From Homeless to CEO at 19: Aleksandr Iordache Is Redefining the Entrepreneurial Hustle
At just 19 years old, Alexandru Iordache is already a powerhouse across two industries—digital marketing and private healthcare—proving that age, background, and traditional education are no barriers to success. With an inspiring rise from near-homelessness to be part of a multimillion-dollar empire, Iordache is the embodiment of what it means to hustle with heart and purpose.
Born and raised in a struggling household, Iordache's early life was far from easy. Raised by a single mother, he grew up on the edge of poverty. There were times when his family was dangerously close to homelessness. But instead of succumbing to circumstances, he rose to them—becoming the man of the house far earlier than most. Paying bills as a teenager, taking care of his mother, and striving to give her the life she dreamed of, he built his drive not from privilege, but from pure necessity and love.
'I didn't start from zero,' he says. 'I started from negative.'
Today, he's not just helping his family—he's treating them to the vacations, luxury, and stability they once only imagined.
Alex's flagship business, The ADD Doctor, is a social media marketing agency focused on helping contractors scale through precise advertising strategies. Partnering with his close collaborator, Bouza Santos, the agency works with clients across the United States and Canada. Their primary edge? Delivering tangible results.
To date, the agency has generated over $4 million in client revenue, working with contractor networks and teams that collectively manage Facebook ad spend reaching into the hundreds of millions.
But Alexr's approach isn't just about ROI. It's personal. He and his team don't just consult; they embed themselves in the growth journeys of the businesses they serve. The success of his clients is proof that raw ambition, when paired with the right strategy, creates magic.
While the agency is built on partnership, Iordache stands alone at the helm of his second business venture: private hospitals and children's hospitals across Romania. With a sharp business sense and a mission to improve healthcare access and standards, he successfully launched and scaled facilities that are now pivotal to communities in Romania.
His work in healthcare isn't just about profit—it's about legacy. And with strong revenue performance and a growing portfolio, it's a sector where his influence is only set to grow.
Aleksandr is not stopping at business. His book, The Three Fs: Family, Fuck, Finance , struck a chord with a generation looking for unapologetic honesty and raw life lessons. With over 12,000 copies sold, it's more than a book—it's a statement.
Outside of the office, Alex travels the world engaging in high-intensity physical challenges that reflect his inner philosophy: life is about pushing past limits, mentally and physically. His online presence, shaped by authenticity and strong networking, has turned him into a recognizable figure in entrepreneurial and motivational circles.
Alex Iordache doesn't have a diploma. He didn't go to college. But what he has is something far more powerful—vision, action, and results. His story is a masterclass in self-education and tenacity.
'Everything I've learned, I've learned by doing,' he says. 'I don't need a piece of paper to tell me I'm built for this.'
And the world is beginning to take notice. With plans already in motion to expand both businesses internationally, and his sights set firmly on a spot in Forbes 30 Under 30, Iordache is a name you'll be hearing more often.
With agency growing, hospitals thriving, and a book that resonates with thousands, Alexandru Iordache is only just getting started. He's not just building businesses—he's building a movement.
From adversity to abundance, his story isn't just about money. It's about meaning. It's about being proof that no matter where you start, greatness is always on the table.
And if his journey so far is any indicator, Aleksandr Iordache is destined not just for Forbes lists, but for legacy.
