    I am unemployed and desperate to support my family of a husband and three kids. I apply for a janitor's job at a large firm and easily pass an aptitude test.

    The human resources manager tells me, "You will be hired at minimum wage of $5.35 an hour. Let me have your e-mail address so that we can get you in the loop. Our system will automatically e-mail you all the forms and advise you when to start and where report on your first day"

    Taken aback, I protest that I am is poor and has neither a computer nor an e-mail address.

    To this the manager replies, "You must understand that to a company like ours that means that you virtually do not exist. Without an e-mail address you can hardly expect to be employed by a High-tech firm. Good day."

    Stunned, I leave. Not knowing where to turn and having $10 in my wallet, I walk past a farmers' market and see a stand selling 25lb. Crates of beautiful red tomatoes. I buy a crate, carry it to a busy corner and display the tomatoes. In less than 2 hours I sell all the tomatoes and make 100% profit. Repeating the process several times more that day, I end up with almost $100 and arrive home that night with several bags of groceries for my family.

    During the night I decide to repeat the tomato business the next day.

    By the end of the week I am getting up early every day and working into the night. I multiply my profits quickly.

    Early in the second week I acquire a cart to transport several boxes of tomatoes at a time, but before a month is up I sell the cart to buy a broken-down pickup truck.

    At the end of a year I own three old trucks. My two sons have left their neighborhood gangs to help him with the tomato business, my husband is buying the tomatoes, and my daughter is taking night courses at the community college so she can keep books for her.

    By the end of the second year I have a dozen very nice used trucks and employs fifteen previously unemployed people, all selling tomatoes.

    I continue to work hard.

    Time passes and at the end of the fifth year I own a fleet of nice trucks and a warehouse that my husband supervises, plus two tomato farms that the boys manage. The Tomato Company
