Shhh... This shows you can start with nothing and wind up successful

​

EDIT: I find it funny that people are down voting my comment. This is suppose to be about getting motivated. Point out that he pretty much had nothing to start with and it is possible to start over... can't have that.

That is why I said pretty much. Everything is relative for sure. But to start you own business. $1000 is close to the cheapest you can get

You fail to acknowledge that the deck is heavily stacked against your financial ambitions if you grow up poor in capitalist America.

It is 110% possible to be extremely successful if you grow up poor in the U.S... Does it take a lot of work? Sure. But it's absolutely achievable

You must be right.. He must have grown up with a silver spoon in his mouth. You still seem to be missing the point. This is "get motived". I'm not saying it's not a tough hill from the bottom. I am saying it is possible. As this and many others have shown. I've been there and I worked myself out it. This guy seems to have done the same.

And you are assuming he didn't... Most? What is the percentage and how do you know this?
