Erik Finman, high school dropout and entrepreneur. In 2011, when Erik Finman was only 12 years old, he took the $1,000 his grandma gave him and invested in Bitcoin.
At the time, one Bitcoin was worth about $10. He dropped out of high school at the age of 15 and made a bet with his parents - if he made $1 million by the age of 18, he wouldn't have to go to school or college anymore.
He then sold $100,000 of Bitcoin and started a business from his bedroom. He built an educational company, Botangle. Two years later, he sold his company for 300 Bitcoins. When Bitcoin broke through $2,700, he officially became a millionaire.
The key is that he was only 17 years old, so he won the bet with his parents. Instead of going to college, he traveled around the world, visiting Dubai, Hong Kong, Beijing, London, Prague, Sydney, Melbourne, Vienna and Stockholm.
Today, he has an 8-figure net worth. He is a key investor in a Silicon Valley cryptocurrency startup and helped introduce the 2020 Cryptocurrency Act as a citizen advocate.
