Steve Harvey went from sleeping in his car on $50 a week to multimillionaire status. He says making money is hard, but keeping it is even harder | Fortune
"Steve Harvey is everywhere. He hosts Family Feud (including its celebrity and African editions), he stars in his own courtroom comedy show Judge Steve Harvey, and runs a four-hour weekday radio program. Add to that a clothing line, investments, a foundation, and a sprawling resume of other venues, and it's clear Harvey has built his own personal empire. But it wasn't always glitz and success for the now 68-year-old."
"For Harvey, financial success is like a physical feat: Doing 100 push-ups might take years of training, but it's even harder to stay in shape to keep doing it. "To stay successful, guess what you got to do? You got to lock and hold. And after 100, that locking and holding is hard because you've done burned everything up getting there.""
""If you can understand that it can change for you tomorrow, it'll give you the fortitude to hang in there today because all you got to do is wake up.""
Steve Harvey hosts multiple television shows including Family Feud and Judge Steve Harvey, runs a four-hour weekday radio program, and operates a clothing line, investments, and a foundation. He endured nearly three years living in his car, keeping food cold in a cooler and surviving on minimal income, an experience that reinforced focus on the future. Harvey stresses that making money is difficult, but keeping and growing it is harder, requiring sustained discipline. He compares financial success to physical training: reaching a peak takes time, and maintaining that success demands continued effort and resilience.
