Have you ever imagined waking up one day and realising that you are the proud owner of $ 300 million. Sounds thrilling and a bit dreamy at the same time. But for 24-year-old Gurbaksh Chahal, a resident of Tarn Taran, the life has taken a turn of 360 degree. Gurbkash Chahal’s second successful online business venture, BlueLithium, has just been sold to Yahoo! for a staggering $300MM. Young, bold, handsome and extremely gifted, Chahal has already joined the elite ranks of online entrepreneurs Bill Gates, Mark Zuckerberg, Larry Page and Sergey Brin. Chahal, at 25 years old, has already accomplished more than most people do in their lifetime.
