There is always a prize for success. Starting small is not a sin, remaining where you started is the problem.
The secret is: think big, be ready to sacrifice, be hopeful and above all seek the hand of God.

Rightly said bro!

No one starts his/her career at the top. Experience really matters here and often, a bit of time, to succeed. Even the exceptional entrepreneur and innovator, Steve Jobs, spent quite some time trying to discover his purpose and direction in his early years, abandoning his job as a designer of video games to travel through India. The early lives and engagements of mega-successful people can be eventful to ruminate on and we might, from there, learn one or more things about our own paths. The following are the early jobs of 6 famous billionaires.





ALIKO DANGOTE (Petty Trader)

As of July 2016, he had an estimated net worth of $15.4 billion. The richest African entrepreneur owns the Dangote Group which has interests in commodities. The company operates in Nigeria and other African countries, including Benin, South Africa, Senegal, Cameroon, Ghana, Ethiopia, Tanzania, Togo and Zambia. His entrepreneurial skill began at a very early age when he was in primary school. He would buy cartons of sweets (sugar boxes) and sell them just to make money even though he came from a rich background. Today, the same passion has led him into building a stupendous business empire.

. This one said Dangote was a petty trader. Someone that started business in 1980 with 500, 000 Naira at a time when one Mercedes-Benz car is 5, 000 Naira. #Ihear

Gentleman, I guess you didn't take your time to read through that part. Now, go back and re-read. The salient words I want you to look out for are "Rich Background" and connotatively, "Passion".

I have been studying with keen interest why some people are so successful and why others are not.

My search even took me to the book of life, the bible . I chose to study the character of Joseph because he seems as the most successful grass to grace story in the bible.

Joseph had no capital, he had no business, had no house, all he had was DREAMS. And in one twinkling of an eye, his age long dreams when he was still 17 years old turned into reality at the age of 30.

I have also listened to several messages by succesful Americans and always spotted that they magnify one word above others in their speeches and that word is DREAMS.

Now, i ask you, are dreams enough ?

Thank you for your insightful post.
No, dreams are not enough, we need helpers of destiny and one to solve/interpret his dreams, like being a solution provider to them. They in turn interpret your own dream(greatness) .

Your dream is like negative terminal of a power source, you need to locate a positive terminal(helper, support) for the flow(manifestation) .we were never created to be or achieve alone

Gentleman, you should read more. You need to know more. That can help you have more insightful views and opinions about things. I understand that you are trying to inspire people to know that they can be whatever they want to be, by sharing 'humble' background of some rich men. In as much as you're trying to do that, take heed hence you misinformed them. To address what you raised up: The salient in what you posted are these.
The title said 'Early jobs of some famous billionaires'. Dangote is bolded which means he is a famous billionaire. Also in bold letters is the world 'petty trader'. This means that is his early job.
