How often does wall street create hundred millionaires or billionaires? Is starting a fund the only way to the real deal big leagues? What do you guys think it would take to be in the billion boys club by 35-40 on the street?

How many billionaires do you think asked people how to become a billionaire before they had a million?
Not a lot.
Considering there are a tiny number of billionaires in the world and most of them got their money from IPOing their own company I would still say that is the best way. However if you are talking about in finance yes starting your own fund is prob the best way of making huge bank.
Don't worry. The US government (not wall street) is going to create hundreds of millions of billionaires. We're all gonna be rich! (We just might also have to get into gardening to put a reasonably-priced dinner together).
The US government wont like to have the monopoly on trillion dollar businesses challenged.
I believe the only female billionaires in this country are from the Mars family. Find out if any of them grand dames are single and pursue the objective.
dude how bout Oprah? Heard she's single
Sara Blakely from Spanx is a billionaire I believe.
Yup. Pretty easy on the eyes, too.
@packmate
Sorry mate, she is partnered with someone (damn) & it's doubtful she's losing weight anytime soon.
I forgot about the Waltons (Wal-Mart), the vice chairman of Fidelity & the widow of Steve Jobs. In all, there are currently 7 female billionaires in the US, all over 40 years of age, and all inherited their wealth. Better to be lucky than good.
It takes more then a degree in accounting from the university of south florida...Why don't you stop fantasizing about some illusion of wall street billions and go hit the books.
It's definitely possible considering it has been done before, even though it's not very common. Just don't give up and keep working your ass off and hope for the best.
