Everyday I am in the gym at the same time as an old man on the treadmill. Today I stopped him after the workout and introduced myself. Turns out he started his business in 1982. He has scaled it over the last 43 years, slowly but steadily every year. Today the business does $4.5BN in revenue. He owns 100% of it. Never raised a dollar. At 75, he remains CEO. That’s a magical story of entrepreneurship.
