"Usman Khan – A Rickshaw Driver Who Started Earning Six Figures Income in a Year Over the Internet"
There is not much hope for people who drop out of college and have no financial stability, especially in Pakistan. Defying all odds, Usman Khan, former rickshaw driver, challenged and changed his destiny.
In 2016, the 33-year old went from being a rickshaw driver to earning six figures a month. How? It all started with an acquaintance of Usman named Omair, who worked in a software house.
Omair took Usman under his wing and started grooming him. After a failed attempt to launch a video portal named SabMaza, Usman laid foundation to a website called MobileRingtones, which gets 25,000 unique visits each day.
To sum it up, the lack of education does not define a person or his/her caliber, hence one should never lose hope.
Today, Usman has moved on to better and bigger projects. What struck me during my conversation with him was his desire to see his story be one among many rather than a one-off. While his extenuating circumstances meant that he just had to keep trying till he succeeded, he realizes not everyone has the same reservoirs of patience.
Honestly, I have a ton of ideas on how to generate income via the internet. If someone’s poor and uneducated, like I was, I want them to know that all is not lost.
