Howard Schultz: The Starbucks dream from the slums<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\"howard\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Perhaps few people know that the chairman and CEO of Starbucks, the world's largest coffee group, grew up in a poor family in a Brooklyn, New York, slum. His impoverished childhood did not weaken young Schultz's determination to rise. He always wanted to \u2018climb over the fence\u2019 and see the world beyond the poor neighborhood where he lived with his truck-driver father.<\/span><\/p>\n

As a student, Schultz excelled at sports and was admitted to Northern Michigan University on a football scholarship. After graduating in communications, Schultz worked for Xerox before establishing a small coffee shop called Starbucks. His passion for this beverage led him to leave Xerox and start his own company in 1987.<\/span><\/p>\n

Starting with 60 stores, Starbucks has now increased that number to 17,600 worldwide. Howard Schultz himself has a net worth of nearly USD 3 billion and consistently ranks among the world's most successful CEOs in terms of wealth growth.<\/span><\/p>\n

At the time, although only 13\u201314, Ingvar had already set clear business goals. At 17, he decided to establish IKEA with money saved from \u201csmall-time\u201d business ventures plus a reward from his father.<\/span><\/p>\n

Roman Abramovich lost his mother at just 18 months old, and his father also died in an accident at a construction site when he was only 4.

Abramovich started as a worker. From 1987 to 1989, Roman Abramovich was a mechanic at Mossepetsmontazh. He then organized the Yiut cooperative, specializing in plastic toys. In the early 1990s, now an entrepreneur, Roman Abramovich established a series of trading and oil-trading companies such as Mekong, Supertechnology Shishmaryev and Elita\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n

In 1995, he acquired oil giant Sibneft at a bargain price and continued taking over major companies, including steel group Evraz. Abramovich was also accused of bribery, money laundering, and involvement with the Russian mafia, but the matters were subsequently settled.

As he grew up, young Vecchio became a worker in a workshop making frames for car parts and eyeglasses. He had an accident there and lost a finger.<\/span><\/p>\n

At 23, he opened his own eyeglass frame shop, which later became Luxottica, the world\u2019s largest eyewear manufacturer, with famous brands such as Ray-Ban and Oakley and 6,000 retail stores such as Sunglass Hut and LensCrafters. His estimated fortune is now USD 11.5 billion.<\/span><\/p>\n

Born into a poor family, with a taxi-driver father and a mother who knitted at home, Sheldon Adelson struggled from childhood. At a little over 10, he had to support himself by selling newspapers. Residents of the poor Dorchester neighborhood in Boston still remember the quick-witted boy selling newspapers daily.<\/span><\/p>\n

Sheldon Adelson enrolled at City College but dropped out to earn a living, driven by his desire to make money. Besides spending a long time selling newspapers, he took all kinds of other jobs, from selling candy to handing out flyers\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n

Yet Sheldon Adelson was also highly alert to promising business opportunities. In the late 70s of the XX century, he recognized the coming boom in the personal computer industry. He decided to organize computer trade fairs, knowing many customers wanted to learn about and introduce computer products to the market.<\/span><\/p>\n

In 1979, he founded Comdex, a company specializing in computer trade shows. Beginning in 1984, he built The Sands hotel and casino complex. The hotel served not only computer-show visitors; Sheldon Adelson also aspired to enter the market for visitors to Las Vegas casinos. Today, Sheldon has become a global casino magnate with an enormous fortune and a casino network stretching from Las Vegas (United States) to Macau (China).<\/span><\/p>\n
