A friend sent me some fake news on John D Rockefeller which made me go to wikipedia for the true information. He was a remarkable man, such an impressive interesting story. The fake news wasn't bad but it said he passed at 57 when in fact he passed at 97. He is considered the wealthiest man of all time. He made his fortune in oil and was a philanthropist focusing on improvements in medicine, education and science. He was born into a poor family with a good mother and a shady vagabond of a father who was not home much of the time. The father had 2 children with the housekeeper.

Coffee is on and stay safe
I find myself checking out many things these days for the real truth and then I usually find myself going down the rabbit hole of seeing something else highlighted that "needs" to be checked out.

This is so interesting. I had no idea. It's a big difference, 57 vs. 97. It's amazing that he turned out so well with a less than commendable father.
Everything has to be fact checked now.
