He worked for years in backbreaking minimum wage jobs and then became a potato farmer, saving up until he had the chance to open a small shoe store. When he was only 11-years-old, he was forced to drop out of school. Then, when he turned 16, he packed his bags and left his home and family to move to America — arriving with only $5 in his pocket.
