McDonald
Do you have a dream? What do you want to do?
Maurice (“Mac”) and Richard McDonald had a dream. They wanted to be movie stars. They went to California from the East coast, but they could not find jobs in the movie. They were very poor, they were disappointed. They had to do something to make money.
They decided to open a restaurant in San Bernardino. They wanted to try something new – a fast-food restaurant. They borrowed money and opened a restaurant. They called the restaurant McDonald’s. Hamburgers, milk shakes, and French fries were on the menu. That’s all. A restaurant with three things on the menu? No one thought it would work, but people loved it. The food was simple and fast. Soon, people waited in line outside the restaurant.
A salesman named Ray Kroc from Chicago could not understand why the restaurant needed so many milk-shake machines. He went to California to see this restaurant. He was amazed. People waited outside the restaurant to get in. He tried the food. It was great, and the restaurant was so clean.
Kroc asked the brothers to open other restaurants like this. The brothers said they made enough money. Kroc told the brothers they could make more money. He could open other McDonald’s like this one. He would give them some money for thee restaurants. The brothers agreed.
It was 1995. Kroc opened two others McDonald’s, but people wanted more. Soon there were hundreds of McDonald’s. The brothers had enough money. They sold McDonald’s to ray Kroc for $2.5 million dollars Kroc became very rich. And the brothers? They were happy with quiet life.
