Ten years ago, Juan Hernandez was earning $28 an hour as a welder at SpaceX.
After moving from Mexico, he spent his days helping build rockets while most people focused only on the engineers and executives behind the company.
In 2015, SpaceX gave him $10,000 worth of stock when he became a full-time employee. Instead of selling, he kept buying more shares with every paycheck.
Year after year, he stayed patient.
Now, with $SPCX trading at $170, those shares are worth more than $1 million.
Sometimes the biggest fortunes aren't made overnight they're built one paycheck, one share, and one decade at a time.
