The Story :

"Farrah Gray" was in a very bad condition, he is still 6 years old. Black child, living in a very poor neighborhood, his mother was sick, and the head of a 3 brothers family is fourth, .. almost no outlet for a normal life under these circumstances, had no choice but to do the work modest in this young age, he began selling creams for the skin trade For a dollar and a half, and distributed it to the neighbors and residents of the region; where he was buying them wholesale, and sold by piece.

The thing that caught attention to hem that he was too close, and he could convince customers to buy quickly, and also get their approval from his way of communicating. At the age of nine, as he moved with his family to another city (Las Vegas), the opportunity came to Farrah Gray; by speaking on a radio program in a way that attracted everyone's attention, he received an offer to serve as an assistant broadcaster in a program followed by 12 million listeners.

He began to raise money; he invested in a nascent food-processing project in New York, bringing the "first million" at the age of 14. The following year, he founded a company selling phone cards, ran a teen radio program, invested in a magazine, founded a charity on his behalf, and produced a comic program!

When he was 15 years old, he received a scholarship (as compensation for the years he missed out of education) and was received by the US president himself with a congressional delegation and received honorary membership in many US trade councils. The bad conditions made him start early (too early if you want precision), and he achieved all his accomplishments as a 15-year-old.

The Lesson:

Don't give up you will have a chance to succeed and you should catch it.
Don't give up and live the life that you love.
Be yourself, be smart.
