Everyone, including us, is shouting about how “the old models are broken.” Nobody starts at the bottom of a career ladder and works his way from mailroom grunt to CEO anymore. It’s all bloggy book deals, instant fame, and self-branding.

TVNewser found one success story that proves the old models aren’t dead.

Our favorite quote from the profile, though, is one that has nothing to do with his job:
“I have no angles on my face,” Velshi laments. “I look like a boiled egg.”
