2. The Pursuit Of Happiness (2006)

The Pursuit Of Happyness is the amazing real-life tale of Chris Gardner who, with the power of hard work and perseverance, takes himself from sleeping on the subway all the way to the millionaire founder of his own brokerage house.

Never missing an opportunity and studying hard, after a few years, Chris works his way up the career ladder from medical equipment salesman to financial hotshot. If there's one story that demonstrates that you should never give up, no matter how bad things get, it's this one.
