Jeffrey Skoll

Jeffrey Skoll is from a Jewish family who was born in Montreal, Canada. 

In 1987, he graduated with honors from the university with a degree in electrical engineering. 

Skoll soon created two companies, which, however, did not bring him the desired income. 

To solve this problem, the future billionaire went to Stanford to improve his skills at a business school.

It was there that in 1996 Skoll met the creator of eBay, who hired him to work. 

So Jeffrey became the first full-time employee of the Internet giant, and subsequently his first president. 

Skol got this position thanks to the development of an ingenious business plan that allowed eBay to become the company that we know now.

After leaving eBay, Jeffrey Skoll focused on personal fund management and social entrepreneurship

 - investing in healthcare and education in developing countries. 

Now the businessman’s fortune exceeds $ 4 billion, which earned him 134th place in the Forbes ranking of the “Richest People in the World”.

David sun

David Sun is an American billionaire businessman, co-founder and chief operating officer of Kingston Technology. 

Sun is a graduate with a bachelor's degree, which he received by graduating from Tatung University in his native Thailand.

In 1981, Sun met John Tu. At that time both were already engineers, but dreamed of founding their own company and developing

 in this direction. 

Then Sun and Tu decided to join forces, as a result of which they created the Camintonn company, which was later sold for $ 6 million. 

The partners lost the money they earned (as a result of the stock market crash), but they were not at a loss and founded the Kingston 

Technology Company, which in the first year brought them more than 140 million.

Now Kingston Technology Company is one of the leading companies developing flash memory and other computer components. 

San’s fortune today is about $ 6 billion. He takes 90th place in the Forbes ranking.

John tu

Undoubtedly, John Tu was also on our list, because his capital is similar to the capital of David Sun.

When Tu first visited the United States, he immediately fell in love with this country, so in 1972 he returned here again. 

It was then that he founded Camintonn, but what happened to her you already know ...

Since 1987, Tu has served as CEO of Kingston Technology Corporation. 

It is noteworthy not only in that it managed to win its niche in the computer market as soon as possible, but also in its internal routine. 

In an organization, there are practically no differences between management and subordinates. 

Tu and San work in the same rooms as the staff, and devote as much time to work. 

The company lacks ranks, positions, etc., instead, equality and mutual support reign here.

The future billionaire Igor Oleinikov was born in the Moscow region in 1942. 

After the war, his family fled to Iran, where the boy was trained by missionaries. 

In 1957, they came to the United States. His father worked as a housekeeper, and his mother was engaged in housekeeping.

 As you can guess, the Oleinikovs were not rich. 

Therefore, in order to send their son to study at the University of Southern California, they had to work hard.

After graduating from the university, Oleinikov received a bachelor's degree in corporate finance and mathematics, and later returned

 there for an MBA diploma. 

In 1973, he founded Olen Properties, a company specializing in the construction and sale of real estate.

Already in his school years, Brin gained an interest in computer technology and Internet technologies.

In March 1995, Sergei met the future co-founder of Google - Larry Cage.

 After 3 years, they created the Google search engine, but at the initial stage it functioned only at Stanford University. 

Gradually, Brin and Cage began to scale their idea and turn it into a business.

Elon Musk

The head of Tesla Motors Corporation and the founder of SpaceX was born and raised in Pretoria, South Africa. 

As a child, he was very smart, but reserved: at school his “omniscientness” and desire for study were often ridiculed. Instead 

of playing with peers, Musk read books, encyclopedias, and watched what his father-engineer was doing.

It was from his father that Musk received his first Commodore VIC-20 computer as a gift and learned to program on it. 

Already at the age of 12, the boy created his own game, where it was necessary to shoot aliens from a laser gun, and sold it for $ 500.

At the age of 18, penniless for his soul, Musk moved to Canada, where he worked part time at a sawmill and at the same time studied 

at the University of Pennsylvania.

But Kum did not have time to finish it, because he met with the future co-founder of WhatsApp - Brian Acton. 

Brian immediately saw the talent and perspective in this student, so he offered him a job at Yahoo.

When difficulties began at Yahoo, Acton and Coom decided to leave her. 

The Ukrainian immigrant really wanted to get on Facebook, but he was immediately refused. Soon, however, Zuckerberg will regret 

this decision: inspired by what Skype did with international phone calls, Coom creates an application that could do the same with SMS. 

They, you guessed it, become the Whatsapp messenger.

In 2014, Yang sold his development to Facebook for $ 14 billion. This deal at one point turned Coom into a billionaire.

But one day, the future billionaire volunteered to program on a newly acquired computer and immediately realized that he had a soul for

 this business.
