there are very very few self-made millionaires under say, 21. less than 2,000 is my estimate. at least a couple of those would be 2p2ers, I think.

Be in a Gerber ad?

Fair enough. I'd say that is kind of borderline at best, since I would consider "self-made" to imply that you were at least aware of what you were doing to make money, and I'm not sure any baby is capable of that. But it probably would fit under the technicalities of this question.

Yea, that's definitely not self-made (the savings bond part). It's basically the opposite of self-made, as it's just someone flat out giving you money.

Is there any way to prove this one way or the other? I hate when people offer bets on things that clearly can't come to fruition, so I hope you have thought of something I haven't.
