  • Henry Ford made Ford cars and his highest education was graduating 8th grade.

    1. He ran a sawmill to support his wife before he started Ford

    2. One of his biggest obstacles was political leaders stereotyping his brand.

    3. I learned that if you put your mind to something you can do it because even though Ford barely had an education, he became one of the biggest car brands.

  • It is okay to do something that nobody else has done before

He has an education at Harvard University in computer science(1980–1983) and Davis Senior High School.


    Valve was his first OWN business, he had a little bit of business experience


    The biggest obstacle to Valve is "Steam" the biggest game platform in the world


    I learned from him a couple of examples of how to do and what to do, to gain ideas.

    2.In high school he helped form a group of programmers who computerized their school's payroll system and founded Traf-O-Data, a company that sold traffic-counting systems to local governments.


    3.Bill Gates struggled with self-confidence and actually feared that his business would be a bust. He was a very anxious and stressed person at the time, and was very scared to start Microsoft because he didn't want to be embarrassed if it failed.

    4. I learned not to let fear of rejection. or being scared something MAY not work, wont get you anywhere, but risks will.

Josh Luber started Stock X in 2015. It started off well as it was the first resale sneaker website to reach a billion-dollar valuation.


    Josh's biggest obstacle was when he was sued by Nike for selling fake shoes to customers but they quickly fixed that and is still one of the biggest resale sneaker comanys to this day.


    I learned that you should always follow your passion as Josh's passion was sneakers and he became a successful entrepreneur by making a business based on his passion

Truett Cathy is the founder of Chick-fil-A and he attended Boys High School (renamed Henry W. Grady High School in 1947 and Midtown High School in 2020) located in Atlanta.


    He and his brother, Ben, opened an Atlanta diner known as The Dwarf Grill.


    One big obstacle for S. Truett Cathy was finding the resources and supplies he needed to run his business (Chick-fil-A) during WW2.


    I have learned that even during hard times, you can still make your business work, and run the way you wish.

  • Their business is Ben and Jerry's, an ice cream brand.

  • Ben dropped out of school and Jerry went to Oberlin college

  • Neither of them had any business experience

  • One of their biggest obstacles was not having money to start a business but they were able to figure it out using their savings.

  • A life lesson I learned from researching Ben and Jerry is that anyone can become successful no matter how much money you have or how much of an education you have.
