Hey guys,

I wanted to make a thread where I - and hopefully others - can post occasional bullet points about amazing businesspeople. The purpose of this is to a) have a place to "bookmark" amazing individuals; and b) to create a repository where we can educate each other on fascinating businesspeople, wikipedias, etc. that we might not have known about.

So if you're interested in contributing, then please feel free to add in a businessperson anytime that you find someone fascinating. And please follow the format of: name, years lived, wikipedia, main takeaway, picture, and bullet points. That way we'll be able to differentiate new entries from replies, comments, etc. And if you don't want to contribute, then no worries. Hopefully some of the stuff posted you'll find interesting.

Below I'll make the first post. Colonel Sanders. Mr. KFC. An amazing story of failure after failure, leading to eventual success.
