"...What
luck your son has! He's made lots of money; he's shot straight to
the top," a friend once told him, not without a hint of envy.
"In my son's home, we refer to luck as work," answered
the mother, "because he is up by six a.m. and finishes at midnight."
The
person of whom they spoke was Don Juan Montemayor Martínez,
entrepreneur and founder of Productos Laminados de Monterrey,
S. A. de C.V.
At
14 years old, he began to work as a helper in Domingo Brandi's tin
shop.
"He
was a very noble boss and fair when it came to pricing," Don
Juan remembers, "The profits were always fair."
