Famous, glorified "little guy(s) make millions" story must also include this reality
It's the oft-told YOUTUBE story.
3 guys in a garage develop the biz. Shortly thereafter google buys them out for 1.6 BILLION! One little factoid usually missing from the telling of the story... Their idea PLUS [little factoid] = huge success. That missing piece is... err, ummm, ELEVEN MILLION DOLLARS they were lent to develop the biz. Full story here... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/YouTube So, yes it's a rags to riches story, if by "rags" you mean $11,000,000.00 !!! -- TW
