Truth Jones became a self-made millionaire at the young age of 11 and now at 14 he is earning a staggering $100k a month.
Although he is only 14 years old, Christon 'The Truth' Jones has amassed a large fortune as an author, investor, motivational speaker and businessman.
Jones began his journey as an ordinary school boy to a self-made millionaire at the age of eight when he penned his first book The Win Within. Inspired by his experience of bullying, he hoped his book would help other children stuck in a similar situation.
With the help of his mother Janel, he had his book published and within 90 days he made an impressive $5k in book sales and by the age of 10 became a best-selling author.
Determined to build his income, Jones became interested in the stock market after learning about a 14-year-old investor who made $50k, and although his mum was worried he was too young to understand how to invest money, she supported her son with his decision.
His mum explained: “I thought he was a little too young to get the concepts. However, he came back to me and started speaking the terminology and the jargon that they speak in the stock market. He asked me if he could open his broker account and from that moment, I knew he was serious.”
Jones claims to have invested $3,000 which he turned into $1m in just three years.
Although he had reached millionaire status, the teenager remained dedicated to building his wealth by venturing into the world of business.
Now, the teen claims to earn a staggering $100k a month and it is no surprise he lives a more lavish lifestyle than most teenagers.
As a result, the 14-year-old is now the CEO of his business The Truth Speaks and founder of theTruth Success Series, where the teen hosts online masterclasses to share his knowledge on investing, which is good news for anyone wanting to follow in his footsteps.
So far, Jones has bought a house which is kitted out with a cinema and gym and has splashed out on two luxury watches including a $12k Rolex and an $18k diamond-encrusted Cartier time piece.
The businessman is now seeking an apartment which he hopes to rent out on Airbnb as a form of 'passive income.'
Speaking on his spending habits, he said: "It’s much more fun to buy stuff when you know you own part of the company so I like to splurge on X-Box games and of course Amazon is my first choice when my mom has to order stuff.”
Jones has garnered a lot of attention internationally, has spoken to audiences across three different continents and was even nominated as a Black Enterprise Teenpreneur of the Year in 2018.
