The Real women who help their husbands
they help themselves
The Mercedes Benz brands represents a legacy of its founder, Karl Benz. The near genius Mechanical Engineer was born in Germany. After graduating from university, he started a mechanical engineering shop where he would invent the first ever three wheel car that was internally powered by use of gasoline.
Largely uncredited in Benz's mercurial success was his wife. Benz opened the factory with a friend and procured a loan together, unknown to him, the friend was like the modern day Pwagus, who escaped with most money, leaving Benz behind to be auctioned.
Benz was auctioned shortly after marrying and paying dowry. In her wisdom, the wife went back for the dowry. Her father did not oppose. But the wife wasn't as dumb too, rather than give Benz the money, she invested in Benz factory and acquired stocks. Her injection to the company gave Benz a new lifeline.
That officially marked the start of Mercedes Benz. Karl Benz invented the first ever internally powered car, but it was his wife, with kiherehere, who drove it first. Benz had went to fix some mechanical issues in the factory, when the wife put his two sons on the three wheel car and drove it for over 60 miles. Before that, Benz wasn't sure his invention would travel that far.
As she drove to meet her relatives 60 miles away, she lost control akaingia kichaka, after pulling the three wheel vehicle out, she passed over a shoe cobbler, and advised him to fix a heavy leather to the wheel to prevent the quick rotation of the wheel. That was the first invention of break pads, which she patented.
It was a great marriage. As Benz demonstrated his ingenuity in the factory with groundbreaking inventions, it is Bertha who pioneered the marketing. Their car brand still carries a mark of prestige globally.
