Millionare barber: Ramesh Babu at TEDxChristUniversity

- Ramesh Babu is a Bangalore-based barber who gives customers a haircut for a modest ₹100 but owns a Rolls Royce Ghost worth ₹ 3 crore, and 67 other cars. When his father died in 1979, Ramesh, a nine year-old boy, was literally on the streets. The barber shop his father ran on Brigade Road's St Patrick's Complex was rented out for ₹ 5 per day. Ramesh's family survived on that money. Babu was nine when his father died in 1979, leaving the family with nothing. To make ends meet, they rented out his father's saloon on Brigade Road for a mere ₹5 per day. Forced to get a fulltime job, Babu dropped out of school after Class 10 and started working as a barber. The career choice paid off better than he could have imagined. In 1991, he started his own salon, Inner Space, which gained popularity among the city's trendy bunch. But the turnaround happened in 1994, when Babu purchased a humble Maruti Omni van and started renting it out. Seventeen years later, his car collection is anything but humble. Apart from the Rolls Royce, his fleet includes four Mercedes, an equal number of BMWs and 50 Toyota Innovas

Look how is struggling to recall his story. Because it just brings back all the pain that he had felt. I am sure every sensible and sensitive person would definitely cry to watch this video. Even this day, he is so humble. I salute you Ramesh Babu...
Arvind Parihar Very true,,, very humble and that's what the last word he said at the end.
Real people inspiration
Made my eyes filled with tears......
Rome was NOT BUILT IN A DAY : Average LIFE TAKES EVEN LONGER for most! THIS Man MADE IT n deserves our good wishes! 🙌🏼
Wow that was so inspiring! 😊👍👌
For those who weren't happy with the presentation, please bear in mind that English is adapted language. Kannada is our native language (for those who are native to Karnataka)
One should at least try appreciating his humble efforts than criticize him.
Thanks TED for this motivational presentation!
+Prabhath MP I agree with you
+Prabhath MP He is not worthy of any negative criticism. He is a self made guy and a real human will always appreciate and respect that :)

Whatever be the expectation of these Viewers, for me he delivered what the viewers required, so there is no gap.
Leave the people who thinks themselves as perfect and being useless to this World
It's not just about cars but the hard work he has done to stand by himself
The pain he is carrying in his words could inspire anyone to be daring and confident towards your life.
Hes just choked...Just shows the amount of difficulties and hurdles he has faced during his struggle!! Hats off to you Sir!!
Exactly. One must understand what he has gone through.
The video is all about how he thought in the difficult circumstances and took action & not about how he is speaking.Truly inspiring journey.
Great Lines "The car was nothing, it was a Rolls Royce "
So well said!

The speakers must make impact and that's what he did. wonderful video #Respect for this man.
The content matters not the presentation. Ramesh Babu doesn't need that. A great applause for him.
really eye opener Mr. Ramesh. He engulfed lot of pressure to overcome the situations, a big salute to this versatile person. I am really proud , I am Bangalorean, fan of Mr Ramesh, a substitute for hard work. I wish him the success. We should recommend these kind of stories in our books to get inspiration and model life. A great video I seen
he is gr8 man n humble person.
It is an inspiring and motivational story, I was so sad for losing his father in his early stage and also it is very hard to work and earn money without his father. Each word in the speech told by his heart and it is very inspired.
-Work hard.
-Take risks sometimes when you are doing work to get success.
-Be humble to everyone.
Many of us know that "hard work pays" here is an example of a "real hard working person" Kudos to his resolve & hard work !
Taking the right decision at the right time is important. Luck, hard work, etc will follow. And Ramesh Babu did that. Respect. Pity on those haters...
Hats off to this guy!
So down to earth person.. obviously with hard-work and dedication one can achieve success !
Respect!
