More Millionaires Were Created During The Great Depression Than In Any Other Period. Will History Repeat Itself?

The Great Depression was a difficult time for people. As someone who is part of Generation X I can’t comment on the situation first hand. I do remember hearing stories from my great grandmother as a child. Banks failed, the stock market crashed and unemployment was at an all-time high. Regulations were almost nonexistent back them. Banks were sending out notices to homeowners that they required payment in full for a mortgage and as a result foreclosures were happening everywhere. The FDIC didn’t protect your money up to $100,000. Many regulations that are in place now happened because of what occurrences that took place during the Great Depression. As a result any savings that people were able to accumulate was often stored under their mattress. After my great grandmother passed away in the late 80’s, we found money hidden in unique places all over her house. That tells me that the Great Depression had a serious impact on people. Not everyone suffered during this time though. More millionaires were created as a result of the Great Depression than in any other period in American history. Savvy entrepreneurs took advantage of low start-up costs and were able to capitalize on the mistakes that other business owners made. Equipment and supplies were so cheap they were practically being given away. Commercial rent was cheap and the demand for work was so high it drove down the wages that were paid out to workers. Employment was scarce and competition was very high. As the markets began to stabilize and strides were taken to build consumer confidence again, America was on it’s way to the second World War. Business’s that supplying goods and services to the military began to explode. Textile companies supplying metal, steel, iron and aluminum were knocking the cover off the ball. Companies making guns, ammunition, clothing, boots, belts, backpacks, were flourishing. The real estate market was yet another huge opportunity. Demand was low and as you may remember learning in your economics class that means that prices were also low. The smart entrepreneur new that the housing market and real estate would bounce back and when it did the investment that was made was large. As a result millionaires were created all over the place.

Re: When did your entrepreneurism start? Re: When did your entrepreneurism start? - I sold my science fair project when I was 9 year old after I won 2nd place. Created crystals from lumps of salt that collected on a string. Cost less than a penny to make and got $1 a piece for them. Not bad profit margin but was too young to realize I was ripping anyone off at the time.

Online Brainstorming Online Brainstorming - If any of you have read Jack Canfield's Success Principles or Robert Allen & Mark Victor Hansen, Enlightened Millionaires, you will understand how these great concepts come about. Go back to the original text on Masterminding which is Napolean Hill in Think & Grow Rich. While their are many Mastermind groups out there right now, they arent really true to the original philosophy. In its purest form a mastermind group, or inner circle is a group dedicated to one goal, one cause and they all utilize their personal connections and resources to accomplish it. I think if you really wanted to creat a 'next best thing' you need to find people to join your inner circle. STaff, friends, suppliers, mentors anyone that can dedicate some time to working on it, launching it and reaping the benefits. I think doing one online would be great..who else would be interested?
