A Coutts Bank study revealed that 50% of People in the UK believe they will be a millionaire at one point in their life. However, only 425,000 people were millionaires (£1M or more net worth) in the UK at last count (about .7% or 1 per 145).

When you consider that an estimated, £2.6M is the actual net worth amount needed to live a "Millionaire Lifestyle" (5 Bed House, Overseas Holidays, Yacht, 2 Sports Cars, Personal Staff), there are some very strange perceptions out there.

One of the greatest entrepreneurs in history, Steve Jobs is one of only a handful of people to ever create more than one businesses worth over a billion dollars. After creating the first personal computers and building a billion dollar company while still in his 20's, Jobs was fired from Apple at age 30.

Steve Jobs went on to acquire Pixar from George Lucas which released Toy Story, a blockbuster success at the box office. After growing and  merging his second Billion Dollar Company, he became the single largest shareholder of Disney. He then returned to the stagnating Apple Corporation where the innovative iTunes and iPod combination resurrected the failing technology giant to make it one of the strongest brands on the planet.

This inspiring entrepreneur has transformed the way the world relates to computers, movies and music!

If Steve can build three billion dollar companies, surely you can do one! If you think you have a little bit of what it takes to be a great entrepreneur you must attend this event ... www.triumphantevents.co.uk/?unlock=87-zdg47bs9v87gtn9pkbmhtwsx

Judy Cramer created the stage show Mama Mia after meeting Bjorn Ulvaeus and Benny Andersson, of ABBA while she was working in production in the London Theatre scene. 

Originally pitching the idea as a movie screen play she had a breakthrough in 1995 when she realised that it would be better to create a stage show. 

By 1997 she had invested over £20,000, 2 years of her time and had sold her flat to finance the growing costs of her obsession. With virtually no encouragement from her friends she persisted on. 

Finally in late 1997 Judy successfully secured the rights to the ABBA songs, persuaded Polygram to finance half the £3M set up costs and advance her £300,000 to begin the show. 

With the support of Polygram, Bjorn and Benny she went on to get a Swedish Bank to finance the rest of the money she needed to open the show. 

In April 1999, four years after she was struck with the idea, Mama Mia opened to sell-out crowds and the show was an instant success. It has since grossed more than billion at the box office, opened in more than 170 cities all over the world, been seen by 30 million people.

Craymer's has a 50% share in her company "Littlestar", that has monthly turnover of £16M+. All the creative team involved in the show have become millionaires, and Craymer earns an estimated £4m a year from the show, amassing a personal fortune of tens of millions of pounds.

Not to rest on her laurels, Judy Craymer recently announced that her Stage Show will finally become the movie she originally envisaged over a decade ago. With Universal Pictures behind it, Colin Firth, Meryl Streep and Pierce Brosnan Staring in it and a M Budget it is sure to be the feel good "chick-flick" of the summer.

On this day in 1794, Eli Whitney was granted a patent for his machine "The Cotton Gin" that would�separate�cotton�fibbers�from cotton seeds (a job that was previously done by slaves).�
