TechFlow to TechFlow, on February 10, Binance founder CZ(CZ) said in an interview with the All-In podcast that when he was 14 years old, he worked at McDonald's. At that time, the minimum wage in British Columbia, Canada was 6 Canadian dollars per hour, but McDonald's only paid him 5.5 Canadian dollars due to a special exemption.

He began learning programming in high school, hesitated between the University of Waterloo and McGill University when choosing a college, and ultimately chose McGill to study biology, but switched to computer science after one semester. CZ avoided student loans through summer and academic year part-time jobs, received small amounts of financial support from his father and sister in his early years, and later became completely self-sufficient. In his twenties, he turned to business development.
