#84 Aristotle Onassis

He thinks in terms of acceleration of progress. And has achieved it. Only his quiet authority suggests that this is the same man who has for years figured in the headlines of English, French, Italian, Spanish Greek. German and American newspapers.

Predictable labels attached to unpredictable stories describing him as the mystery millionaire. The merchant adventurer. The golden Greek. About his multi million dollar deals, real or imagined, financial writers never cease speculating. However fascinating the true facts of his life.

Inventive minds keep developing new permutations to titillate the imagination with artificial ingredients. Onassis is not an officer of any corporation, domestic or foreign. But an owner. Holding stocks of corporations which give him control. Control over interests worth an estimated five hundred million dollars.
