BadBoy25: this is the only Billionaire I respect . John D. Rockefeller . He is the richest man in history . he was worth about 700 billion dollars until the US Government got jealous and dissolved his Company into the numerous oil companies we have today such as Chevron,Mobil,Shell etc.
He was lending the US government money during the great depression a lot of people thoughts he was the president .
His great grand children are still billionaires . the rockefeller family seem to have a high life expectancy. they usually live into their 90s and 100s . John D rockefeller's Great Grandson David Rockefeller just turned 99 years old on june 12 .

bushdoc9919: So,here is the reason why these school drop outs are billionaires

1.In the developed world,it is far easier to set up a business because light and water are constant.(In Nigeria,your overheads are eaten up by generator costs).

2.The education system in the developed world(at all levels). is good at training students in problem solving. As an example....the guy who invented that spray you saw used in the World Cup when free kicks were taken invented it after getting sent off for arguing with the ref about the position of the ball for a free kick in a game he was playing in....he is a footballer.(Now in Nigeria,we will never think of that because our education system is just facts in,facts out).

3.Western cities do their utmost best to make themselves attractive to investors.And they do this by improving themselves. Micorosoft has its HQ in a out of the way American town...because said town made themselves attractive (Nigeria? Most Nigerian communities are busy chasing away the non indigenes to care).

How can we have our Bill Gates and Mark Zuckerberg? Well, it starts by changing our education system into a problem solving one. Students in JSS2 in a school in the North,for example, can be given a barren infertile piece of land and told to grow maize on it aspart of their Agricultural Science practicals, instead of just planting maize in the school farm.....while students in SS2 can be given a project to improve maize yields in the same school farm. And in one year....you have a fresh crop of problem solvers.

BadBoy25: Excuse me , Do I know you?
You think anyone on Nairaland is likely not to be a millionaire? thats ignorance .

priscaoge: They were determined to be successful because they have set a goal which must be achieved not only through education but through other means! When U are determined,u will make it. Where u are today doesn't matter,what matters is where u will be tomorrow because Determination leads to Success!!!!!!!
