He then became a trader in Paris' Stock Exchange and is now a Financial analyst for HSBC and travels around Europe all the time.
My mum got from Italy in the 60's too. But she learnt French at school yet she wasn't rich at all. She had some family over there so it was easier for her to make her way. She went to Nursery school and is now Nurse in charge in the Hospital she works in.
So yeah, my parents are my role models, not some crappy celebrities or someone I don't know.
