So far, there have been so many successful men and women in the world. And it’s no surprise for many of us to dream of doing business when we grow up. However, Moziah Bridge tells us quite different story.

With the help of Dayond John, CEO of the famous US clothes brand FUBU, Bridges built his own company.
