Everyone has the luxury of having wealth that can never be spent and achieving financial freedom, but looking at the whole country, how many people can reach this point. But Brazil has such a lucky person, a shrewd and capable father who spent his life creating countless riches, and then died after his success, leaving his son with a rich and invincible legacy. This remarkable father provided a perfect start to his son's life, but did not anticipate the tragic end of his son's life.
This lucky and miserable brother was Jorge Guino, whose father was named Eduardo Guino. Speaking of Jorge 's father, Eduardo, his life is quite legendary, born in the European civilian class, he was a porter at the docks in order to maintain his life when he was young, and sold his labor in exchange for a meager income.
Beneath his ordinary exterior, he had a lofty ambition, he was not willing to live a mediocre life, determined to be a man, and the wave of Brazilian immigrants that rose in France at that time gave him a chance to realize his dreams. He persuaded his family to move to Brazil, relying on his shrewd mind, grasping the shipping business opportunities, grabbing the first bucket of gold in his life, gradually adjusting to the port business, and finally winning the lease right of the port of Zatos, after years of operation, not only built it into Brazil's largest port, but also made himself the richest in Brazil.
Eduardo flourished and became one of the most successful people in Brazil, but there were also some regrets in life, that is, there were too few heirs under his knees, and there was only one son, Jorge Guino, which was also his only child. As the only seedling in the family, he is naturally doted on by his family. Born with a golden spoon, he enjoyed a privileged and prosperous life, but did not develop the ability to control his father's business empire.
Of course, Eduardo knew that his son Jorge was just a brother who would spend money, but this was his only heir, in order to let his son have an inexhaustible wealth in his life, Eduardo was still carefully managing the family business even in his twilight years, and when he died, he left a rich family property of up to $2 billion for his son. You know, more than 80 years ago, the purchasing power of the dollar was far greater than it is today.
Although Jorge is a stupid boy who only knows how to eat, drink and have fun, because of his high inheritance, if he appears there, he will become the focus of the whole audience, and in the Brazilian upper social circle, he will always be the one who has attracted everyone's attention. Because of the wealth of the enemy country, the Guino family not only has a certain influence in the Brazilian political arena, but also deeply concerned by the American political arena, when President Roosevelt first took office, when he visited Brazil, he entered Jorge home and visited Mr. Eduardo the Elder.
Later, after the outbreak of the Pacific War, the United States spent a lot of military money and urgently needed financial support, when President Roosevelt thought of the Guino family in Brazil, although Eduardo had died, but President Roosevelt also dealt with Jorge. At the invitation of President Roosevelt, Jorge came to the United States and became a regular visitor to the White House.
At the same time, under the guidance of Rockefeller, the richest man in the United States, Ruo Re made friends with many American dignitaries and celebrities, and became a member of the top social circle in the United States, and gradually he also had a relationship with the famous Hollywood, in this beautiful movie star like a cloud, Ruo Re finally found his life goal, he wanted to pursue all the actresses.
In order to achieve this goal, Jorge also had his first job as a film reviewer in Hollywood, so that he could get acquainted with more actresses or actresses. Of course, acquaintance is only the beginning, and being able to get close to these actresses is still relying on their own money.
There was once a female film star who wanted a world-famous painting, and Ruo Re could only give him a blank check for his own signature, and finally the actress spent nearly a million dollars to buy this famous painting. Sometimes in order to chase female movie stars, he will also spend a lot of money to invest in movies starring female movie stars, it can be said that in order to soak up the beautiful women he looks at, he can use all methods, just because he has endless money.
But is this legacy really going to last a lifetime? The answer is no, if Reiruo has calculated an account, as long as he spends no more than that amount every day, his family property is enough for him to squander a lifetime, and the family property is still making money for him. In his later years, the company's operation finally encountered difficulties, but he did not know how to survive the crisis.
By the 1980s, the business empire that Eduardo had spent his life building finally collapsed at the hands of his son, and now the port of Sartos, which had started as a home, had changed hands, and the once luxurious life was no longer there, and Jorge at this time even had to live on government welfare. But at this time, Ruo Re had not yet woken up, thinking that his life had reached such a point, only because he had miscalculated the account and squandered the rest of his life in advance.
He lived in this embarrassing state of life for another fifteen years, and time finally made him gradually realize his mistakes, but this late repentance would not change his current situation, and he could only spend his old age in poverty and destitution. Coming to the end of his life, Ruo Re wanted to enjoy the luxury life he had once had before leaving his life, and a few friends pooled their money to let Ruo Re stay in the luxury hotel he used to stay in every day, ending Ruo Re 's last wish.
Summary: Heaven gave Ruo Re a rare good card in the world, but unfortunately he played it poorly, from a very high starting point in life, slowly falling, and finally let him have a regrettable old age, but who is to blame. Everyone's origins are different, and the lives they have walked are also different, but what really affects the development of our lives is our acquired efforts.
