Andrew Yang, former presidential candidate and entrepreneur, shared his inspiring journey to multimillionaire status by age 34 in a Vlad TV interview. Born to immigrant parents from Taiwan, Yang excelled academically early on, scoring a 1200 SAT at age 12 and a 1500 by 15, which helped him gain admission to top universities like Brown and Columbia Law School.
After a brief and unsatisfying stint at a law firm, Yang pursued entrepreneurship, initially starting a philanthropic dot-com during the bursting tech bubble, which failed. He then worked multiple jobs, including nightclub promotion and test prep tutoring, before becoming CEO of a test preparation company around age 31. Under his leadership, the company expanded to 69 locations, generating $17-18 million in annual revenue. At 34, he sold the business to Kaplan for a low eight-figure sum, marking a significant financial milestone that laid the foundation for his later successes.
