Here’s how a child from Greece became a billionaire

Here’s a short interview with self-made billionaire John Catsimatidis n how he made his fortune.

John Catsimatidis emigrated to the United States from Greece with his parents when he was 6 months old. By the time he was 24, he was a millionaire.

A billionaire today, he owns the more than 300 Red Apple Kwik Fill gas stations, United Refining Company, the Red Apple Group real estate and aviation company, and Gristedes Foods, the largest grocery chain in Manhattan. He also hosts a talk show that airs locally on AM 970.

I wrote about his growth strategy some time ago:
