At 12, future billionaire Michael Saylor saved up his first bit of pocket money and decided to make some cash with a classic business: he opened a comic book rental shop for local kids.
Business took off quickly, until competitors cut off his oxygen and drove his revenue down to zero. Instead of freaking out and shutting up shop, young Saylor reworked his strategy: he built a foundation, reallocated resources, and found a new way to monetize his audience.
Years later, that knack for surviving fierce competition and building a monopoly helped him turn the crypto market upside down and transform MicroStrategy’s balance sheet into the planet’s biggest vault for $BTC .
A firm grip and the ability to take a punch are forged in childhood.
Would you have fought competitors for your business, or shut up shop right away? 👇
