Farrah Gray: Inspirational Story of a Millionaire at Age 14

4 August 2006

This story is inspirational in a couple of ways: a guy became a millionaire, at age 14, while living in the projects of Chicago. He’s an adult now, and still a successful businessman who has made even more money with his business ventures. ABC News did a profile of him here.

It sounds like he went around badgering people until they taught him what he needed to know to start up his own food business, among other things, and eventually ended up supplementing it as a motivational speaker. That’s the one power kids don’t realize they have: they’re cute enough that people will help them out with ideas like this where they wouldn’t even talk to an adult. It’s always good to hear about someone’s ambition and drive letting them live the American dream.
