"Rags to riches"

Before I came to Philly I already knew how important was the American Dream to the US citizens but after my presentation about Walt Disney history I realize that not only Americans feel identified with it, also people from another countries as I explain in my presentation. In addition, yesterday our english teacher explained how the "rags to riches" histories are attach whith the american dream, because the movies, books or cartoons always have a poor character who become rich and famous in a period of time and I realize that all the Disney movies not only became famous for using the idea of a "fish out of water" but also became famous using the "rags to riches" history.

I think that I'm becoming a fan of the Disney history because after my class research I'm obsessed to know and learn about the Disney company as a business and how this person had such a perfect strategy to become who he is nowadays with his movies and themeparks and also how his ideas are always attach to the American and foreign happyness, and quality of life.
