Francisco began working on the sly as a teenager in order to learn all he could about business. While still a student at /PatrickHenryUniversity?, he began working at a copper foundry, and investing in the stock market. By the time he was 20 he had made enough to purchase the foundary. He began working for /DAnconiaCopper? as assistant superintendent of a mine in Montana, but was quickly promoted to head of the /NewYork? office. He took over D'Anconia Copper at age 23, after the death of his father.
When he was 26, Francisco secretly joined the /Strikers? and began to slowly destroy the D'Anconia empire so the /Looters? could not get it. He adopted the persona of a worthless playboy, by which he is known to the world, as an effective cover.
