Do You Fit the Profile of a Billionaire?

For the past few weeks, we were discussing whether systems muddle our view of life in Love vs. Life and Simple Life? postings. Before we conclude this interesting discussing, why don’t you let me give you a quiz?

Which of these profiles do you think predict the life of a future billionaire?

  1. Breaking away from a successful family tradition
  2. An adopted child, a college dropout
  3. A poor immigrant, a high school dropout
  4. A bitter childhood
  5. Born with a bad gene
  6. Single parent living off welfare
  7. Taking an unpopular vocation
  8. Son of an orthodontist and a money-manager
  9. Son of a local stock broker
  10. Member of the royal family

Check out my next posting for the answer! In the meantime, please give your guess at the comments.

    all the 10 profiles. I guessed that all 10 profiles will fit in cuz regardless of the person’s background, as long as he or she has that immense passion (and i mean immense!) and a lifetime committment in his or her vocation, then he or she will succeed as long as there’s belief in himself/herself regardless of what people may say.
