R.J. Corman estate worth $270 million
Not to bad for a man who had to beg and borrow money. He was a rerentless business man with an idea he knew would work. Well done and God Bless the family, he will be missed.
Since the judge did not order the documents sealed, then she should have ordered that every CFO, CEO, COO and the other bigwigs must read and understand this man’s credo. He joins the likes of Warren Buffett, Bill Gates and some others who know how to deal with their wealth. May he rest in peace.
This is a great example of what this country’s opportunity offers for those willing to work hard! From a single backhoe to what we know as R.J. Corman!
An honorable man!
His name is frequently emblazoned on freights passing through Louisville. Except when he ran specials to Derbies or we took the dinner train, we really never knew who he was. His entrepreneurship will be remembered as an example of what one man is capable of doing.
