A Primer On Capitalism And Why I Love Entrepreneurs

This excerpt below is why I love Entrepreneurs and business people and can think of no higher calling than that. Really, I mean it.  If you read what I am about to give you, you will understand why.

I am going to include the following excerpt from “Atlas Shrugged” by Ayn Rand a Russian immigrant (legal) that came to America in the 20’s to escape from Communist Russia

This book was given to my by a friend exactly at the right time for me a few decades ago.  Rand was the first writer-philosopher-thinker that I had ever read thought like I did about money and she also named several types of people that I had run into over the years on a constant basis due to my family’s heavy involvement in politics… Namely Moochers…   For that, I am forever grateful because when you can name something, it gives your power over it.

This book helped steer me on my life’s path and why I knew that I wanted to work with Entrepreneurs because I realized that what they did and do is the best of what Man is…

If you have never read or listened to “Atlas Shrugged”  I highly suggest it as a primer in Capitalism as it will give you a better understanding about what is going on in the US and around the world as a whole.  Plus she defines my idea of Capitalism to a T.  Now she goes to some extremes to prove her points, but even though it was written nearly 60 years ago it has an eerie resemblances to what is currently happening.
