Extract

As Kelly Fitzgerald points out, Wal-Mart founder Sam Walton, who passed away on April 5, 1992, "was like no other man in this world," and has been described as "industrious (and with) a burning ambition to succeed." As a businessman, Sam Walton "started his own business from almost nothing (and) changed the field of management" in relation to his Wal-Mart ventures (Internet, 2003). This description of Sam Walton is the basis of his amazing success as one of America's most outstanding entrepreneurs and shows that hard work, dedication and perseverance can lead to untold riches.
