Did you know that Red Bull was created by some Thai guy named Chaleo Yoovidhya? Yeah, the go to energy drink for exhausted college students…at least, when I was in college. Via USA Today: “Forbes magazine, which ranked Chaleo the 205th richest man in the world this year with a net worth of $5 billion dollars, said he was 80 years old. Born in central Thailand’s Pichit province to a Chinese father and a Thai mother who reportedly sold fruit and ducks to survive, Chaleo died the third richest man in Thailand.” RIP Chaleo. You earned your wings by giving us wings. (Get it??)
