought about it that way?
I bet you no one else in that room knows
Reply to this commentI think you’re right.
Reply to this commentyeah hi5 dude … for me family always comes first
I’ll drop ‘everything’ for them
Reply to this commentHaha too cute
Reply to this commentaw how sweet
Reply to this commentgood video. how often do you go to that?
Reply to this commentEvery Tuesday is baby day at the library.
Reply to this commentGreat! That’s wat freedom at wok is for
Reply to this commentOh man, I could’ve never imagined you could do all this. I mean how can it be; Wow John, nice video. I’m still amazed and laughing at the same time.
Reply to this commentAn efficacious dot com mogul a couple of hours a day, serious party boy by night, and a loving husband and father 24/7 — just shows how truly well-rounded you are, John. Oh, and FEARLESS, too, for having the guts to show your soft side like that.
Reply to this commentAnd attend a group of all women and grandmothers
Reply to this commentYeah, just shows that John is VERY secure about his sexuality — way to go, Dad!
Reply to this commentI like that version of the “real” John Chow much better. A cute baby will always get my attention faster than a picture of a drunk guy with another bottle in his hand.
Having been to my share of conventions, we can always spot the newbs - they’re the ones all flush and red-faced, carrying a bottle or can and looking like they just fell off of the “WOW Man, am I really here with free beer??” bus. I know you’re this “mogul” and all, but honestly - watch the image. You could be turning away incredible business deals from across the room and never know it.
Reply to this comment“WOW Man, am I really here with free beer??” doesn’t really apply because that picture was taken from my party. Everyone else got free drinks.
Reply to this commentCarrie, i really dont think that taking a free beer will harm any business opportunities for you. Quite a lot of big deals in the world are done over a pint or on the golf course. Clearly, if your taking the free beer and just getting drunk you will not make any great deals but having the free beer and just being social isn’t going to harm any deals.
I just dont think that you can sterotype someone with a beer at a convention because theyre having a beer.
theres more to life than work
Reply to this commentis that your new dot com mogul apprentice
gratulations for beeing a father!
Reply to this commentLooks like Johnchow was the only father in the room..
And the other husbands at work? :), money isn’t about the money, its the time and freedom it can provide you
Reply to this commentHa, its nice to see that the Mogul has a personal side as well. Great video… gave me a few chuckles.
Reply to this commentDid i see you singing in that video John??
Reply to this commentYep, I was singing too.
Reply to this commentLOL is there anything you CAN’T do, John?
Reply to this commentbreak dancing?
Reply to this commentI wonder what John’s vocal range is like?
Reply to this commentI use to break dance in high school. I was actually pretty good at it. You should have seen my moon walk.
Reply to this commentLOL I rest my case!
Reply to this commentWow.. You fly the baby!
Reply to this commentKilling bloggers with cuteness one post at a time, eh John?
Reply to this commentThat really warms my cockles!
Reply to this commentcute John. definitely shows a different side of you. Since most of the time, you’re evil and evil. LOL. Definitely a feminine side.
Reply to this commentIf baby Sally could talk, I’m sure she’d say how proud she is to have John as a father. I mean, a sweet dot com mogul for a dad???
Reply to this commenti think i heard them singing, rowie, rowie, rowie, … brother john, brother john…
Reply to this commentUmmmm did anyone else notice that almost every person in the room is Asian? I mean isnt this supposed to be a public library in Canada???
Im happy that Canada has many different cultures, and I think that Canadians are proud of our multi-cultural make-up but mmmm this might as well be Hong Kong.
Anyway its just an observation but I have seen other community’s in Canada that are like this and I kind of wonder if this is a good trend…
Reply to this commentThat library was in Richmond. It might as well be Hong Kong.
Reply to this commentsome of our grand grand fathers colonized their land before and now it’s payback time
