Island Dream Turns Millionaire: Kilgore's Fripp Resort Rise
Jack Kilgore, 40, quit trucking to buy Fripp Island off South Carolina. With under 10,000 from family savings, he helped form Fripp Island Resort Inc and financed a toll bridge through state and private bonds. The island now features a six mile coast, a new inn, an 18 hole golf course and rapid development.
