I think my greatest accomplishment has been created my own business. I've been able to develop a new energy source, without so much pollution. I made all that by myself, and I`m very pride!!

To achieve this goal has changed me dramatically, because before I was an insensitive man, but nowadays I developed a more worker person, and I hope people around me all  they would be too.

All my life I've managed to get a lot of money, and trough my work, and my leadership I achieved this. Recently I was laureated with the Springfield pride award, because I'm an inspiration for all people.

There are three things I'd like to have achieved by the next 30 years. First, I'd like to have made a new energy source most powerful, regardless their environmental impact. Second: I hope I'll have seen my people to work for free. An finally, I'll have finished my memories titled "How to be successful(=wealthy)".
