James Dyson has an estimated net worth of $13.9 billion as of April 2019. Taking an existing product and making it better is another path to success. James Dyson was frustrated by his vacuum cleaner losing suction as it filled up, so made a better version. As no one would buy his design, he set up his own factory to make and sell it.
