　　At age 23, Indian entrepreneur Srikanth Bolla is the CEO of a company valued at INR 50 crore (over $7.5 million). Today, he considers himself the luckiest man in the world, not for his success, but for having supportive parents who always stood by him.
　　When Srikanth was born blind, several of his parents’ friends and relatives advised them to abandon him. That would indeed have been the easier thing to do, given the fact that they were poor and uneducated, earning a mere INR 20,000 ($300) a year. But they chose to not only keep the boy, but also raise him in a positive, loving environment. “They are the richest people I know,” he often says.
