4. Steve Jobs
With an estimated net worth of $7 billion before his death in 2011, it’s hard to imagine Steve Jobs was ever broke. He was however, homeless while studying at Stanford. Throughout his college days, he couldn’t afford his own dorm room so he slept on his friends’ floors.He also recycled Coke bottles for a 5 cent deposit to buy food. In his commencement speech at Stanford in 2005, he said “I would walk the 7 miles across town every Sunday night to get one good meal a week at the Hare Krishna temple.” Steve Jobs is now remembered as a pioneer in the technological world.
