Any entrepreneur in history? I would pick John D. Rockefeller. The titan transformed the modern world by bringing energy in the form of oil. The world returned the favor by making him the richest man in it. I bet he would have some wisdom worth absorbing!
Definitely Rockefeller was awesome. He was a big believer in reinvesting profits to grow the company. He was amazing with money, his financial journals tracked every penny. Even still John D. Rockefeller was no Scrooge as he gave generously to many charities.
So true. It's on my list to read his biography called "Titan" by Ron Chernow.
