Never be fooled by education systems that prioritize memorizing texts as a criterion for intelligence. Intelligence and education are two different things. In the picture is one of the world’s biggest billionaires, Jack Ma, in his childhood.
Jack Ma is one of the richest people in the world, and his life story of becoming a billionaire will inspire you to never give up.
Jack Ma was born in 1964 in China to a very poor family, making his studies very difficult.
After finishing his studies, he applied for jobs at more than thirty different places but was rejected by all of them. The saddest part is that he attended an interview at a KFC restaurant with 23 of his colleagues; all 23 were hired, but he was not. One of the KFC employees told him, “You can’t even get a job sweeping outside because of your laziness.”
Today, Jack Ma is the richest man in China and the 17th richest in the world, with a fortune of USD 57.9 billion.
He owns the company Alibaba, which facilitates online businesses.
Probably, the owners of the companies where he applied for jobs now wish to meet Jack Ma and shake hands with him.
The KFC employee who made fun of him by calling him lazy might now wish to be hired by Jack Ma.
