I'm new to the forum this is my first post, so I'll keep it short.

Here's some notes on how it happened & you can do it too.

First of all believe in yourself & that anything is possible, stay positive.

I won't say who the billionaire is for privacy concerns, obviously.

The way I got in was by providing value. That was the main number one thing that was most important. Realize it's charity for them, they're doing you a favor just meeting with you. They don't need you, because they already make enough.

You probably won't get to meet with them in the beginning right away. I had to try talking with several associates, in between, just to get lucky scheduling a meeting with someone close like a right hand to him.

The deal I made was small, relatively. I'm fortunate to be in business incubators, with many entrepreneurs & mentors. Successful figures surround themselves with other similar types that are successful. I see him in meetings 2-3 times per week, but I don't usually approach to say hello every time interrupting out of respect.
Be grateful for everything lastly, eternally.
