Autobiografía de Andrew Carnegie (Traducido)

By: Andrew Carnagie

Andrew Carnegie era un inmigrante, un chico pobre que trabajaba en una fábrica de algodón, un hombre que amasó una gran fortuna como barón del acero y luego se convirtió en uno de los filántropos más generosos e influyentes que el mundo ha conocido. Su célebre sentencia, según la cual quien muere rico muere en desgracia, ha inspirado a filántropos y empresas filantrópicas durante generaciones. Durante su vida, puso en práctica sus ideas creando una familia de organizaciones que siguen trabajando para mejorar la condición humana, promover la paz internacional, fortalecer la democracia y crear un progreso social que beneficie a hombres, mujeres y niños en los Estados Unidos y en todo el mundo.Aquí, en sus propias palabras, el Sr. Carnegie cuenta la dramática historia de su vida y su carrera, esbozando los principios por los que vivió y que hoy sirven como pilares de la filantropía moderna.

The Autobiography of Andrew Carnegie and the Gospel of Wealth

By: Andrew Carnegie

From his humble beginnings as a Scottish immigrant to his ascension to wealth and power as a 'captain of industry, ' Andrew Carnegie embodied the American 'rags to riches' dream. Alive in the time of the Civil War, Carnegie was the epitome of a self-made man, first working his way up in a telegraph company and then making astute investments in the railroad industry. Through hard work, perseverance, and an earnest desire to develop himself in his education, culture, and personal economy, Carnegie finally made his considerable fortune in steel. What is perhaps most remarkable about this historical figure, however, was his overwhelmingly generous practice of philanthropy in his later life. In his essay "The Gospel of Wealth," Carnegie relates his ideas on the distribution of the rich's wealth to the poor in a responsible capitalistic society. In setting an example of his own beliefs, Carnegie gave away millions of dollars for the public good, demonstrating his own willingness to promote human welfare and the betterment of man

The Gospel of Wealth and the Autobiography of Andrew Carnegie

By: Andrew Carnegie

Andrew Carnegie was a Scottish-American industrialist, business magnate, and philanthropist. He led the expansion of the American steel industry in the late 19th century. He later became a leading philanthropist in the United States and in the British Empire. Carnegie was born in Scotland, and emigrated to the United States with his parents in 1848. He first worked as a telegrapher, and by the 1860s had investments in railroads, railroad sleeping cars, bridges, and oil derricks. He later built Pittsburgh's Carnegie Steel Company, sold to J. P. Morgan in 1901 for $480 million, which became the U.S. Steel Corporation. After selling Carnegie Steel, he surpassed John D. Rockefeller as the richest American for the next couple of years. His 1889 article proclaiming "The Gospel of Wealth" called on the rich to use their wealth to improve society, and stimulated a wave of philanthropy. Carnegie devoted the remainder of his life to large-scale philanthropy.

The Classic Autobiography of Andrew Carnegie with the Gospel of Wealth

By: Andrew Carnegie

The Classic Autobiography of Andrew Carnegie - Andrew Carnegie was an industrialist, business magnate, and philanthropist. This brilliant Scottish-American businessman led the expansion of the American steel industry in the late 19th century. Carnegie is one of the richest people in history. - "The great question now was, what could be found for me to do. I had just completed my thirteenth year, and I fairly panted to get to work that I might help the family to a start in the new land. The prospect of want had become to me a frightful nightmare. My thoughts at this period centered in the determination that we should make and save enough of money to produce three hundred dollars a year-twenty-five dollars monthly, which I figured was the sum required to keep us without being dependent upon others. Every necessary thing was very cheap in those days." - "And that is how in 1850 I got my first real start in life. From the dark cellar running a steam-engine at two dollars a week, begrimed with coal dirt, without a trace of the elevating influences of life, I was lifted into paradise, yes, heaven, as it seemed to me, with newspapers, pens, pencils, and sunshine about me. There was scarcely a minute in which I could not learn something or find out how much there was to learn and how little I knew. I felt that my foot was upon the ladder and that I was bound to climb. I had only one fear, and that was that I could not learn quickly enough ...
