    High School Dropout Now Worth $300 Million at 26! (video link)

    I was about to head to the gym this morning and I was flipping through the TV and came across this interview with Gurbaksh Chahal on Oprah. The interview was really inspiring especially for people interested in business and entrepreneurship, so I decided to share it.

    Im not going to spoil the video clip for you, but basically this guy created a company at age 16, sold his firm at age 18 for 40 million dollars. He then started another company called Blue Lithium and sold that a few years later for a stunning 300 million dollars to Yahoo.

    This guy is ballin' they show his penthouse suite and cars....


    WATCH THE INTERVIEW HERE

    I just bought his book The Dream, a few weeks ago. Once I started reading it, I couldn't put it down. It's a great book, I highly recommend it. Thanks for the video link.
