John Kay - Dreams come true.

Each of us in childhood dreamed of something great and bright, but unfortunately, not everyone manages to get closer to their cherished dream.

John Kay is one of those people who were able to fully realize themselves in life, despite the fact that he had to achieve everything himself and start building his life from the very bottom.

The future rich man and Prime Minister of New Zealand was born in 1961 into a family of immigrants who lived in a social housing block.

At an early age, John lost his father and his mother had to work two jobs to somehow make ends meet.

Thanks to his academic success, John Key managed not only to successfully graduate from school, but also to enter the university, from which he successfully graduated in 1981 with a Bachelor of Commerce degree.

He did not finish his studies there; he continued his studies at management courses at Harvard University.

Carier start.

The future trader's first job turned out to be unrelated to stock trading; he took a position as an analyst at McCulloch Menzies, and later as a project manager at a clothing manufacturing company.

It was only in 1985 that John Kay managed to get a position as a currency trader at Elders Merchant Finance; his dedicated work and success on the currency exchange were rewarded.

In 1988, John became the head of Bankers Trust, and subsequently his career developed with the same speed: in 1995 he became the Head of the Asian Forex Currency Exchange in Singapore, and from 1995 to 2001 - the head of the international forex exchange.

Even without making dizzying successes in trading, this man managed to reach the pinnacle of managing and organizing the trading process.

Climbing to the political Olympus.

In 2002, having decided that he had reached the top in this area of ​​activity, Kay went home and became a member of parliament in Helensville. And six years later he became the Prime Minister of New Zealand.

Thanks to his vast experience in financial management, John managed to introduce a number of measures in his position that helped New Zealand successfully cope with the 2008 crisis. This allowed him to once again win the hearts of voters and be re-elected for a second term.

Thus, a boy who grew up in a boarding school for the poor managed not only to earn several tens of millions of dollars, but also to occupy the highest position in his country.
