I don't see this being a possiblity unless you start your own buisness right out of highschool and some big company bought you out. Please explain your success then
I've built up some equity over the years in highschool mostly consisting of financial investments. Then as time progressed, I found an interest in financial management which triggered me to get my licenses so I can get first-hand experience of everything. Now with my financial management experience, it allowed me to generate more income to pay for the things I want (e.g. car, home). When I say pay, it means I use strategies in order to pay things off over periods of time.. not a huge lump sum to pay it off (In my opinion, that is lost opportunity cost of your money). I also do financial management for families providing understanding and solutions using insurance and investment vehicles.. which results in more income.

For my schooling, luckily my parents were well-educated with money, they started a RESP plan early on. Now, I am enjoying the results of that. As well, the amount is large enough to cover all costs and quite a bit left over for future ventures.
