Yes believe it or not all self-made millionaires have had to get their hands dirty at some point in their rags to riches story.

About This Quote

The saying “All self-made millionaires have had to get their hands dirty at some point in their rags to riches story” has been used continuously since the early 1900s. The original version of the saying was “Yes, all self-made millionaires have had to get their hands dirty at some point in their rags-to-riches story.” Many people believe that this is true because rags to riches stories are so common. However, it is important to understand the context of the saying. What this means is that self-made millionaires were not born with any money, so they had to work for everything they had. They got their hands dirty, so to speak, by working hard and following through on their dreams.
