We should never look down at anyone and this Malaysian rubbish collector turned millionaire proves just that!
32-year-old Malaysian Mohamad Azlan Al Amin is now a millionaire, but his story started in 2005 when he worked as a rubbish collector for a cleaning contractor at the Royal Malaysian Air Force base in Gong Kedak.
He said that he was so poor that him and his family survived by eating food like chicken and fish that the canteen operator threw away.
“That was how difficult life was. We were poor, and in a survey that was carried out, my family was found to be the poorest in Kampung Tok Raja, Besut," he said.
His small business failed in 2010 and he ended up with RM1.30 in his pockets, but he was determined to make a change for him and his family. And that was when he met a man that offered him a job as a property agent.
After days and hours of hard work and determination, he’s now the proprietor of Azlan A-Amin Properties Sdn Bhd!
“Make poverty as motivation and wealth as an inspiration. When we have acquired wealth, be generous and help others.”
He recently also released a book titled “Rahsia Pengutip Sampah Jadi Jutawan” (Secrets Of A Rubbish Collector Who Becomes A Millionaire) at the National Library!
“In times of hardship, never forget Allah and give alms, and always be grateful and appreciate the sacrifices of our parents.”
Definitely words to remember by and inspires us to work harder to achieve success in life no matter how hard life is!
