My father. He taught me strong work ethic. He worked his way up from meat packer, to CEO/Owner of a large truck line in his lifetime. He's a kind and funny person, quite the talker, but knows when to shut up and just work his ass off. He helped a lot of other people along the way throughout his life. Taught me the real value of hard work and money, how to earn and save it.

I try to be like him, and it's turning out fairly well. He gave me a better education about the working world than any school ever could.
