ABSTRACT
Proof can be found among the highly successful entrepreneurs who launch a series of businesses. Even when they can well afford to retire and live the leisurely life many people fantasize about, these entrepreneurs would rather be working on the next big idea. John Robbins took an early retirement at age forty after selling his mortgage finance company, bought a yacht, and golfed five days a week, only to discover that he really wanted to be working. In the process, he established a powerful legacy of enterprises imbued with deep understanding of the mortgage business and a strong sense of integrity; as a titan, he also became a spokesperson for the industry.
