The CEO's parents came over to America -- through Ellis Island -- after they lost all they had in WWII. My parents came over to build a better life for their children. None of the stories I've read here should come as a surprise, especially to me. It never ceases to amaze me, though.
God bless America!

There is so much oppurtunity here. We came here just 10years ago, with a starting family income of $35k. Rough times really do make you appreciate things in life. Its amazing how hard work of a father (and a Kellog MBA
) can change many things. There is NO limit to what can be achieved here. Its just incredible. Those of us, whose parents brought us to this country must really be grateful for what they have given us.
