He really wasn't, but he used this persona to run for office and to point to the fact he was born in a log cabin. He was actually very wealthy.

"self-made" is somewhat imprecisely defined. Some American presidents who might be described as self-made are Abraham Lincoln, Andrew Jackson, Millard Fillmore, Andrew Johnson. These men were all born into poor families, received little help from their parents and had little formal education.
Even though Andrew Jackson was relatively wealthy, he campaigned as a common person. He stood for the rights of everyone whether they were rich or poor.
Andrew Jackson was considered a man of the people because he was a common man and gave other common men what they needed. He became the very first non-aristocrat President of the United States.
The upper class viewed Andrew Jackson's inauguration with disdain and apprehension. They considered it a populist affair that symbolized the rise of the "common man" over elite interests, fearing it would undermine their traditional social and political dominance. Jackson's background as a self-made man and his appeal to the masses challenged the established order, leading many in the upper class to worry about the potential for social unrest and the erosion of their privileges.
The cast of The Self-Made Man - 2005 includes: Bob Stern

He really wasn't "the first self made man", but it was his political image he presented. He was a wealthy man and used the "frontier " image to win the presidency. It is true he was poor as a child, but became a wealthy lawyer and military hero. He also had a scandalous relationship with the married woman who became his wife. Jackson and his wife were accused of a adulterous relationship because she hadn't been legally divorced when she married Jackson. His strong personality and his supporters would shape themselves into political parties.
