The road to the billionaires club was not paved with roses, while it was full of problems and life bumps, for a person who is basically a refugee, with a dark future, who later turned into a billionaire, and became one of the most important and famous businessmen in California, USA.

But.. how does a refugee turn into a billionaire? This is how Paris Match magazine asked in its investigation about the Palestinian businessman, Muhammad Hadid, and came in its introduction, that the businessman who was born in Palestine in the Nazareth neighborhood in 1948, the same year the declaration of the state of Israel, And five minutes from the place where Jesus was born... His great-grandfather was the Prince of Nazareth, and with the establishment of the Zionist entity, his family sought refuge in Syria, and they lived there for several months in a camp. The project of immigration to America was halted by throwing the dice at ten tables that his father had to win in order for the Jordanian ambassador to give him passports that they later used to travel to America.

For his part, Mohamed, who speaks a little English and some French, dreamed of being an architect, and in particular, he dreamed above all of being a businessman.

At the age of twenty, and in partnership with an Englishman and another Greek, whom he met on a plane, he opened in Rhodes a shop (the Bucket), which later became one of the most important nightclubs in Europe.

His love for luxury cars prompted him to become an importer in Washington, DC, and one year later, he designed his first big house. He did not choose an unknown place, but chose the Froot Lauderdale area or the Florida gun, the city that every billionaire dreams of owning a villa in. a suburb, and made a profit of a quarter of a million dollars.

Then he set out for Qatar, the small emirate with a population of 2 million, but ranked fourth in the list of gas-exporting countries, and Hadid comments on that stage that he had everything the emirate wanted. They wanted an architect to build the #Sheraton Doha, he introduced himself, and overnight he became an architect, making a fortune in the heart of the desert sands.

Carlton, and to win the contract to build this hotel, Hadid competed with Donald Trump, the current candidate in the US presidential election.

Indeed, that confrontation occurred between Hadid and Donald Trump in a battle governed by vanity and targeting dust and stones, and the confrontation ended with the victory of the businessman of Arab origin over the American The dreamer of the White House. Hadid offers his advice on how to beat Trump. Certainly, Trump respects the strong opponent, but if he feels that whoever stands in front of him is weak, he will crush him, and added, saying: Trump is one of the men who gives you a blow to the head before he sits down to negotiate with you, and confirmed that he loves this type. of men. At the age of forty-two, Mohamed Hadid had to conquer failure, which is an important and necessary feature for success in America, and in 1990, the markets collapsed and he lost 90% of his wealth, and he found that everyone refused to lend him, and for two years Hadid had to carry out modest operations with small companies. During this period, he participated in the Winter Games in Albertville within the speed skating competitions. He was the largest Olympic player, and he did not win anything, but he participated, survived and laughed in these games.

Within ten years, he returned again and rose from the ashes with a golden idea, which is to reinvent the dream of the wealthy Los Angeles, and built white palaces that became the hallmark in Beverly Hills, Bel Air and Holmby Hills, where the wealthy of America live, and the palaces were characterized by Turkish baths and lakes dedicated to swans.

His clients include the daughters of the president of Uzbekistan, and some billionaires from the Middle East who are keen to keep their identities anonymous.

Hadid was subjected to some criticism and accusations of not paying attention to environmental standards, but he managed to get out of 200 inspections that did not prove anything wrong. Hadid admits that he feels sympathy for refugees all over the world, whether Christian, Muslim or Jew, which explains that his father had given shelter to a Polish Jewish family.

A recent article in the New York Times accused him of all evil on earth, and he replies that these accusations are nothing but a bundle of lies. Hadid adds that liars, like zebras, cannot get rid of their behavior. Hadid confirms that this issue is not against him as a businessman, but against him because he is an Arab of Palestinian origin, his father and mother are from Palestine, and Hadid points out that he was born in Palestine but never lived in it. He adds, "Most of the people who attack me here don't even know where Palestine is on the map."
