“Christian Regan, now 22 years old, has never gone to school in his life. Yet, you would never know by meeting him. He reads more than most adults. Christian’s dad said, ‘He basically taught himself how to read. There was no ‘A is Ahh, B is Buhh’. We would just read books to him. He’d watch us reading him books, and before long, he was reading them instead of us.’ Instead of going to school, Christian just went to work. When he was nine years old, he started his own business – a booth at the swap meet selling video games. When Christian was 17 years old, he opened his first store on the front street of Lahaina. Within three months, he had five employees and the store was very successful.”
