From $1 to $1 trillion: The Full History of the Standard Oil Empire
Have you ever heard the expression “He who works all day, has no time to make money!”? Sounds like nonsense, right? Meanwhile, these words belong to the first-ever dollar billionaire and business shark of the oil market in the U.S.! It is not about assembling some Macintosh or Apple in a garage. Sorry, Steve. It's all about oil.
Stand in awe! Today, we are going to tell you about John Davison Rockefeller! By the way, don't mistake him for his son, John Rockefeller, Jr. It seems that the parents lacked imagination, and now it’s up to us to deal with it!
Let's just forget about the Masons and world conspiracies. You've surely already considered that! Yes? Give it a rest, man, it's not serious. We' re going to discuss Only business, so to speak.
And when it came to business, this guy was rea...

How Rockefeller Built His Trillion Dollar Oil Empire
📨 Follow Business Casual on Substack ➡️ https://businesscasualhq.substack.com
John D. Rockefeller, the world’s first billionaire and one of the richest figures in history, built his empire, Standard Oil, through ruthless tactics. Dominating industries, crushing competitors, bribing officials, and treating business as warfare, Rockefeller amassed unprecedented wealth and power. His career was marked by fierce rivalries, including clashes with Andrew Carnegie and U.S. Presidents. Born into poverty in 1839, Rockefeller rose to incredible heights, exemplifying both ambition's potential and greed's darker side. Standard Oil's dominance and strategic investments made him the wealthiest man of his time, with his fortune growing even after the company's breakup as stock prices soared. His story is...

Theodore Roosevelt is famous for many things, but we tend to focus more on his foreign policy and his establishment of the natural parks. Not this series. We're going to take a look at how Teddy smashed up one of the biggest trusts America had ever seen: Standard Oil. But first, we have to lay out the groundwork. Who was John D Rockerfeller? What did Standard Oil do exactly that was so bad? And how did Ida Tarbell crack the story of a century?

How He Built The Biggest Oil Company In The World!
ExxonMobil is a colossus of the energy industry. The company traces its roots back to the audacious ambition of John D. Rockefeller in the late 19th century, who saw a huge opportunity where others only saw chaos and uncertainty, and went on to build the biggest oil company in the world. From its controversial birth amid the chaotic early oil market, ExxonMobil has risen to become a global behemoth. Its beginnings forced the US government to pass a law against trusts as powerful as the one it was born from, and its triumphs and scandals shaped the world's reliance on fossil fuels.

How Big Oil Conquered the World
#Oil #Money #documentary #documentaries #finance #trading
STORYLINE
Our reliance on oil is only growing, and our unabated demand continues to bulk the pockets of the energy companies in the process. There are few regions of the globe that remain untouched by this powerful industry, and fewer lives that aren't affected by its dealings. Produced by the always provocative Corbett Report, How Big Oil Conquered the World skillfully traces the nefarious origins and evolution of this energy behemoth.
The film sheds light on aspects of the oil industry that have remained largely obscured by official historical records. For many of us, John D. Rockefeller comes to mind when we reflect on the moment when Big Oil first became big business. But the beginnings our ...

This is the story of how Standard Oil, a United States oil company, became the start of some of the largest companies in the world today. The companies that grew from Standard Oil currently have a combined market cap of over $950 Billion.
Standard Oil's history goes back to 1863, When John D. Rockefeller and two other businessmen started an oil refining business in Cleveland, Ohio. However, it wasn't until 1870 that the famous "Standard Oil Company & Trust” (referred to as Standard Oil) was formed. In the trust agreement, companies could be purchased, created, dissolved, or merged at the will of the trustees. Throughout the late 1800s, business began to boom for St...

THE STORY OF JOHN D ROCKEFELLER - The business magnate and richest man in the world (and the world’s first billionaire). There was a time when anyone would tremble upon hearing the name John D. Rockefeller. Not only was he the world’s first billionaire, he’s one of the richest people in history. His empire - Standard Oil - became the most dominant monopoly in the world by brutally crushing competitors, taking control of multiple industries, bribing the government into submission, and treating business as if it was war. Because of his ruthless business practices and secretive deals, Rockefeller made many enemies. His career is filled with bitter rivalries like with Andrew Carnegie, and even ferocious battles against US Presidents. But, before he was the titan of the oil industry, Rockefeller was at the very bottom of society. His story is one of only a handful of cases where someone manages to rise from the depths of poverty, to the absolute peak of wealth and power. Rockefeller’s story is at times inspiring, and at times… chilling. It’s an example of what happens when greed and ambition go completely unchecked. This Rockefeller documentary shows the insane true story of John D Rockefeller, the history of Standard Oil and one of the craziest rags to riches stories. At times it’s an inspiring business story with lessons for entrepreneurs, at other times it’s a dark business story showing the worst of corporate greed. And after crushing his competition, through a series of strategic investments Rockefeller became the richest person in the world (even surpassing Andrew Carnegie). Adjusting for inflation, he is one of the richest self made men in history. And when his business empire got split up and he got given shares in other companies, he became even richer as their stock price soared on the stock market. But before all that wealth, let me take you back to 1839, where a young John D. Rockefeller is born into poverty…

ExxonMobil is a colossus of the energy industry. The company traces its roots back to the audacious ambition of John D. Rockefeller in the late 19th century, who saw a huge opportunity where others only saw chaos and uncertainty, and went on to build the biggest oil company in the world. From its controversial birth amid the chaotic early oil market, ExxonMobil has risen to become a global behemoth.

ExxonMobil is a colossus of the energy industry. The company traces its roots back to the audacious ambition of John D. Rockefeller in the late 19th century, who saw a huge opportunity where others only saw chaos and uncertainty, and went on to build the biggest oil company in the world. From its controversial birth amid the chaotic early oil market, ExxonMobil has risen to become a global behemoth. Its beginnings forced the US government to pass a law against trusts as powerful as the one it was born from, and its triumphs and scandals shaped the world's reliance on fossil fuels.

How Big Oil Conquered the World
#Oil #Money #documentary #documentaries #finance #trading
STORYLINE
Our reliance on oil is only growing, and our unabated demand continues to bulk the pockets of the energy companies in the process. There are few regions of the globe that remain untouched by this powerful industry, and fewer lives that aren't affected by its dealings. Produced by the always provocative Corbett Report, How Big Oil Conquered the World skillfully traces the nefarious origins and evolution of this energy behemoth.
The film sheds light on aspects of the oil industry that have remained largely obscured by official historical records. For many of us, John D. Rockefeller comes to mind when we reflect on the moment when Big Oil first became big business. But the beginnings our global captivation with this precious source of energy really began with his father William, a man who gained notoriety for his illicit romantic affairs and tenacious gifts as a snake oil salesman. The industry as it exists today - and the general demeanor of the world it has cultivated - is a direct reflection of his slithery personality.
The documentary does not allow the son John escape from intense scrutiny, however. The filmmakers reveal the oft-told tale of how his company Standard Oil used merciless bribery and strong arm tactics to become a worldwide superpower. But in doing so, they deliver a series of surprising and altogether horrific anecdotes. According to the facts presented in the film, even the world's most revered philanthropic interests haven't been immune to the Rockefellers' devious touch. These pursuits have long allowed the richest elites powerful sway over the masses, and the ability to craft a world and a workforce that bends to their needs.
What's past is prologue. How Big Oil Conquered the World recounts the deeply checkered history of the oil industry to form a context for the even more troubling future that awaits an unsuspecting public. In these modern times, they have their fingers in nearly every conceivable pie of influence - from pharmaceuticals to green technologies to education. The scourge of rampant greed, and the continuing emergence of global monopolies, empower these companies with enough leverage to control every facet of our lives, and to make sheep of us all.

This is the story of how Standard Oil, a United States oil company, became the start of some of the largest companies in the world today. The companies that grew from Standard Oil currently have a combined market cap of over $950 Billion.
Standard Oil's history goes back to 1863, When John D. Rockefeller and two other businessmen started an oil refining business in Cleveland, Ohio. However, it wasn't until 1870 that the famous "Standard Oil Company & Trust” (referred to as Standard Oil) was formed. In the trust agreement, companies could be purchased, created, dissolved, or merged at the will of the trustees. Throughout the late 1800s, business began to boom for Standard Oil. By eliminating competitors, merging with other companies, and friendly railroad rebates, Standard oil gained control of 91% of US oil production and 85% of final sales. By the 1900s, the US government had become concerned with Standard Oil's monopolistic business practices and began an investigation into them. In 1906 the United States government brought a lawsuit against Standard Oil for violating the Sherman antitrust act. After several years of fighting, the courts ruled in favor of the US government. The ruling ordered Standard Oil to break into 34 individual companies. Seven large parts of Standard Oil kept "Standard Oil" in their name. These companies were Standard Oil of Kentucky, Standard Oil of California, Standard Oil of New York, Standard Oil of New Jersey, Standard Oil of Indiana, The Standard Oil company (Ohio), and The Ohio Oil Company.
These companies were the major building blocks of some of the largest Oil and Gas companies today. Standard Oil of California acquired Standard Oil of Kentucky, Texaco, and Unocal to become the Chevron Corporation. Standard Oil of New York merged with another Standard Oil company called Vacuum Oil, eventually renamed Mobil. Standard Oil of New Jersey acquired the Humble Oil Company and underwent a name change to Exxon. The two former Standard companies ultimately merged to form ExxonMobil. Standard Oil of Indiana absorbed Standard Oil of Nebraska and Standard Oil of Kansas and was renamed Amoco Corporation. Amoco would later merge with British Petroleum Company plc to become BP Amoco plc, later shortened to BP. BP also acquired The Standard Oil Company (Ohio). The Ohio oil company changed its name to Marathon Oil in 1930 and spun off Marathon Petroleum in 2011.
