From a normal reasonably successful one....

I was meaning people like, Richard Branson, Philip Green, Bernie Ecclestone, Mike Ashley, Warren Buffett, Ken Morrison, Roman Abramovich, Rupert Murdoch, Sergey Brin etc.

Do they just have more drive, ambition, brains, guts, common sense or what??

Mike Ashley
was he ever a billionaire and is being successful in one deal really setting him apart from the rest?
Well at one time he was listed three years ago at 1.9b, but I understand he is down to a measly 800m these days......
