    The fact that Carnegie doesn't look like one of the richest people in the world is why he was able to become so rich. He focused on his work, not on his social standing. He concentrated on constantly having an advantage over all of the competition.

    Date in lower right is May 3, 1912. NYT has a May 3, 1912 article: query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=9B04EFDD153CE633A... COMMERCE CHAMBER HOST TO THE FRENCH; Distinguished Visitors Piloted Through Wall Street After Reception Luncheon May 3, 1912, Friday. To quote in part: 'At the Chamber of Commerce the monthly meeting was practically devoted to welcoming the Frenchmen. They were met by a score of prominent New-Yorkers, representative of finance, letters and public life. Andrew Carnegie sat next to Viscount de Chambrun. Near by were Joseph H. Choate, Chauncey M. Depew and Jacob H. Schiff. J.P. Morgan, Jr., Judge Elbert H. Gary, Admiral Peary and ex-Mayor Seth Low were on the opposite side of the rostrum. ... The members of the French delegation present were Gabriel Hanotaux, Viscount de Chambrun, Baron d'Estournelles de Constant, Gen. Lebon, Cound de Rochambeau, the Duc de Choisel, Louis Bleriot, Mm. Rene Bazin, Louis Barthou, Fernand Cormon, Leon Barthou, Girard, Dal Piaz, Gabriel Louis Jaray, and Gignoux.' The meeting began with memorial resolutions for the four members of the Chamber of Commerce who died on the Titanic.

    note how short carnegie was. he hated having his photo standing in positions where one could see this. (I base this on his biography by david nasaw (amaon link.)
