'I slept in a stairwell and begged for money as a teen but now I’m a millionaire – my masterplan will help you get rich too'
He said: “It was a traumatic time and I left with nothing — not even a bag. I had no money, no possessions. I begged for food and money. I slept rough in a park, then a stairwell like this. And later a squat.”Simon said: “I almost look at it as a positive time. I had a chance to discover myself.
“I realised I didn't need possessions. I went into survival mode and an entrepreneurial muscle awoke in my brain — all the important stuff that school doesn't teach you — how to manage money, how to start a business, how to survive.”He started seeing posh houses with messy gardens and began knocking on doors and soon enough he started his first business Simon Squibb Gardening.
Since then he has launched 18 other business and invested in 76 more, and not all have been successful. He lost a lot of money trying to start a comic business but also learned important lessons the hard way.– a free online community where up-and-coming enterprises give each other a helping hand.He’s even started filming himself stopping people in the street and asking them what their dream business would be and, right there will transfer them the money, which can range from just a few hundred to a few thousand pounds, to get them started.
