Everybody dreams of becoming rich someday and forgetting about the worries of tomorrow. Few people have found the recipe of success. Most of the people live under the impression that rich people have a very easy life and they always get what they want. It is true up to a certain point, in the sense that all these rich people were born poor and worked their way on the hierarchic social ladder to get where they are today. Rich people had a lot of ambition, talent and perseverance to have the immense financial success they benefit from today.

There are many example that illustrate this fact. Possibly the most famous cases of poor innovative people who ended being among the top rich people in the world are Bill Gates and Steve Jobs. Surely, you have heard of them. Gates is the inventor of the Windows operating system. Millions of people worldwide are using Windows everyday and it is all thanks to him. Bill Gates is an American business magnate, investor, philanthropist, author and former CEO of Microsoft. He is one of the best known rich people and entrepreneurs of the personal computer revolution. He came from a modest family and managed throughout his college years to come with a computer software that would change the world of computers.

Steve Jobs was also one of the rich people who influenced and brought something new to the world of technology. He was an American businessman and inventor widely recognized as the charismatic pioneer of the pc revolution alongside Bill Gates. Steve Jobs was co-founder, chairman and co-founder and chief executive officer of Apple Inc. He also came from a modest family and he managed to overcome his social position by a lot of hard work and determination. They are two of the most influential rich people on the technology market.

They are now considered extremely rich people and own fortunes that ordinary people can only dream about.
