Built, Not Born: The Self-Made 1%

What do Milton Hershey, Oprah Winfrey, and Howard Schultz have in common? They didn’t inherit wealth—they built it. This episode explores the grit, vision, and relentless drive behind self-made icons who rose from poverty to the top 1%. Host Eric Elkins discusses how rejection, passion, and learning from failure fuel transformation, and why being a “one percenter” is about more than just money—it’s about purpose and perseverance.   Call 678-921-5497 or visit DoubleELLC.com to schedule a complimentary consultation with the team at Double E.
