我最近和Tull发生了一点交集，就去读了下Tull的经历。
这个发家的经历实在太传奇，做啥成啥。我的问题是这个真的是白手起家的？还是起家的故事其实是经过包装的。
After college, Tull abandoned plans to become a lawyer and instead went into business, starting a chain of laundromats. Among his innovations were different prices according to demand at different times of day. Tull next went into the field of financing, buying and selling several tax and accounting offices.[7] He later became chief of operations of Tax Services of America.[9] His business was buying units from franchisees of Jackson Hewitt Tax Services rolling up and consolidating operations. People who had established franchised locations often preferred being salaried managers. In 2001, Tull left Interactive Technology Funds to join the Convex Group, an Atlanta-based investment group.[10][11] His firm invested in entertainment, where Tull began to learn the entertainment business. After discussing the potential of private equity with a film executive in 2003, Tull quit Convex, raising $600 million in equity to finance the production of movies under the Legendary Pictures banner.[6]
