Personal stories 

About my life.  These may inspire you.


Moral of the story

Life does not have to be typical, you can have wealth and be relatively young.  You can travel a lot and not while you're old and grey.  Nothing is impossible if you take action and have goals.  I was born in a 3rd world country and I started off with absolute zero dollars in my bank account.  I was given pocket money of less than 50 cents a day when I was growing up.  My parents were not rich or even wealthy.  I'm not a genius.  In fact I consider myself absolutely very average.  I've been ranked close to last in class in school, and have also been ranked top of the class.  I know other people much smarter than I am, at least in terms of IQ that don't achieve anything with their lives, and why?  It's because IQ has almost nothing related to wealth.  Nor even a piece of paper called education.  What only matters is taking action and setting goals.
