New York High School Student Makes $72 Million On The Stock Market

In high school, I was happy if I had $72. Well that was clearly not enough for one New York High school student as he is now worth a reported $72 million!

The New York Post reports that Mohammed Islam, only 17 years old, of Queens has earned his fortune by trading stocks on his lunch break at school. He bought a BMW, that he can't drive yet because he has no license. He's already rented an apartment in Manhattan, which he can't live in yet because he still lives with Mom & Dad. Needless to say, when he turns 18, he's got a lot of good things coming his way.

Islam, has 2 partners and they hope to be billionaires by next year. The plan is to start a hedge fund when they graduate from Stuyvesant School in spring of '15.

Must be nice.

So does that make him the wolf of Stuyvesant High?
