4. Super-successful David Jones has done it
all and he’s still only 18. He made his
own computer company two years ago,
and has already become a millionaire.
He not only has a talent for making money,
but has succeeded in everything else he
has tried. “ I’ve done everything, I’ve
been everywhere, I’ve lived life to the
full,” he says.
His list of achievements is truly amazing. In
his short life he has already:
• joined the list of The 200 Richest People
in Britain, with £ 2.7 million in the bank.
• travelled to almost every country in the
world. “ America is my favourite,” he
says. “I haven’t been to Australia yet, but
I plan to go there next month.”
• learned five languages. “Japanese is an
interesting language, but I like
Norwegian best,” he says.
