Muhammad Islam, a 17 year old teen from Queens, New York has made, hold your breath, $72 million from trading stocks on his lunch breaks at school.

 
His teenage friends obviously adore him, because who will not love a self-made millionaire friend who takes them out to dine on $400 caviar and owns a BMW, though he is yet to get the license.


 
He also owns an apartment in posh Manhattan neighborhood.
 
Not to mention he has made his immigrants parents proud who have migrated from Bengal region of South Asia; his father has left work.
 
He started dabbling in penny stocks at a tender age of 9 and spends most of his time during school breaks trading oil and gold futures.
 
However, Muhammad refused to divulge details of his total net worth but he admitted it was in high eight figures which in itself tells a lot about his wealth.
 
He draws his inspiration from billionaire hedge-funder Paul Tudor Jones, who is the founder of famous Tudor Investment Corporation. Jones was ranked 108th richest American in Forbes list.
 
Muhammad Islam wishes to start a hedge fund next year when he will be old enough to get his broker-dealer license and make billions with his friends.

 


 
Like he says, "It's not just about the money, we want to create brotherhood. Like all of us who are connected, who are in something together, who have influence."

He also unabashedly shows his wealth and lavish lifestyle regularly posting videos of him being partying, playing poker and dancing with women.

 


 Muhammad Instagram profile says it all, "More Money Less Problems", it further says "followed the market, hunted for opportunities and used everything from fundamental analysis to technical analysis and price action to speculate the market".
