I think I have the potential to be distracted with too much gear (who doesn’t?!), so I try to keep things on the simple side as far as gear goes. Tell us about your production environment? I’ve always got at least a few projects in the works in FL that I’m pumped about. I immediately wanted to be good at it and I remember feeling envious of anyone out there that possibly was, but it wasn’t two days later I was creating simple stuff and excited about it. I still remember the night a friend introduced me to it. It’s really, really fun, and I’m very thankful. I just make whatever it is I want to make, and I try to share the fun stuff on YouTube while being as goofy as possible. I just released my third CD (still not signed to a label) and things are still going better than I could imagine. Eventually that turned into an independent album release which did way better than I thought it would. I started performing on YouTube with a homemade beat looped in the background on FL Studio while I jammed out on the keyboards. Tell us about your music and what motivates you? We caught up with Ronald and asked him about his music, FL Studio and what he has been up to. His unique style and natural musical talent is hard to resist. It’s no wonder Ronald’s videos have over 70 million views. It is easy to become rich from Ronald Read's story.Ronald Jenkees first came to our attention banging out the most awesome keyboard solos on YouTube. This story just demonstrates that wealth-building comes more from saving and investing than from income. Then he waited, for decades on end, as tiny savings compounded into more than $8 million. Read saved what little he could and invested it in blue-chip stocks. There was no lottery win and no inheritance. In his will, the former janitor left $2 million to his stepkids and more than $6 million to his local hospital and library. Fewer than 4,000 of them had a net worth of over $8 million when they passed away. Which is when the humble rural janitor made international headlines. He was widowed at age 50 and never remarried. He bought a two-bedroom house for $12,000 at age 38 and lived there for the rest of his life. Read fixed cars at a gas station for 25 years and swept floors at JCPenney for 17 years. His life was about as low-key as they come. He was the first person in his family to graduate high school. How did a gas station attendant make this huge fortune? Any magic?
Yes, he left $2 million to his two stepchildren and gave $6 million to his local hospital and library. When he died, Read’s name was all over the news headlines. His name was Ronald Read, and he was a retired janitor and gas station attendant. On June 2nd, 2014, a 92-year-old man died in Vermont.
