I know the price of success: dedication, hard work and an unremitting devotion to the things you want to see happen.
Instead of asking parents to buy, here’s a 10-year-old boy from Puchong, Malaysia, starts his own mango juice business in order to earn enough money to buy a Sony PlayStation 4 (PS4) for himself.
The boy’s sister, Sally Nur Dinie shared the story on Twitter and it went viral with over 15,000 shares and 17,000 likes just in three days.

“My 10-year-old brother has started selling pure mango juice because he wants to buy a PS4. So I helped him find a customer earlier and they ordered six bottles. Just look at the big smile on his face,” Sally wrote.
According to the report of mStar, Sally said, “My brother has been asking Mom for a PS4 since last year and Mom promised him to buy one if he gets good results in examinations yet he failed. “
“Since our Mother has a mango pickle business, our father suggested Danish to sell mango juice on his own. Danish was so excited because it would help him to get the PS4 a little bit faster. “
Since the tweet went viral on Twitter, many netizens shows their supports by buying mango juice from Danish.
“Orders have been getting more since I posted about him on Twitter. Some people outside of Selangor now offering to buy the drinks, up to 100 orders even. They asked us to just distribute to other people,” Sally said.
“I was very touched and thankful for many kind Malaysians willing to support the business despite the economic situation of the Movement Control Order(MCO) ,” she said.
Furthermore, the viral tweet also caught the attention of Harimau Malaya and Johor Darul Ta’zim (JDT) football player Muhammad Safawi Rasid. He decided to sponsor Danish with a new PS4 because he felt that he can relate to Danish’s determination and wanted to help him out.
Netizens’ responses:
You’re an awesome sister!
