How Baron Phillipe de Rothschild Made His Money


When he was young, Phillipe once bought an apple on the way to school for 2 Francs.

When he arrived at school, someday offered him 4F for it, and he sold it.

The next day, he took that 4F and bought 2 apples, which he sold atschool for 8F.

The next day, he took that 8F and bought 4 apples which he sold for 16F.

The next day, his uncle died and left him $1.5 billion.
