When I think of overwhelming success, my mind goes immediately to an old man wearing an expensive suit. Not the case with Evan Spiegel.
Spiegel is not a household name… yet. Eventually, I imagine he will join the ranks with the likes of Mark Zuckerberg, Steve Jobs, and Bill Gates. Spiegel created Snapchat. And at the prime age of 23.
Worth an estimated $2.1 Billion, Evan Spiegel has ushered in the new age of digital connection. It is estimated that Snapchat users send over 400 Million snaps each day. If your jaw has not dropped yet, the company is worth over $16 Billion.
And this is not the end. Snapchat continues to update and improve their app, keeping relevant for the foreseeable future. Not everyone is slated to be the next Evan Spiegel, but his story is certainly inspirational and motivational when embarking on any venture.
I think you’re right! I didn’t recognize his name, but Snapchat continues to grow at a rapid pace and eventually everyone will know his name. Snapchat is so simple and easy to use, I think it will keep finding success for awhile.
