John D. Rockefeller: The Principles Behind The Greatest Fortune in History

Every year on september the twenty sixth an old man flew a flag. He put on his good clothes, played around a golf, and received visitors at his estate. And if you asked him exactly what he was celebrating. His voice might even crack when he told you. September the twenty sixth wasn't his birthday.

It wasn't even his wedding anniversary, but September the twenty sixth was a day a merch in Cleveland, Ohio back in eighteen fifty five, looked down at a desperate sixteen year old in a dark suit who'd been pounding the pavement for weeks. And said to him. We'll give you a chance. From then on, he called it job day.

And he celebrated it every single year for the rest of his life. That first job. Paid just fifty cents a day. A few days after I started, the boy walked into a shop and bought a small red notebook for 10 cents. In it he recorded every penny he earned, every penny he spent, and every penny he gave away.
