Everyone talks about the same billionaires everyday: Musk. Zuck. Bezos. But there's one man who became a billionaire at just 25 — and by 2030, the entire world will use his product. Here's his story (and what you can learn from him): Austin is a genius: Austin got a $100K fellowship from Peter Thiel to drop out of university. He figured that if he could fix the LiDAR system that cars used, he could make self-driving cars a reality. He found that Existing LiDAR systems were bulky, expensive, unreliable, and made from spare parts. Austin made his from scratch, 50x more powerful and 10x cheaper. By 20, his invention raised $36 million from investors. By 23, car giants like Volvo and Toyota wanted his tech. Once Luminar went public, Austin became the world's youngest self-made billionaire at age 25. Austin wants Luminar tech in all cars by 2030. He wants everyday vehicles to have the same self-driving power.
