Andrew carnegie, known as the King of Steel, established the steel industry in the United States, and in the process, he became one of the richest people in the United States. His success stems partly from his ability to sell products and partly from his expansion policy during the economic recession, when most of his competitors were reducing their investment.

Carnegie believes that individuals should make progress through hard work, but he also strongly feels that the rich should use their wealth to benefit society. He opposes charity. On the contrary, he prefers to provide educational opportunities so that others can help themselves. "He who dies rich dies disgracefully," he often said.

Among his more noteworthy contributions to society, some are named after him, including Carnegie College in Pittsburgh, which has a library, an art museum and a national history museum. He also founded a technical school, which is now part of Carnegie Mellon University. Other charitable donations include the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, which promotes understanding between countries, the Carnegie College in Washington, which funds scientific research, and Carnegie Hall, which provides an art activity center.

Andrew carnegie's generosity affected almost all Americans. He donated more than 5 million US dollars and established 2,500 libraries in small communities all over the country, forming the core of the public library system that we all enjoy today.
