I’m talking about John D. Rockefeller — an American icon and arguably one of the most mysterious and controversial businessmen in our nation’s history.  Rockefeller got his start as an assistant bookkeeper for a produce merchant at the age of 16.

Two years after starting as a bookkeeper, he purchased a partnership in another merchant, Maurice Clark. —Recommended Link— EXPIRES TODAY: A $200 Voucher For This Life-Changing Opportunity Imagine getting in on the next Facebook for 33 cents… Or the next Google for 44 cents… Or the next Apple for 78 cents… That’s the sort of opportunity I’m talking about here… You need to see if this offer is for you before it expires at midnight tonight.

A few days ago, I told you about a little-known indicator that’s making a small group of investors a lot of money. #-ad_banner-#Unlike other indicators, it’s precise and simple to use.

We call this indicator the “Maximum Profit Score,” because it consistently beats the market and often with less risk than buy-and-hold investing. It can flag exactly which stocks are about to jump double and triple digits… Read More

In the small town where I grew up, our veterinarian was something of a local hero.  He’d take late night calls for a sick pet or a colicked horse. And given that our nearest hospital was an hour’s drive away, he even x-rayed my broken elbow.  I even witnessed him miraculously revive my sister’s dog after it had been struck by a car.  Like I said, he’s a local hero in my small hometown.  #-ad_banner-#But I’d wager that many folks across the country think of their animal physician as a hero.

Similar to how grateful we are after a doctor helps us battle through an illness or mend a broken arm, we are forever thankful for the animal clinic that’s cured our sick puppy or kitten. Pets are a large part of our lives. Here in Austin, Texas, dogs are welcome in nearly every establishment. And new ones that cater to man’s best friend are opening up all the time. Take Yard Bar for example — a local business that features more than 20,000 square feet of playground for your dog. You can grab a burger and beer while your dog runs around and makes friends.
