Businessmen Books

Sugar Plum Fairy: Started reading Sam Walton's autobiography Made In America, today....

I started reading that years ago. Always meant to get back to it. I remember him saying that Big City reporters were surprised at his simple life, expecting to see "hoochie coochie girls down by the swimming pool."

Another good businessman book I did read (I think) long ago was Ray Croc's talking about starting (rather, taking over and expanding) McD's. Said something like, we don't sell burgers. We own the land under the restaurants. (Also the grain farms, cattle ranches...).

How both of them must spin in their graves to see their businesses today!
