Despite good test results and check-ups, Nick Vujicic was born with the absence of all four limbs. This condition made him struggle during his youth as he battled with bouts of depression as well as bullying. The support of his family and his faith in God eventually helped him rise out of his depression and made him the captain of Runcorn State High School during his education there. After high school, Nick attended Griffith University and graduated at the age of 21 with a degree in Commerce and a double major in accountancy and financial planning.
His rise in net worth began when he became a motivational speaker, travelling the world to speak to different audiences. Nick has also had a hand in the production of two films; “Life’s Greater Purpose” is a short documentary that was filmed in 2005, and there is also the film, “No Arms, No Legs, No Worries” which focuses on the problems of the youth. He’s been featured in many television shows, and has some of his speeches and church sermons available on DVD. Nick also starred in the 2009 film “The Butterfly Circus” which garnered the Doorpost Film Project’s top prize, the Method Fest Independent Film Festival’s Best Short Film and Best Actor in a Short Film award.
Another award Nick attained was the “Australian Young Citizen Award” in 1990. He was also a contender for the same award during 2005.
