The First Person to Become a Billionaire

John D. Rockefeller was the first person to ever become a billionaire. He became a millionaire by his 20’s, and a billionaire by his 50’s. He became very sick. Agonizing, he awoke one morning and remembered a dream he had and in that dream he became very aware of not taking anything with him when he died. This dream completely re framed his thinking.

He Didn’t Find Life until He Found Generosity 

For first time in his life he made a choice to be generous. In those moments, the John D. Rockefeller foundation was established.  From the moment he began live on purpose a generous life, his body  began to heal and the man who was not going to live, lived to be 98.

He didn’t find life until he found generosity and purpose.
