The reason there aren't too many billionnaires is that people who have broken into that level of earning have a completely different mindset.

Nobody will make that sort of money copying others or doing the same things others are doing. That kind of money is made by networking (not just networking to beg, but networking to be of value to billionaires).

I absolutely agree, networking is great, but do you think billionaires would want to network with a poor youth?

phr33man:
I strongly believe one can become whatever he wants to become irrespective of the odds around.

If people are still becoming millionaire from zero with these odds, nothing stops them to become billionaires than themselves. Though, it's not that easy. You just to repeat what you did from zero to millionaire but harder with God's favour, you are there. It's easier for youths who are into entertainment,sports , IT(you just need that unique idea to break even). Other businesses may strive to get to this point these days sha. But with the right innovative continuously growing idea(from God) and good strategy of execution, you are there.

Sport, IT, Entertainment, I agree. Are you in any of this field? How are you planning to become a billionaire?

Goddys:
The fact is that it is extremely hard. You need to have a unique business idea that can solve problem of humanity like discovering of coronavirus vaccine and selling it to top pharmaceutical company or a robot that can give one the type of hairstyle one desires. Even billionaires have a haircut and if there's such, it can sell

If you have a huge inheritance, it is also possible through hedge fund and buying of certain stock by predicting their volatility if you have an insider information before you invest in a stock but it is a crime.

You need a special grace from God too.

Only millionaire pharmaceutical companies would be able to discover coronavirus vaccine

phazotron:
So u don't know what it takes to list a company on the stock exchange?

EzzyCarter:

At what age

phazotron:
If you have bright ideas that are scalable and can be implemented in a grand scale yes it is possible to be a billionaire although u go still need funding and some connections Herr and there

Another thing is to be able to continually invest and increase amount of assets u have

But the surest way is to list your organization on the stock exchange (which stems from implementing number 1) and own majority shares

Can you please expantiate o. Listing organization on stock exchange

Borrow us your intelligence in this thread please

dermmy:
But the cars I'm seeing in that picture you uploaded are cool cars though not all. You don't expect everyone in Iran to be rich, modern societies are class societies stratified along classes. Rich and poor, the haves and have nots. So you don't expect every car in every country to be of luxury.

Help us with your intelligence in my thread abeg

God bless you brother

You become a millionaire by inheritance or by your actions ( ).
0-Wishing/Praying for something is one thing.
1-Desiring something is another.
2-Positioning your self with an adequate knowledge and plan (specialized skill or specialized persons with adequate skills) in ensuring that thing is achieved is another thing.
3-Then executing the plan is another thing entirely. Taking action. Just doing it.
4-Now should this plan fail, trying again with some modification of the plan and not giving is as a matter of fact, another thing entirely.

Many Nigerians you see are at level 0. They have not gone beyond this level. Some have gone to level 4 and quit. Becoming a billionaire is not by luck. Unless your parents bequeath wealth to you it has to come by your own action. You have to work for it or steal for it or kill for it. Whatever it is you have to take some form of action.

Please look at the worlds Billionaires. All of them. It was by their actions. Granted some had opportunities provided for them by their parents in form of a head start. However, they had something to offer and took action. They failed multiple times and tried again to achieve their aim. It is real work to rise beyond your background and your economic situation. But it is possible. Now I shall provide you an example. Real life example.

Woman A, comes from a humble background. Poor family. Nothing much to her name. Just a little educated. She was married off to a man who beat the shit out of her daily. He would leave her without any money for feeding and stuff. Eventually, he moved out of the house. Stopped caring for the kids and the woman. He told her she was bad luck and he is not interested in her anymore. Daily she would come to ask for assistance to feed herself and her kids. I knew offering her money was not the best idea. It will only solve her problem temporarily. I asked her to go into business. She complained of capital. I told her I was not going to give her capital for the business. She was distraught because I have always helped. I told her to learn a skill. A vocation. That way she can earn her own money by offering a service. And this knowledge will be with her anywhere she goes.

She decided that she would learn Tailoring and Hair Dressing. I told her to choose one and she did. She chose tailoring. Paying for the training for her was not difficult. It cost me nothing. Unknown to me, she had seen the light and learnt hair dressing on her own. While she was learning how to make clothes she caught on the hair dressing bit because she already made hair for her kids. She completed the hair dressing in no time. She eventually completed the tailoring as well. From the hair dressing, she sat in front of her house every evening and made hair for kids within the area. Especially on Saturdays and Sundays. She latter decided to rent a shop. She had some money and I gave her a loan to complete the rent. I had to lie to her that the money is a loan she must repay back. In the shop she set up a small corner with a sewing machine and had a girl help her out with the hair dressing/making section. In no time she split both businesses. Tailoring business in one shop. Hair dressing salon in another. Eventually she decided she was going to learn better designs. She wanted to learn with a good designer who designs for high class Lagos (Eko) Women. Told her to take the chance.

Long story short this same woman is supplying ' Afrofusion' clothing to the UK today. She sells those African Tops and Skirts that Oyibos now mix with their own clothing. She makes the handbags too. As per her hair dressing business, she progressed this into make up and beauty accessories. I encouraged her to brand it with a proper brand name. A fellow here on nairaland even made her logo for her for less than 10k. Today this woman is planning on travelling to Vietnam, China and/or Dubai to brand her own wigs, make up kits (mascara, eye pencils), artificial nails, etc. etc. I MEAN WITH HER OWN BRAND NAME AND LOGO ON IT. Picture Vlisco, Nobel, Tara, etc.

IS SHE A BILLIONAIRE YET? The answer is no. Is she getting there? The answer is a resounding yes. Who knows how much she can scale her business to? Who knows where else she can divest to and hit is bigger than she already has?

Long story short, background and baseline economic situation can be a challenge, but it does not mean it cannot be surmounted. Wisdom and Knowledge properly applied to achieve a goal, through consistent action can overcome any challenge(s).

Hey Nairalanders, kindly share your thoughts

Is it possible for someone to become a billionaire, someone from no where, not from a rich family, with no one to help?

Some people would say, why aiming to be a billionaire? There's this math, I used while in school, if you aim for an A, you will either end in an A or a B. You might be our next billionaire, aim HIGH

Can an individual later on in his/her life achieve this status through consistent hardworking/smart working?
Or is it only through LUCK that the individual can become one, all these Nigerian billionaires didn't start from a rich family.

Please, don't compare with white people because I know they already have an enabling environment once they are diligent, focused and smart working.
I'm talking about a typical Nigerian youth, from a poor/average home.
I know some billionaires from wretched homes that became one, but he was oppurtuned to get a job with NNPC or oil company, and from there he started having his oil mining whatever.

In this 21st century, can a youth realize that dream legally?

I'm a motivator, and sometimes I feel I could tell myself & some people that, we should forget becoming a billionaire, or when I see people Praying to become a billionaire. Sometimes, teenagers that I guide will jokingly call themselves ''billionaire squad'', and tell me, AUNTY, my money will shock you. I do observe little children when they are playing, they are often saying, when I become a billionaire

My fellow Nairalanders, do these people have hope? Is it only through luck? Are they limited to becoming millionaires or thousandnair, hundrednaire alone? Please share your thought and give examples, if you are also a billionaire/millionaire, share with us what you think of yourself before becoming one, were you always with the thought that, surely, I would be a millionaire, or you never thought of becoming one and it just happened.
If you are a NOTHING now, do you think you have the chance of becoming a billionaire? What are the steps you are taking towards this

aeion:
I've been natural for 10+ years and can say that good hair care practices and proper nutrition are what grows hair. Heck, leaving hair alone (like not suffocating it with unnecessary products) to breathe will grow hair. There's one particular thing I do, though, but I'm not saying what it is

Are you waist length?
