Seed Capital success stories

Seed capital success stories; motivation for all the first time investors out there. Sound em out. 

I began in the service industry, and worked over 3 summers while in High school in the late 70s. It wasn't easy getting financing for my first renovation (a dilapidated A-frame), but I am very fortunate that the home prices were significantly lower at the time. I found a buyer right away after a four month renovation post-secondary school, and was able to clear enough on the selling price to finance my next purchase. This was a slow method of raising initial (Seed) capital, but I am glad I didn't rush, as it paid off in spades and paved the way for many future purchases to come.
