I'm doing a bit of research on success stories of people. Like how someone got from their inspiration to their fullest success. For example Disney, he started out as a political cartoonist looking for a newspaper job and now his company is probably the most successful in the world.

Mel Brooks took a pay cut just to direct his own first movie "The Producers" without Director experience, now he's one of the top greatest comedy directors of all time. Same with David Zucker, his brother Jerry and Jim Abrhams. They were doing an Independence theater show with short film screenings then later became the masters of Airplane and The Naked Gun.

And Bill Gates went from a College drop out (from what I heard) to one of the leaders of computers today.

I was just curious if anyone knew of any success stories or details, etc. It's very interesting. :smile:
