What was your greatest accomplishment? I consider my greatest accomplishment to be Standard Oil. Through hardwork and determination, I was proven to be the without peer in the oil business and rivaled only by a few select men. How do you view your rival and competitor, Andrew Carnegie? He is a great businessman and a long time rival. While we we did not hate each other, we have never been personal friends How do you view the poor? I view the poor as less than me. While they do have value as human beings, their unwillingness to work hard and try has condemned them to lives of squalor. Through my charities, I have tried to help them out. Hopefully they will take the opportunities afforded to them and rise to riches.
