The Homeless Boy Who Invented Louis Vuitton

Louis Vuitton is the No.1 luxury brand in the world - valued at over $30 billion. Its history dates back to the 19th century and begins with a homeless teenager who could only dream of success. With no money or food, he worked odd jobs with artisans and craftsmen to survive, barely making any money but learned valuable skills that led to pioneering modern luggage and creating a billion-dollar empire.

Love hearing that he, Coco Chanel, & others came from humble beginnings to luxury success. That’s why it’s interesting when sales people judge those they think don’t belong in those stores, little do they know the customers actually have the same spirit of the founder of the brand while the salesperson can probably only afford it after an employee discount.

There is a bar in Ireland, Sean's Bar, that has ownership records back to 900. Fun fact 🤓 And in Japan, there is a business from around 600, but they were bought out in 2006 and are now a subsidiary. Imagine being the owner who let it go under? Haha. Anyway. Fun factss weeeee.

In a way, I disagree because unlike a lot of parents, he got to watch his son become a brilliant craftsman and I’m sure he did not fear that when he died that his son wouldn’t have any problem stepping into his shoes. Louis Vuitton was a very proud man and enjoyed seeing his passion come to life. Even if that only meant for a little while, it’s more than most people get to see. My dad , a brilliant Stanford grad, who was also successful, always said “do what you love, what you are passionate about, and the money will follow.” So true !
