An example to follow


Every person that has investigated about the richest man on earth definitely has found the name of Donald Trump more than once. This American business magnate born in New York City 63 years ago is the owner of Trump Entertainment Resorts, which operates several casinos and hotels. He even has his own reality show called The Apprentice, a really interesting TV show in which the winner has the right to run one of Trump’s businesses. He is the owner of a lot of hotels and big towers around the world. But the reason I decided to make this post about Mr. Trump is because he reminds me a lot of what Tec is expecting us to do, be innovative leaders and be entrepreneurs. If it wasn’t for his big ideas, Donald Trump would surely not have even half of the money he owns right now. Reading an article in the newspaper, I found out that in1995 Trump bought a building located in Wall Street in New York. The old building was bought at the price of 1 million dollars. So Trump decided to make it a luxury building, with first class offices. Now the biggest businessman operates from there and the building is calculated to be worth around 400 million dollars, not so bad for an investment of 1 million dollars. This is the result of a person who thought and worked harder than others, he visualized a luxury building and he built it, ergo we have to learn from people like Mr. Trump.
