Yes, I do know where his fortune came from. He was an incredibly successful businessman.

When he took over as CEO at Searle, they were $28 million in the red. When he left 4 year later, they were $128 million in the black. Searle is a pharmaceutical company known for products such as Dramamine, Metamucil, and an early birth control pill.

He left Searle and became Chairman and CEO of General Instruments, where he did an amazing job. General Instruments is a leader in broadband transmissions, distributions, and access control technologies.

After leaving General Instruments, he became Chairman of the Board of Gilead Sciences, which is a huge pharmaceutical company.

Rumsfeld was incredibly successful everywhere he went. He was regarded as a guy who could go into a company and turn things around in a relatively quick time.
