Who are your role models, what values or achievements of theirs make them your role models, and would they be proud of / approve of who you are today (be honest)?
Title says all......................................................................................
Anyone whose achievements I admire would think I am a useless corporate shill.
My role model is myself 10 years from now.
I wasn't like every other kid, you know, who dreams about being an astronaut, I was always more interested in what bark was made out of on a tree. Richard Gere's a real hero of mine. Sting. Sting would be another person who's a hero. The music he's created over the years, I don't really listen to it, but the fact that he's making it, I respect that. I care desperately about what I do. Do I know what product I'm selling? No. Do I know what I'm doing today? No. But I'm here, and I'm gonna give it my best shot.
Cool story, Hansel
Johnny Sins is my hero. Who else could be a plumber, soldier, doctor, electrician, pool guy, waiter, mechanic, dentist, and nurse in a lifetime?

"Man is that being who invented the gas chambers of Auschwitz: however, he is also that being who entered those chamber upright, with the Lord's Prayer or the Shema Yisrael on his lips." - Viktor Frankl
Man's Search for Meaning was an amazing read.
I don't have role models in the traditional sense. I admire people who have certain traits that align with my values.
Here are some people with traits I admire:
Most of my role models are former military guys that were in business school while I was in undergrad. Excellent leaders. Charismatic individuals. Deployed to Iraq / Afghanistan, accomplished their mission set, most got all their soldiers / Marines / sailors / airmen home safely. Most of them are crushing it in finance or running start-ups.
I think they would be.
Mark Cuban and no, he would probably think I’m a bitch for working for someone else
Why Mark Cuban? Most of his success was just dumping an overvalued company before the dot com bubble. He reminds me of Trump a lot, overcompensates so hard by trying to be a cool businessman
Litquidity owner. Imagine just being able to post finance memes all day...
I am not sure about using the term role model but people who I have respected and/or continue to respect include
Bill Gates
Warren Buffett
Benjamin Graham
John Bogle
Barach Obama
Ruth Bader Ginsberg
Chase Coleman, cause it would be sick af to be Chase Coleman
