Hi drakesuyat! Rags to Riches stories are very much inspiring. I think they had endured all the hardships in life and they were rewarded for the efforts they made. I really hoped to become one of them someday. I think many people really wanted to be rich, and I am one of them. I am still working hard to live a better life. Next time, I'll be venturing unto business. hahaha.. Happy mylotting!

Almost every one has a story if they are still in ragfs but unfortunately only a few get out of the trenches and become smart and rich themselves, unless they are cheated, there's no way a person can be successful with out getting hurt at first.

hello drake,
there's no doubt that these people are very innovative and genious entrepreneurs. i don't know my key yet in becoming successful in business since i have seen other business fall down after months of being there as a start-up.
probably, back then there wasn't much of a competition in the market unlike now. i think this is one thing that we need, investment and entrepreneurship
