Entrepreneurship

Ricky Andrade Started From Scratch to Become a Multinational Entrepreneur

Self-made entrepreneurs are a rare breed. It takes a unique blend of fiery passion, confidence, self-discipline, and determination to make the transition from an average Joe to a successful entrepreneur. Such entrepreneurs come from a myriad of backgrounds with different financial structures. But self-made entrepreneurs stand out because they weren’t handed a business. Rather they took an idea, talent, or specialized profession and turned it into a successful enterprise. 

When you don’t come from money, the risks are greater. Still, some managed to take the risk and make a name for themselves. Read on to learn about the self-made Mexican millionaire Ricky Andrade. 

About Ricky 

Ricky Andrade is a visionary millionaire, investor, and entrepreneur. He owns 8 companies, including a tech company, an NGO, an academy, and more. One of his companies is Market Masters, which is the world’s premier online resource for trading. 

Ricky started from a humble background and underwent a series of challenges. He grew up in the bad part of LA and spent most of his time constantly moving during the peak of his childhood years. After completing his education, he landed a job as a dishwasher technician. Ricky states that although he was successful in his profession, he was disillusioned. He would wake up each morning filled with dread at the thought of going to work. It was on his 21st birthday that Ricky made a life-altering decision. He opted to quit his job without having a clear plan of what came next. All he knew was that he wanted to break free from the rat race and achieve financial independence on his terms. 

Taking that leap of faith 

Ricky took a leap of faith and left his job behind to pursue entrepreneurship. He immersed himself in self-education, devouring books, attending seminars, and seeking out mentors who could guide him on the new path. It was during this time that he discovered day trading. Ricky was fascinated by the potential to make money through forex, crypto, stocks, and later real estate and business. 

Fast forward six years, and Ricky has grown 8 separate million-dollar businesses, including Market Masters. The academy has more than 50,000 users and is recognized as the world’s #1 leading trading community. Ricky is living the fruits of his labor, with one of his recent financial wins being a $100,000 day. He has homes worldwide and a wife who is featured in the show, ‘The Dubai Housewife.’ 

Ricky was featured on national British television for his success and currently has a TV show underway. This Mexican millionaire has reached the heights of success and luxury living. Yet all this success started from a leap of faith. When Ricky left his job, he had $1500 to his name. Still, he started a $1 million enterprise with only $1000. 

Making millions by age 22 

Ricky has managed to make millions by the age of 22. By 27, he already had 8 successful businesses. There were obstacles that he had to overcome, and there are challenges that he still encounters. However, this versatile entrepreneur views obstacles as lessons and doesn’t let them dissuade him from his path. 

One of the critical lessons that upcoming entrepreneurs can learn from Ricky is that you shouldn’t let fear cripple you. Although he had a successful 9 to 5 job, he didn’t let it stop him from becoming great. Currently, Ricky helps over 50,000 people improve their lives and reach their financial destinies.
