This Homeless Man Created Domino's With His Last $15. How He Did It

This is the incredible story of Tom Monaghan, the innovative entrepreneur who was brought up in an orphanage, had anything but a stellar school career, and at one point even ended up being homeless. But yet, he still managed to turn a single floundering pizza parlor into one of the world’s largest pizza chains. I am sure you will feel inspired!
If you are interested in reading more about Tom and his unusual Domino’s story, then check out his autobiographical book Pizza Tiger. It was written in 1986 and is currently out of print, but it is still very cheap on the second-hand market. Maybe you’ll even get your hands on an autographed copy!

I worked at the Dominos on Liberty in Ann Arbor in the 70s and folded thousands of those pizza boxes!! It is a reliable product not gourmet perfect for college students and good price point. I encourage all the kids in our family to work at Dominos it's a great job and one of my nephew's is a manager for Dominos now.

Unbelievably OUTSTANDING.

He had some guts to force people to pay. The Florida university should have pizza as a mascot.

Try and show the Traditional Latin mass in the video which is more authentic for the time. Best wishes for your future videos. I find your videos both realistic and inspirational.

Farm Pizza, Vicarage Farm Road, Heston, Hounslow UK. Is the absolute best Pizza I have ever had. & in 2023 14” thin base £8 collection is the best deal also. They do deliver but it’s worth going to collect it. You phone max 20 mins you collect it Domino’s is way too salty! Pizza Hut - what happened to the Super Supreme?

[@anon1muz726]

As dominos employee, I can assure you pizza hut is no longer #1

Pizza box modeled after the marksman badge in the marines

재밌어요~

[@adamdavis2760]

They may be one of the biggest pizza chains in the US but they are as bland as they are big. While a lot of their sandwiches are good and their wings are amazing the pizza is almost tasteless. as well as one of the most expensive to get food from...For me if you are going to overpay for pizza its Pizza hut for me....heavy buttery crust that actually has a taste and stuffed crust? winner winner . That being said nothing beats a good mom-and-pop pizza shop

[@altcoin5631]

[@deanwilliam459]

You left out the boycott of Dominoes by the GLB community. When he sided with the KKK.

[@alexandruraicu2307]

One of the worst pizza ever

[@soulgeistsearch]

Making it more ultra-process and with the cheapest ingredients .... thanks ... but NO THANKS ...
