From Rags to Riches: Carnegie's Extraordinary Journey

Picture this: a poor Scottish immigrant boy who became the world's richest man, then gave it all away. Andrew Carnegie's life reads like fiction, yet his impact on business and philanthropy remains profoundly real today. His autobiography, published posthumously in 1920, and his famous essay "The Gospel of Wealth" reveal a man who believed wealth carried moral responsibility. Carnegie's philosophy that "the man who dies rich, dies disgraced" continues to inspire modern billionaires like Warren Buffett, Bill Gates, and MacKenzie Scott. What makes his story so compelling isn't just his accumulation of wealth - it's his thoughtful reflection on its purpose. In an age of growing inequality, Carnegie's journey from poverty to purpose offers timeless insights about success, responsibility, and legacy.
