Introduction
I have always believed that each man makes his own happiness and is responsible for his own problems. It is a simple philosophy. I find that it functions as well for me now that I'm a multimillionaire, as it did when I was selling paper cups for $35 a week, and playing the piano part-time to support my wife and baby daughter. It follows that a man must take advantage of any opportunity that comes along, and I've always done that, too.
After 17 years of selling paper cups, I saw opportunity appear in the form of a milkshake machine called the Multimixer, and I grabbed it. It wasn't easy to give up security and a well-paying job to strike out on my own. My wife was shocked and incredulous. Yet I was alert to other opportunities, too, when I heard about an incredible thing that was happening with my Multimixer out in California. I kept getting these calls, and the message was always the same. I want one of those mixers of yours like the McDonald Brothers have out in California. I got curious, who were the McDonald Brothers? And why were customers picking up on the Multimixer from them when I had similar machines in lots of other places?
