I remember sitting down at our dinner table for our celebration and my dad telling me, “Remember kid, this is not enough. Nothing is ever enough or good enough for my family. I will buy and own half the planet if need be, just for my family.” At that time, I was in awe of him, at what he said. He was my hero.
