That means it is entirely possible for a homeless person to become mega-rich. The book and later the movie, "The Pursuit of Happyness" is not fiction. Chris Gardiner, the author of the book, it is his journey from homelessness to rich. I doubt he is the only one to do that. And it doesn't take the government to help.
