Gurbaksh Chahal, more commonly known as just “G”, at just 25-years-old, is one of the youngest and most successful entrepreneurs of recent history.
Chahal was born in the town of Tarn Taran, near Amritsar in Punjab, India to Avtar and Arjinder Chahal. In 1985, his parents received a visa for America through a lottery-based system in India. At the age of 4, he immigrated to the United States with his family and settled in San Jose, California. At that time, his parents arrived in the U.S. with only $25 in their pocket and struggled working menial jobs in their early years. Their main goal in life was to see their four children succeed. Gurbaksh was the youngest of his siblings.
He came from an exceedingly strict and disciplined background where education was paramount. Chahal went to public schools all throughout his early life in San Jose, attending high school for two years, but soon enrolling in Accel Middle College, which allowed him to enter college while finishing his high school degree. |
