My daughter learned at her grandpa's funeral that he was a Native American. "Wait? So I'm part Indian, dad?" Now she walks around singing "I'm an Indian princess!" So much to be proud of this week. My wife held strong and took charge writing her dad's obituary,...

Two weeks ago I was in this room. Those walking by the glass hallway knew everyone in there did at least a million last year... some well into 8 figures. But what I saw from inside the glass had little to do with financial success. I saw givers. We each stood up and...
