I am a very blessed man.

In my view, I’m a trillionaire.

But, I measure my wealth in things far more valuable than money. Here are just a few.

An Amazing Marriage. I’ve been married to my loving wife, best-friend, and life-partner, Rory, for almost 40 years. She’s a saint for putting up with me so long (for those of you who know her, I’m sure you’ll agree).

A Committed Follower of Christ. My faith is my anchor, my inspiration, my peace and my hope. It influences everything I do.

A Wonderful Family. I am blessed with a wonderful extended family of sisters, brothers-in-law, nephews, nieces, and cousins.

A Plethora of Friends. I am grateful for and cherish my friends — from all over the world — they bless me, enrich me, support me, and delight me.

A Best Friend. Mine’s Barkley. He’s my 40-pound, two-feet long, super-sized sausage dog.

A Brilliant Team of Professionals. I could not even begin to name the number of amazing, professional, talented, passionate, and fun individuals I have had the joy of working with over the years. Each and every one is outstanding. If I were to start listing names, I’d need a new site!

A Great Group of Guys to Mentor. I have the incredible opportunity to mentor an ongoing group of young men in their 20’s - 30’s who are trying to figure it all out and build successful and meaningful lives. I’m still surprised they enjoy my company.

An Abundance of Great Life Experiences. My personal and professional life experiences — built over decades and across the globe — that I could never have planned, but magically came my way.

For all of these, I am deeply thankful.
