These men should have been considered some of the world's most
successful men. At least they found the secret of making money.
Now more than 55 years later, do you know what has become of these
men?
a. The President of the largest steel company, Charles
Schwab, died a pauper.
b. The President of the largest gas company, Edward Hopson,
is insane.
c. The President of the N.Y.S.E., Richard Whitney, was
released from prison to die at home.
d. The greatest wheat speculator, Arthur Cooger, died
abroad, penniless.
e. The President of the Bank of International Settlement
shot himself.
f. The Great Bear of Wall Street, Cosabee Rivermore, died of
suicide.
The same year, 1923, the winner of the most important golf
championship, Gene Sarazan, won the U.S. Open and PGA Tournaments.
Today he is still playing golf and is solvent.
Conclusion: Stop worrying about business and start playing golf!
