#52 – Making the Best of Your Situation
This world is about resourcefulness, not resources. Lloyd Blankfein, the current CEO of Goldman Sachs, was a postal worker’s son who grew up in Brooklyn’s Linden Houses. He worked as a concession vendor at Yankee Stadium carrying trays. He vigorously worked at school, which earned him a full ride to Harvard. He then took academics one step further and went to Harvard law, which later landed him on Wall Street. Howard Schultz, Founder of Starbucks is another who grew up poor. He was forced to live in a cramped two-bedroom unit in the Canarsie Projects of Brooklyn when he was seven. Now, you see a Starbucks on every corner, which started from a small coffee shop in Seattle.
