Forbes magazine ranks billionaires on a variety of factors. One ranking is the self-made factor. From a scale of 1-10, it ranks how much a person pulled themselves up from their bootstraps and created wealth from scratch, versus inheriting a business. With 10 being the highest score, and a sign of true entrepreneurial grit, Ross Perot did just that. Starting at the age of 32 with $1,000 borrowed from his wife, he created a huge business empire that he later sold for billions—well before being best known as the first billionaire presidential candidate.
