The guy's first simulator was a homemade barbell. Studying sports literature, the young man trained at home. Over time, his hands and feet began to obey. He was very impressed by the medical commission when he independently came for an examination.

Today, Andrei Krylkov is a successful bodybuilder, although he still cannot do more delicate work, such as screwing nuts or repairing small items. But the guy does not lose hope.

And therefore, it is this incredible biography that often opens all the stories of successful people in Russia.

David Smith

Today, many people, especially the fair sex, dream of getting rid of the hated fat folds, but cannot find motivation for this. David Smith is a man who, without special methods, was able to lose as much as 186 kilograms.

The story of this guy begins with the fact that he could not move without assistance. His weight was 268 kilograms, and he decided it was time to change his life.

Surely you will ask how a young man of 26 years old brought himself to such a state. The fact is that the guy from childhood suffered from a tendency to be overweight. When his mother, to whom he was deeply attached, died, he tried to fight his despair with food. Less than a year later, the guy no longer knew how to get rid of the fat layer.

With the help of sports and proper nutrition, David got himself in shape, but he had to turn to professional surgeons because his skin was very sagging.

Now the young man, satisfied with his result, lives a full life and is not going to stop there.

She, like any old woman her age, lives in a small private house, which is lined with old-fashioned furniture inside. Ingeborga keeps photos of friends and relatives and leads a normal life. It would seem that there is nothing surprising in this phenomenon. But Ingeborga stands out because she is a successful German stock trader.

Once, when her husband died, the old woman realized that she simply had nothing to live on. The starting capital of the woman was the shares bought earlier by her husband. Not missing her chance, Ingeborga began to play on the stock exchange. In a short time, the woman was able to earn 500 thousand euros.

His music is filled with a special charm, so Mark already has thousands of fans around the world. The guy gives guitar lessons, enjoys life and is not going to stop there, improving his skills and continuing to work on himself.

Zhang Ying

History is bound to have its oddities. So, Zhang Yin, the owner of a small company that only a few people knew about, was able to make a fortune by studying US garbage dumps. Having bought most of them, she supplied waste paper to China, where the raw materials were recycled and arrived in America already in the form of packing boxes.

Zhang Yin is the first lady of China. Any incredible story of successful people begins with the fact that a person does not imagine that he is capable of achieving great results. But in Zhang Yin's case, things are much more serious. In China, a woman is assigned the role of a housewife and a secondary person. It is unthinkable that a woman, without education, start-up capital and family ties, takes leadership positions and becomes the country's first business woman.

This biography motivates and inspires a large number of people around the world.

But the guy proved to the whole world that nothing is impossible.

After graduating from school in an orphanage for the disabled, the guy learned to sew. In this area, he worked for seven years, setting aside small amounts of money. Later, he decided that repairing shoes was not an occupation for him, and opened six shoe outlets with deferred finances. But this was only Serikbol's first step as a businessman.

The guy located points throughout the city where you could buy soda, later he decided to open his own barbecue. Since he did not want to buy expensive meat from private entrepreneurs, he bought his own farm. So Serikbol first earned a million.
