What are some examples of people who never gave up in life? by @KhotteDePuttar
Answer by Deepak Mehta:
There is this guy who:
- failed primary school twice
- middle school thrice
- university entrance exams thrice
- was rejected at 30 job interviews
- including one for a gig at an KFC outlet where he was the only one of 24 people to be rejected
- applied 10 times to Harvard, none successfully
- tried to secure funding for his startup, unsuccessful again
What a failure, eh?
Nope.
The person being talked about above is Jack Ma, the founder and chairman of Alibaba (company) and one of the most talked about businessperson presently. Currently the firm is worth $200 bn and Jack Ma worth $22 bn, making him the richest Chinese person alive.
