I remember a short time ago hearing all of the experts saying that Apple was history, they might as well close their doors. Steve Jobs came back to Apple and has led that company into record sales. This was on Drudge about Apple's announcement today of 2 new computers. My brother was smart enough to buy Apple stock at 13 dollars a share when the experts waere forecasting it's demise. Since then the stock split making his original price 6.50 a share. I just looked at the latest price. . . 80.47 per share. A good example of never giving up and working very hard to come up with the most innovative designs and quality product, an American company to be very proud of.
Gordon Bethume is another example of a CEO that brought his company back from bankruptcy to one of the top airlines in the industry. Both of these guys earned the respect and admiration of the people that worked for them and with that you can do almost anything.
