Mark Zuckerberg and Steve jobs (late). Didn't come from a wealthy home, they struggled so hard for success

Zuckerberg had access to Saverin's father's money and connection in the beginning and was also a competent PHP programmer at the time. Was part of prestigious school, which provided his initial users and aided the spread of facebook.

Steve Jobs adopted father was a used car salesman (very good at selling shit). Jobs learnt alot about selling stuff and putting things together to make them valuable from this guy.

Forgotten the book but, most people never made it on hard work alone; they had an edge. insight to knew tech or access to information you don't have.

You don't work harder than construction workers or infantry soldiers - always remember this.

Someone sponsored the failures

Not always the case and those failures were paid for dearly. These Billionaires take a lot of risks. I watch the stories of how these wealthy men started.

Trust me you must take financial risks to become a millionaire/billionaire (dollars). Have it at the back of your mind that you wouldn't hit right the first time.

How these great entrepreneurs became wealthy. Not even referring to these new generation billionaires, I'm talking about those in the time past.

peeps4u:
It is quite easy to try again after failures when there are resources at disposal.

For some, it takes them ages to get the resources, when they fail, they may not get to try again, some have resources to try again almost immediately. It is not that the later are more deducated to success than the former.
