Who was Jhon D Rockefeller?
was born July 8, 1839 on a farm in Richmond, New York. He was the second child of six born to William Avery and Eliza Davison Rockefeller. The family lived modestly, John's father being a "pitch man" charging up to $25.00 for treatments for cancers. His father traveled and was gone for months at time and John's upbringing fell mainly on his mother, who was very religious and disciplined. She taught her children to work, to save and to give to charities. After moving to Moravia and later to Owego, New York, the family moved to Ohio in 1853. They bought a house near Cleveland, in Strongsville, Ohio and John attended Central High School in Cleveland. John left high school in 1855 and took a six-month business course at Folsom Mercantile College. He completed the course in three months and began searching for a job as a bookkeeper or clerk in Cleveland. In 1855, business in Cleveland was adverse and John had trouble finding a job. After six weeks, Hewitt & Tuttle, a small company of produce shippers and commission merchants employed him as an assistant bookkeeper. Rockefeller worked hard and impressed his employers, arranging complicated transportation deals moving freight by railroad, canal and lake boats. He began to trade for his own account and his combination of caution; precision and resolve brought him to the attention of the Cleveland business community.
How was John D Rockefeller put on the defensive by investigative reporting?
It all started deep in the Vatican where Rockefeller would play paint ball. But he was cursed with horrible hearing so he could not hear when someone almost shot him so he would stay there. He tried to fix this so he ended up making the very first hearing aid. This however gave him a lot of problems since he hates generic versions of things and everyone tried making his stuff like that. SO to stop this he went over to Naricanina where he could summon the soul of Housterulia to stop the genarication. But he did the summoning wrong so now he has been on the defensive since he has been fighting the skeleton army of requiem.
