Every single thing can change for the better, no matter however hard it is. Even a family in utter poverty can become prosperous in a couple of generations.

About This Quote

In the early 1900s, a man named John D. Rockefeller became one of the richest people on earth. In his lifetime, he saw the oil industry expand from a single refinery into a multinational corporation that controlled an entire market. He started out in a small town in New York and ended up in a mansion in New York.

Although he was born into wealth, his family did not have a particularly happy start to life. His father died of tuberculosis when he was young and his mother had to work for years to support him and his siblings. Rockefeller became fascinated by the concept of making money and success at an early age.

In his later years, Rockefeller donated many millions of dollars to causes such as education and the arts. In the end, he did not let hard work get in the way of success. Instead of letting small setbacks and things that were out of your control get in your way, you should always remember that you can change it all in just a couple generations.
