What Do I Know About Chris Gardner?

After viewing "The Pursuit of Happyness" in theatres, I was engrossed and inspired by the life story of Chris Gardner, who through hard work, perseverance, and patience, overcame his lofty barriers and silenced his non-believers. Through him, I truly understood the meaning of “Impossible is Nothing”.

-he was abandoned by this father at a very young age
-his wife left him which forced him to raise their son alone
-worked to become a stock broker
-did not attend college or any other type of post-secondary institution
-is the epitome of "rags-to-riches"
