The GENERATIONS MADE IN AMERICA Podcast is a platform for the histories of America's multi-generation family businesses. These histories are part of America's history. They are filled with inspiring life and business lessons that are proof that the American Dream is alive. Their stories of how they started are priceless for others, especially entrepreneurs, those employed but unfulfilled, unemployed, students about to enter the workforce, and immigrants new to America. Knowledge that is there for the taking to gain valuable insights. If they can do it others can too!
E132: One's Drive To Bring A Dream To Life Can Be Powerful. In 1840 An 18 Y.O. Immigrated To America & Opened His Restaurant Which Today Is The Oldest Continuously Family-Run In The US! Bravo!
Before looking at the challenges in business today with a heavy heart, keep in mind that businesses that existed 164 years ago and are still thriving all experienced and survived the Civil War, two World Wars, Prohibition, the Great Depression, and at least 16 recessions! Add to these, massive fires to manufacturing plants which were not uncommon due to being constructed with lumber. Do not give up!

E130: Starting Small Can Be Key To Success As Seen In America’s Family Businesses’ Histories. This Farm Started With Just 2 Cows & 80 Yrs. Later Is A Thriving Fifth Generation Family Business!
Here are two inspiring quotes that can be inspirational as one comes to terms with their desire to have their own business.
Albert Einstein famously said, "Imagination is more important than knowledge. Knowledge is limited. Imagination encircles the world."
As Charles Kettering once noted, the opportunities of man are limited only by his imagination. But so few have imagination that there are ten thousand fiddlers to one The composer.
