I just finished reading the book titled "OIL MAN",the story of Frank Phillips the founder of Phillips Petroleum Co.Frank got his start in Creston Iowa where he was a barber,he owned several shops before going to Oklahoma and eventually striking it rich.He was a salty but generous old cuss,wish he would have been around to hear the remark of our former President when he said "You didn't build that business".I suspect there would have been a rapid response after reading what this guy went through,and many others like him,including Bill Skelly, Marland etc.An excellent read.
