Hi Alex,
You are getting closer to what I have in mind. I can give you another hint: In addition to the names I listed there were about 500 other people who shared the same thing.

Hi Torsten..
We all knew that ''Napoleon Hill (October 25, 1883–November 8, 1970) was an American author who was one of the earliest producers of the modern genre of personal-success literature. His most famous work, Think and Grow Rich, is one of the best-selling books of all time.''
May we ask you what message you want to convey our readers by this particular post..
Hope you have a deep and meaningful purpose for your answer..
...

Hi Sahid,
What is a 'deep and meaningful purpose'? As for my 'message', I just find it amazing that Napoleon Hill was able to meet and interview so many influential and successful people.
