It's an excerpt from a book, as it says at the bottom and I imagine there's also some expectation the reader is generally aware Mark Twain was involved in many unsuccessful business ventures throughout his life. The excerpt provides a bit of context.


Yes, I get that it's an excerpt. But the title misrepresents (in a slightly click-baity way) the article content. That's all I was pointing out.
