Methods of Prosperity 63
Newsletter examining the methods used by historical figures to accumulate wealth.
What makes you happy? That’s a trick question. This newsletter is not about happiness. It’s about how to become a billionaire. The irony is that, doing what makes you happy can make you a billionaire. For Phil Knight, the co-founder of Nike, wealth and success is a byproduct of chasing after your bliss.
Nike was co-founded by Phil Knight and his track coach, Bill Bowerman, on January 25, 1964. The original name of the company was Blue Ribbon Sports. They rebranded to Nike, Inc. on May 30, 1971, named after the Greek goddess of victory.
“You ask, what is our aim? I can answer in one word. It is victory. Victory at all costs. Victory in spite of terror. Victory however long and hard the road may be. For without victory, there is no survival.”
– Winston Churchill 0 reply
