10个最伟大的白手起家的成功故事

A black boy growing up in Queens – one would not have pegged John as a potential entrepreneur who would go on to become the CEO of the hip-hop clothing brand FUBU. But that he did, with an entrepreneurial instinct that he honed from his school days. Selling popular wool hats at half their market price, he mortgaged their house for future business expansion. It paid off well – and he now is one of the most influential motivational speakers in America.
没有人会想到，这个在皇后区长大的黑人男孩后来会成为嘻哈服装品牌FUBU的CEO。但是凭借着在学校里打磨出来的商业嗅觉，他确实做到了。他以市场价一半的价格出售流行的羊毛帽子，而且把住房抵押出去用于接下来的商业扩张。约翰获得了丰厚的回报，他现在是美国最具影响力的励志演说家之一。
