Memoirs of a Billionaire

American entrepreneur John Davison Rockefeller was the first "dollar" billionaire in human history. By founding the oil company "Standard Oil" in 1870, Rockefeller laid the foundation for a system of empire management. The entrepreneurial spirit appeared in Rockefeller in early childhood. John would buy a pound of candy, divide it into small piles, and sell it to his own sisters at a markup. A philanthropist by nature, John Davison also established the "Rockefeller Foundation" and donated significant sums for medical and educational needs. "How I Accumulated 500,000,000 Dollars" is a guide to achieving goals from a person for whom business was a matter of upbringing, order, and strength of character.
