I am an inspirational and motivational speaker who shares a message on how to Live Rich! I have been a professional speaker since 1988. In 1983, I read a book that ultimately lead to me becoming a professional speaker. It also changed my life. After being dumped by my first love, I was depressed. All I could think about was that relationship and what could have been. After reading “The Magic of Thinking Big” by Dr. David Swarts, I started taking goal setting seriously. What followed was the best period in my young life. Among those goals, were to become a millionaire by the age of 35. Well, I have achieved ONE of those two! But I am Rich! SO in these pages, I will share with my readers on what it takes to achieve real success.

I believe being successfand being Rich has almost nothing to do with money and everything to do with personal and professional satifaction.

Though a native Floridian, who occasionally pines for the beach life, I have happily adapted to the life in East Tennessee. When I can, I love to mountain bike, water ski, and explore the hills and mountains of one of the most beautiful places in America - the Great Smokey Mountains with my wife and five (that’s not a typo!).

My newest project is identifying a list of the REAL 100 Richest people in the U.S. If you know someone who is rich, please let me know…I would love to meet them and introduce them to my readers.
