"*What is the best or most worthwhile investment you've made? "The best thing I ever did, besides getting sober 25 years ago, was shelving my restaurant career in 2002, selling my shares in my restaurant, and working for free for a local radio station, magazine, and TV station in an effort to create my own media syllabus. I wanted to create a product with a massive platform, and try to make a difference in the world, and I couldn't do it without becoming a 40-year-old intern, learning everything I needed, and rebooting my career."
