A Real Entrepreneur Is Somebody Who Has No Safety Net Underneath Them.

In The Large Buy Out Space, Which Is Where We (kohlberg Kravis Roberts) Focus Our Efforts, There Are Relatively Few Firms With The Capital, Experience, Infrastructure And Networks To Compete Effectively With The Large Complex Companies That We Seek To Acquire.

We've Got A Portfolio Of Companies That Range All The Way From Hotels To Television Stations And Cable Tv Companies, Oil And Gas, Consumer Products, And Industrial Products. If There's Anything That I Want To Know More About, I Have The Opportunity. It's Right In Our Portfolio. I Can Spend Time At The Factory Or With The Manangement And Learn As Much As I Want. You Can't Get Bored Doing That.
