Jim Fried welcomes students that deserve special recognition on this feel good episode! The Silver Knight Awards is the most prestigious community service scholarship offered in South Florida. Competitors must initiate and execute a project benefitting the community, their GPA must be stellar, and after graduating, underclassmen typically continue the work that they have initiated.
Jim will hear stories of three Silver Knight students, Owen Reynolds, Nina Paneque, and Kevin Amézaga, dedicated to serving the community while maintaining academic excellence.
Then, FREEBIRD Real Estate lands in the studio to give a bird's eye view of the momentum the Fort Lauderdale market is seeing. Join us to hear from FREEBIRD founders Don & Jennifer Ginsburg on how their lifestyle approach to real estate has helped them close countless deals in the Fort Lauderdale area- in other words, "HOW you live should lead to WHERE you live!"
