Big money takes a lot of effort. 37-year-old Nick Mocuta is a multimillionaire who owns a huge fortune. He came to the United States from Romania with 500 dollars (about 36,000 rubles) in his pocket and spent several weeks sleeping on benches in the park. The man achieved success on his own and after a while bought houses for each member of his family. Find out how a former homeless man managed to become rich from our material.

Nick grew up in Romania and always dreamed of a successful career in the USA. When he turned 21, the guy went to Los Angeles with 500 dollars (about 36,000 rubles) in his pocket. He barely knew English, but that didn't stop him on his way to a better life.

The young Romanian did not have the opportunity to rent an apartment. He didn't know anyone in a foreign country. Nick had to sleep on benches in parks and eat cheap burgers. He still remembers how he paid $ 100 (about 7000 rubles) for a taxi: it was a real shock for him.

For several months, the guy managed to find small side jobs. So he managed to save up for the rent of a small apartment. Despite the slow progress, Nick's ambitions remained just as big. Thanks to perseverance and dedication, he managed to get a real estate broker license.

In 2013, a native of Romania started a business that changed his life forever. Nick started selling Chinese smartphones and cases for them on eBay. Six months later, he was earning up to $4,000 (about 285,000 rubles) a month. Seeing that online trading was going well, the guy quit his job as a broker and focused on his own business.

9 years have passed. Nick received American citizenship and opened several online stores. His fortune is now about $ 40 million (almost 3 billion rubles).

The former homeless man says that the secret of his success is that he was never afraid to lose and always stubbornly went to the goal. His tenacity can be envied.

Now Nick has a hundred apartments in the USA and Romania and four luxury cars. He bought houses for all members of his family, helps his native community. For a generous millionaire, there is nothing more pleasant than giving your loved ones financial independence so that they can spend more time with their family. Their happiness motivates Nick to continue developing his business.
