I think I want to follow his example - Mark Cuban: How I Became a Billionaire

There is something very inspiring in his character. He got hit by lot of bad things but he actually continued to fight. And he looks more like a game player rather than a billionaire. This is really cool. BBC - Billionaire Boys Club - sounds fun. Someone has to be the luckiest guy on the world.
To be the first in a niche is something amazing.
But as I watch this video something is bugging me. He actually is born entrepreneur and he made money even as a kid. I am not sure if all people can do this. As a kid I made money from breeding and selling aquarium fishes. Does that count?

Only Morons Start a Business on a Loan - Mark Cuban

Small business don't fail from lack of money, they fail from lack of effort. I like this guy and I totally agree on his opinion on loans. Starting business has many uncertainties and if you choose your only certain thing is your loan - bad for you. But I'm still not a billionaire so what I say doesn't matter.
If you start a business its necessary for you to know your industry and your company better than anyone else.
And another one - everyone out there is working 24 hours a day to kick your a***.  Cool, do I need to work 24 hours a day to even start? Or need an idea and how to get idea for becoming a rich person.
