How John D. Rockefeller Became The Richest Person Ever

The name Rockefeller has been synonymous with American wealth for generations now, but how did the Rockefellers get their start? How did John D. Rockefeller go from the son of a con artist to an oil refiner to the wealthiest person in modern history? In this video, we’ll be looking at how Rockefeller made his fortune.

John Davison Rockefeller Sr. was born in 1839 to a large family in Richford, a small town in upstate New York. His mother was a religious woman and his father was a traveling salesman who, according to a biography of Rockefeller, was known to have said, “I cheat my boys every chance I get. I want to make 'em sharp.” Not an easy childhood, perhaps, but a formative one.

When John was young, the family moved to Moravia, NY, then Owego, NY, then finally Strongsville, Ohio, a suburb of Cleveland. As a young man, J.D. Rockefeller showed an early enterprising spirit, selling candy, raising turkeys, and otherwise doing jobs for their neighbors.
