Bill Gates was not a loser growing up. He was the grandson and son of lawyers. If you read anything about him, by the time he was 17, he was a millionaire. He created the company that produced the boxes with hoses in the road that measure traffic that you see all over.
He had good enough grades to be accepted to Harvard. He decided to leave school to create Microsoft. Smart move.
So if you are just basing you answer on his younger pictures, you're proving the statement "you can't judge a book by it's cover". He's worth $53,000,000,000!

Abraham Lincoln. He came from a very poor family. Got himself inot business in his early 20's then went bankrupt. Lost a sweetheart when he was about 26. He ran for governor, congressman, senator, and never won in any of them. But the turning point in his career came when he was 52 and ran for President, he won for the very first time and became one of America's greatest presidents.
Bill Gates was a drop-out, now he's one of the richest persons in the world.
Thomas Edison was also a drop-out, but because of him, we have electricity!
Einstein was also a drop-out, but he discovered the theory of relativity.
there are many more....

Of course! But when you say "loser" was that a loser in your eyes...you were young as well. Guess it depends on your definition of a loser.
