Not as career success cuz i hate 9 - 5 but made it big in biz from being poor or middle class. I mean ppl who built a biz with nothing or low capital or huge risk.

Bonus points,

- the biz is legit not like kudu, shady import or anything like that

- still operates today

Curious about both well known and small scale local stories. Could be someone in your neighborhood, your uncle’s friend, whoever. Just want to hear the real ones not just bs like nepo babies like Otara.

Thanks in advance!

What’s something u buy in Sri Lanka where u feel the prices are like almost scams?

I’m just curious what makes everyone’s blood boil. Like products or services where you genuinely think “if someone did this for half the price they’d print money.”

Bonus points if you’ve actually tried making/sourcing it yourself and found out the real cost.
