GUEST,Mike Miller Folklore: Entrepreneurship stories as Folklore (29) RE: Folklore: Entrepreneurship stories as Folklore 30 Jul 06


I just noticed that the thread is titled "Entrepreneur Stories as Folklore" and, as such, there are lots of stories about self made millionaires in traditional lore. In fact, it is the American dream.
We love reading about the Astors, the Kennedeys, the Rothchilds, William Randolph Hearst, Old John D., Henry Ford and all the other rags to riches tales. When the Biography Channel does Millionaire Week, their rating soar. We want to hear about Ray Kroc and Warren Buffet. The tabloids are filled with tales of the titans. It is only on the song front that the nabobs are being negated.
