Here are my 5 Paradoxes of Israel
#1 More than 60% of selfmade billionaires in Israel have high school or less education
I cannot explain why.. I found the same in Hong Kong, most of the richest have very average to below average education
#2 50% of selfmade billionaires are immigrants.
Whereas 25% of Israeli population are immigrants
So, despite what the politicians say, immigrants twice as likely to succeed big than native born
#3 Israel surrounded by enemies
#4 Israel has limited natural resources
#5 There are 3 year compulsory military service in Israel
So, it must be extremely difficult to make a huge fortune in Israel
In spite of that, Israel has the second highest density of selfmade billionaires in the world
For every million population, there are more than 2 selfmade billionaires
Hong Kong has the highest proportion of selfmade billionaires, about 5 per million population
United States ranks third, with about 1.1 selfmade billionaire per million population

Hobby Lobby is a chain of arts and crafts with over 800 stores

David Green important because he founded his business on biblical principles and he has tremenedous success
