We have heard the word luck many times. We have heard many people lament that he is lucky and I am not lucky. This is how the historical hero we are about to meet explains fortune. "Luck is a dividend of sweat. The more you sweat, the luckier you get". The more you sweat, the more luck you will get. We are about to learn about someone who has beautifully told and lived the truth that hard work and the sweat shed for it determines our rise.

He started a business at the age of 52 when many are thinking of retirement and amassed a fortune of US$ 500 million in the next 30 years. Most people may not know his name but the name of the business or company he started will make even a three-year-old child giggle. Yes, McDonald's is the name that comes to our mind when we think of hamburgers, french fries and milkshakes. Founded in 1955, the company has grown to over 30,000 restaurants in 120 countries. How was the restaurant revolution that changed the eating habits of billions possible? Come Mr. who gave the world the golden curves of 'M'. Let's take a look at the life of Ray Krag.

Raymond Albert Kragg was born on October 5, 1902 in Chicago. Not very academically inclined, he dropped out without completing his higher education. He started doing every job to earn money. During the First World War he worked for a time as an ambulance driver on a charitable basis. He was a musician in a band for a while. He had a special interest in selling goods. So he started working as a sales agent. Initially, Lilly sold paper cups and plates for the Sulit Cup Company. Then he started selling milkshake machines. He traveled across America selling milkshake machines. It was after almost 30 years in the sales industry that the idea of ​​opening a restaurant came to him.

Two brothers named "Dick" McDonald and "Mac" McDonald ran a hamburger restaurant in San Bernardino, California. In 1954, the brothers purchased eight milkshake machines from Ray Kroc. Wondering why they needed so many machines, Ray Kragg visited the brothers' restaurant. He saw people queuing up to buy food. He realized that the brothers needed all these machines to meet the demand. He was very impressed by the cleanliness and simplicity of the restaurant, the reasonable price of the food and the way in which the food was prepared quickly without much waiting time.
