When it comes to successful investors, Kevin O’Leary is a name that stands out. With a net worth of over $400 million, he is known as one of the “sharks” on the popular television show, Shark Tank. But his journey to the top was not without its challenges.
O’Leary’s interest in investing began at a young age, with his parents who were both entrepreneurs. He started his first business, a printing company, in college and eventually sold it for a profit. He then went on to co-found and sell The Learning Company, which made him a millionaire at the age of 34. However, his biggest success came with the creation of O’Leary Funds, one of the largest mutual fund companies in Canada. With a strong emphasis on value investing and diversification, the company has consistently delivered returns above industry standards.
Aside from his business ventures, O’Leary is also a best-selling author, a successful speaker, and a philanthropist. He is a firm believer in giving back and has donated millions to various causes, including education and supporting small businesses. In fact, on his show, Shark Tank, he often advises entrepreneurs to put a portion of their profits towards charitable causes.
