Because no state or religion should control love, we launched a platform where anyone around the globe can get married #marriageunblocked #LGBTQ #PrideMonth

 

*Just like the above tweet, I agree with tennis legend Bjorn Borg – that you should be able to marry who you love. What are your thoughts on this?

MONEY

Eli Broad is the only person to create two Fortune 500 businesses in different industries.

“Someone once told me I’m a sore winner, and they’re right. I rarely take more than a moment to enjoy a success before I’m moving on and looking for the next challenge.”

*Never settle, keep moving. Think about your most recent success – now look for the next challenge.

ENTERTAINMENT

*If this movie doesn’t motivate you to improve your mind, body, and soul – it may be time to refocus. Watch Giamatti get robbed of an Oscar for best supporting actor.

FOOD

I was born in Northwestern Pennsylvania and lived in a trailer park. I was raised by very conservative and religious (Wesleyan Methodist) parents. By some miracle I graduated college and moved to Florida. I have been a public school teacher since 1995. I have 7 years until I can retire. I was married in 1999 and divorced in 2001. I remarried in 2017 to Kate - 21 years my junior. Some of my life experiences as a 46-year-old, white American male, will come through in my writing, but the majority of this daily journey will be dedicated to improving myself, and hopefully you as well.
