Sample Book Insights:

#1 I have always been drawn to risk, and I’ve taken it at every point in my life. I was born in 1928 in a railroad town in eastern Oklahoma, and grew up with a family that was hardworking, self-sufficient, and honest.

#2 I had to learn to sit on my bottom, as my grandmother often told me. I had to give back a dollar I had found on the street because my mother, grandmother, and aunt said that I wasn’t supposed to be paid to be honest.

#3 When I was with Phillips Petroleum, I was working with three geologists and a couple of engineers on a joint interest well. I was making $5,000 a year. One of the geologists asked me what I would sign up for if I could lock in a salary right now for the rest of my life. I had a wife and two kids by then, and wanted to ensure that they were comfortable.

#4 I worked for Phillips Petroleum in Oklahoma, and after three years, five months, and twenty-one days, I quit. I was 26 years old, and I had to make a living. I was not going to get rich working for $75 a day. But if I could put enough deals together, I could make a decent living.
