I can’t wrap my head around making 38 mil at the age of 20 years… wow. This kid really recognized a need and took advantage of the opportunity, carrying it out pretty flawlessly based off of the numbers.
I agree 38 million is mind boggling by any means, but by age 20 is crazy. Most 20 year olds are not making much more than minimum wage. This is truly one of the most impressive young entrepreneurs in the world.
