Interesting fact about Mr. Perot. We all know he was a man small in size.

He grew up in a poor family. When he was a youngster, he put his size to use for him.

He began buying and training ponies for children. Ponies are a challenge for most horsemen because men are generally too large to properly train an animal who will be entrusted with the life of a child.

He bought ponies, trained them and sold them. He made a really good reputation for himself and made good money, especially for the times. Families would hire him to train ponies they bought for their children and he always had a long waiting list.

It's hard work and it takes courage and gumption. And that's how he started his entrepreneur life.
