Скачать или смотреть FedEx Was Almost a Failed School Project

In 1965, Fred Smith turned a “C” grade paper into a global shipping empire.

His idea? Overnight delivery using dedicated planes.

The professor wasn’t impressed—but Fred didn’t give up.

After serving in Vietnam, he launched FedEx with his own inheritance. And when the company was nearly bankrupt? He flew to Vegas, gambled at a blackjack table… and won enough to fuel the planes one more week.

That bet gave FedEx just enough time to survive.

Today, it’s a global giant with over 500,000 employees.

Serendipity? Hustle? Maybe both.
