FedEx
Frederick W. Smith first came up with an overnight-delivery company back in 1962 that he outlined in a paper while attending Yale University. Smith went on to become a successful businessman who took his personal wealth of $4 million, along with another $90 million from investors, to found his delivery company in 1971.
However, Federal Express failed to take off initially and was on the verge of bankruptcy. Smith took the company's last $5,000, flew to Vegas, and played blackjack. The gamble literally paid off. Smith made $24,000, which was enough to cover the cost of fuel and keep the company afloat for another week.
With a little more time, Smith raised another $11 million to keep Federal Express running. The company made its first profit in July 1975. Today, the Memphis-based company enjoys total revenue of more than $3 billion.
Amazon
You've probably heard the origins of Amazon by now. Jeff Bezos left his cushy gig on Wall Street and moved to Seattle to sell books online from his garage in 1994. By 1996, Amazon had sales that reached $15.7 million and $147.8 million in 1997. Needless to say, people were intrigued.
Then, by the end of the decade, Amazon wasn't as promising as it once seemed. Despite having revenues of $1.6 billion in 1999, Amazon still managed to lose $719 million. Things didn't get better in 2000, when it was found that Amazon had just around "$350 million of cash on hand," despite raising billions of dollars.
Jeff Bezos finally turned a profit in 2003, which was nine years after being founded and seven years after going public. Bezos was able to turn things around for Amazon by laying off one-seventh of Amazon's work force and closing some distribution centers.
But thanks for the motivation, I just hope you're still alive in 2 years to rub my shit in your face
