"What would you do with the money won from gambling? Buy delicious food? Get a new phone? Or maybe a new car? I believe everyone would freely arrange it, right? The person I want to introduce today used the money won from gambling to open his first shop, and later became a retail giant with a net worth of $4.3 billion and over 600 stores worldwide. Despite the impact of the pandemic, Donki's sales have not been affected at all. How did he achieve this?

The founder, Takao Yasuda, was born in 1949. Although he graduated from the Faculty of Law at the University of Tokyo, he was rebellious and often skipped classes to play mahjong. It was only after he lost his job that he managed to make a living using his mahjong skills. Four years later, in 1978, he used the money he had won to open a small grocery store called ""Don Quijote."" Of course, starting a business is never smooth sailing. He experienced being deceived and having no money to purchase inventory. Since he couldn't afford a warehouse, he stuffed all the goods into the small store, cramming the shelves so tightly that the entire store resembled a maze. Unexpectedly, this move attracted many people who entered like treasure hunters searching for great deals. It turned out that his unintentional action led to the emergence of the Don Quijote we know today."

In fact, people with a strong gambling instinct usually have a robust psychological resilience.

After achieving financial freedom, everyone has their own ideas. Making money is never the ultimate goal in life.
