These men should have been
considered some of the world's most successful men. At least, they found the secret of
making money. Now almost 80 years later, do you know what became of these men?
1. The president of the largest steel company,
Charles
Schwab, died a pauper.
2. The president of the largest gas company, Edward
Hopson, went insane.
3. The president of the NYSE, Richard Whitney, was
released from prison to die at home.
4. The greatest wheat speculator, Arthur Cooger,
died
abroad, penniless.
5. The president of the Bank of International
Settlement,
shot himself.
6. The Great Bear of Wall Street, Cosabee
Livermore, died of
suicide.
In that same year, 1923, the winner of the most
important golf championship, Gene Sarazan, won both the US Open and PGA Championship.
He died in 1999 at the age of 95, played golf until
he was 92, and was financially solvent at his death.
Conclusion: Stop worrying about business and other
BS and start playing golf!
