Do you think an indivdual today can rise from "rags to riches" like Andrew Carneige did? Why or why not?

Yes, I believe an individual can rise from "rag to riches" like Andrew Carneige did. It would be hard work and some people may fail at trying to do this but many can. It all depends on what you're selling, making or what kind of factory or store you're running. It depends on the merchandise and money put in it. Andrew Carneige rised from "rags to riches" through hard work, earning money and working for the right people. He progressed up the ranks of his job and eventually went out on his own and opened his own factory. From then on he rised from "rise to riches". A individual today can still do this, rising up the ranks like Andrew Carneige did and eventually opening up his own factory. I believe if you take the same steps Andrew Carneige did you can rise for rags to riches. Anyone can try this but few would probably succeed. It's a hard task but many people can do it, rising from rags to riches.
