How a Kid Entrepreneur Made $30m in 18 Months.

In the year 2013, a kid entrepreneur (Nick D'Aloisio) invented a program that was sold for $30m. Summly was the name of the program founded by the 17-year old. It was an application that summarized an entire webpage for mobile devices. This company was bought by Yahoo
for $30m. Nick, when a little boy, taught himself how to program. This feat was made possible by virtue of the fact that he was creative, and constantly developed himself. The fundamental principle behind this is to see what others can't see. This is where creativity comes in.
The 21st Century is rife with a lot of fundamental societal problems. And, your ability to provide solutions to these problems puts you in a good position to strike it rich. In the recent past, there has been an upsurge of the number of kid entrepreneurs who are taking the world to the next level. They came up with ideas that transformed their financial world. I must point out that these ideas have to do with knowledge-driven technology. With these I've been prompted to ask: Why are some kids very rich, whereas some old men are rather very poor? Is it because of their mindsets? Or, is it because they came from different backgrounds? If the latter is anything to go by, what about some rich kid entrepreneurs who were from indigent families? I think the right answer is 'their mindsets.'
The way we think determines how our lives will be. Nick developed a positive mindset, and suddenly became rich. What makes you that person you are, is the inner person inside you.  i implore you to work on your mindset. If you like this post, please share it.
