The NYSE, the Importance of a Support Team, and Meet My Dad EP 101
I let the 100th episode slip by with little fanfare and opted to celebrate our 101st episode instead. We recorded this on Father’s Day and today is Bill Johnston’s birthday. What’s the connection? Well, he’s my dad.
He’s one of the most productive people I know, even in retirement. Bill will be quick to let you know that he had a corporate secretary that oversaw his work life. And a wife who held down the entire home front. We talk about why having a support team is mission critical to productivity.
No surprise – we discuss the financial markets and the current economy at length. Bill and I reminisce with some fun stories about the NYSE trading floor back in the day.
We wrap up with the many lessons my dad taught me from the importance of education to integrity and the honor system.
