One such story is that of Chris Gardner. Chris grew up in a poor household and struggled to make ends meet as a single father. He worked as a medical equipment salesman, but was consistently passed over for promotions and struggled to make a living wage.

Determined to improve his situation, Chris took a job as an unpaid intern at a stock brokerage firm. Despite not getting paid, he worked hard and was eventually offered a paid position. He continued to work hard and learn as much as he could about the industry, and eventually became a successful stockbroker. He went on to start his own brokerage firm and became a millionaire.

Chris's story is an inspiration to many, showing that with hard work, determination, and a willingness to take risks, anyone can overcome poverty and achieve success.
