The fourth heroes of our photo project: Maksim Pustovoit (restaurateur, businessman) and Maksim (a graduate of the “City of Happy Children” center), who is 9 years old and who wants to have his own restaurant and cook dishes for all guests:
“I always wanted to be the best, in everything, from the first grades of the lyceum. How to be first iat school was clear to me. You study perfectly, you actively participate in social life – and voila, you are cool as a cucumber.
Then I myself, without any help, entered KIMO. It was a real challenge. Those who were allowed to spend more money than his group mates were cool in this get-together. In such an atmosphere only knowledge, singing and dancing with a tambourine will not go through.
I began to work actively and in parallel I studied. The desire to win the prestige at the institute was invincible. Since childhood, I tried to be independent and in the material sense as well.
Dad has not give me money for a restaurant. Mom too. I started working in the related field as a freshman in my first year at the institute. He was an assistant lawyer in the Vladimir market, where he opened his first coffee shop.
I am grateful to my parents for the path they have allowed me to go through, according to their advice, and most importantly – for the motivation to succeed.
If it were not for their support and strong upbringing – I would definitely not be who I am now!
I am grateful to them for such a childhood! “- Maksim Pustovoit said.
