I would wish to Highlight an additional information for you here. I'm sure it will definitely encourage you all.This year is also a record-breaking year for young billionaires, with Forbes listing 50 billionaires under the age of 40.Over half of them are self-starters, including Google co-founders Sergey Brin and Larry Page, and India's Sameer Gehlaut, who started an online brokerage Indiabulls. Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg, age 23, has been named the youngest billionaire in history.

  29. True richness doesn't count on how much money one possesses but it is on how one utilize its gift with genuine heart for others. Greediness would just bring you to your doom. Do not be overwhelmed with those material things that you have instead stay humble and kind hearted so that things will stay with just the way they have been given to you.

  38. Being richest is not a special achievement.Anybody can be the richest but its that everyone will have other priorities in life. Being rich is just like winning prize in sports or contributing to science and technology development or achieving in some arts or doing social service.
