Andrey Ternovsky, born in 1995

As a 17-year-old schoolboy, Andrei wrote a small program that subsequently blew up Runet. This is Chatroulette (chat roulette) where you can chat with a random user using text, voice and video.

The guy admits that he was inspired by conversations with friends through group calls on Skype. Enthusiastically getting down to business, he wrote his program in a couple of days. At the beginning of November 2009, the resource was launched and very soon collected 500 users per day.

Just a month - and this number has increased 100 times. Almost all authoritative Russian and foreign publications wrote about Chatroulette, such as New York times. At the beginning of March next year, Andrei said that the total number of users had exceeded one and a half million.

At first, in order to develop the project, Andrey took money from his parents, but very soon he returned it with a vengeance. Moreover, he himself did little work on the site, four freelance programmers did it for him. Today the site is still popular, but the audience is strictly over 18 years old.

Oleg Gerasimov and Arkady Khokhlov, born in 1990 and 1993 respectively

Once Oleg saw a waterless car wash in New York, and he really liked this idea. Returning to Russia, he was eager to apply such a method in our Moscow traffic jams. The main problem was the extremely high price. detergents such a plan.

Here, chemist friends came to the aid of the guys, who developed a composition with identical properties, but much cheaper and frost-resistant. A patent has been registered and a license has been obtained.

Today, Fast and Shine is a partner in many racing competitions. It is developing very dynamically and brings in more than 50 million rubles a year.

Vsevolod Fear, born in 1988

At the age of 17, the guy created an online store called Sotmarket, which made him a billionaire a few years later. Until now, the project is growing so fast that it has every chance to catch up and overtake Ozon.

It all started in the 2000s, when pictures and music on phones were wildly popular. But it was possible to upload them there using a cable. Having found a person who regularly travels to China, Vsevolod began to buy wires from him, and sell them on a page on the Internet, which became the ancestor of Sotmarket.

The peculiarity of Vsevolod's character is that he passionately wants to develop the business, so he invests almost all the profit back into the project, leaving almost nothing for himself. According to him, he often takes things on credit.

Some believe that at such a rapid pace, Sotmarket will not last long and that the project looks like a teenage hobby. Time will show.

Fedor Tikhomirov and Alexander Koksharov, born in 1988 and 1989 respectively

In 2002, at their own expense, the guys built the only site at that time in St. Petersburg where they could ride skateboards and roller skates. First of all, they thought about themselves and their friends, then no one thought that it would develop into a business and even help them become one of the youngest millionaires in Russia.

The first site lasted about a year, and then the guys founded a full-fledged skate park on Valor Street in St. Petersburg. Then they heard rumors that the city government was also going to build a skate park. Fedor and Alexander showed them a project made on a computer, the officials liked it.

Having received the first order, the guys immediately registered the company. It cannot be said that the path of business development was completely smooth, but the difficulties only tempered them. Since then, 5 years have passed, and the company has more than 40 sports facilities, that is, half of all available in St. Petersburg.

Semyon Kibalo, born in 1988

As a university student, Semyon often watched American comedies, and there he liked the hoodies of characters with their logos. educational institutions. It was decided to do similar things for myself and fellow students.

The guy didn't even need start-up capital Enough prepayment from friends. He designed the logo himself. And then the principle of word of mouth worked. All the other students wanted the same sweatshirts.

Amazingly, in a month the profit from sweatshirts has already reached 100 thousand rubles. I had to open an office and hire employees, the scale has grown so much. Having accumulated 500 thousand, Semyon opened a company called Unifashion and purchased printing equipment.

Then the guy established cooperation with one of the garment factories, where his branded sweatshirts are now produced. This led to higher prices, but also to a significant increase in product quality.

Nikolay Saganenko, born in 1988

Nikolai organized his first business at just 16 years old. True, he did not have much success. The boy called people who placed an advertisement in the newspaper for the sale of a car and offered to put an advertisement on the Internet with a photograph for 800 rubles.

But then a much more serious and profitable opportunity turned up. A friend who studied at an architectural institute said that teachers often need models of various buildings.

Nikolai got down to business, called several potential clients And four days later I received the first order. Soon the company "Layout-Master" was founded, a room was rented and several employees were hired.

Today, "Layout-Master" even takes on such complex projects as the layout of an entire district of the city, which other layout designers refuse. Other achievements - a wooden model of an automatic loader for AvtoVAZ.

Andrey Pryakhin, born in 1985

Andrey is the founder of the Kefir game design studio, which has had a hand in creating a huge number of flash games, in particular, applications for social networks. Moreover, the guy was fond of computer games all his adult life.

His very first toy was called "Mission of Saakashvili" and was full of black political humor. We can say that Andrei played with fire, but nevertheless, he even managed to earn extra money on the application. At this stage, he was programming with a friend.

At one point, the developer took a chance and introduced VKontakte monetization for the game. He was surprised that people readily began to pay. These incomes allowed him to create his own studio "Kefir".

Several more or less popular applications were created, but “Tyuryaga” deserves special attention - a project that is in the top in terms of popularity on VKontakte. The first million users installed it within 2 weeks after launch.

We conclude that to become a millionaire, you need determination, quick wits and a bit of luck. And age is not a hindrance here.

Anyone can become rich and successful. The main thing is to find the thing that will be to your liking. If work brings satisfaction, then there will be strength to bring your ideas to life, and work will only be a joy. And how nice that your dreams can now bring money. You just get bonuses every day.

Vsevolod Fear

Age 24 years. His company is called Sotomarket. The guy started his business with the importation of products (USB cable) made in China. Moreover, he ordered the initial batch with his pocket money, which he had been saving for a long time. Familiar goods began to snap up. And since he was able to capture the essence of the sale: that such a product was required at that particular time, his business immediately went uphill. And since smartphones have just begun to appear, the cable just went off with a bang.

Gradually, his Sotomarket store expanded the list of goods and now it is a huge online store that sells computers and their components along with accessories. The store has about 700 employees.

And the annual turnover amounted to about four billion US dollars. This is how Fear B started and continues his business. He uses the rule successful sale. He has a stable balance between supply and demand, the goods are not stale.

Then he was still a student, but he realized that this could become the work of his whole life. And what surprised the young man in New York?

He noticed that while the cars are at the traffic lights, young people have time to wipe the windows, and they do it quickly and gracefully only with the help of a cleaning agent and a microfiber cloth, without using a drop of water.

Upon returning to his homeland, the guy quickly brought his friend up to date, and they jointly purchased a certain amount of cleaning agent and necessary rags. But the guys were upset that the harsh winters in Russia did not allow the idea to be 100 percent realized. This gave impetus to the creation of such cleaning products that would not be afraid of the harsh Russian winters. And young people successfully coped with this task.

As a result, the rating for the new tool not only rose, but literally a year later the company brought the directors a whole million dollars. An organization called "Fast & Shine" has not lost its rating even after a few years. And even a franchise is issued for a new brand in literally 100 settlements CIS.

He heard the idea that there was an urgent need for companies based on the creation of real estate models. It turned out that the number of performers in this area is negligible. And then it just dawned on the guy.

He began to quickly translate ideas into reality and turned out to be absolutely right. Even without a special education, the skilled craftsman was able to quickly implement all his ideas, and this laid the foundation for his business.

Starting with a small office, the young man did not have time to take orders in the first weeks of work, they simply rained down on him. A little time has passed, and he already has a high and stable rating. He is popular and in demand as a professional.

Semyon Kibalo

The guy started by making a model of a sweatshirt with the symbols of his alma mater and immediately received an advance payment. And, of course, a job order.

That's how it all started. Small orders gradually developed into production. And the young man began to conclude contracts with the country's leading universities. His company is UniFashion. A very sweet and uncomplicated story bore fruit almost immediately.

Fedor Tikhomirov and Alexander Koksharov

For the same fans of extreme driving, so that they can not only enjoy the feeling of speed, but also hone their skills.

Now the partners have a small company called FK-Ramps and are happy to make such platforms for the whole of Russia. This story directly confirms that your favorite business brings not only good emotions and positive mood, but also profit. And craftsmen get a good income.
