Episode 187– Testimony by Rich A.
Rich grew up in Florida and went on to get a degree in accounting from Clemson University and then obtained a law degree from the University of Florida College of Law.
Things were going very well and one of his friends described him and his work in the following way: I have known Rich for many years. His work and knowledge is excellent. I am an entrepreneur by nature and Rich knows how to get a deal closed. He is honest and integrity is his strength. He has been my business partner and trusted confidant in numerous business arrangements and Rich is a man of integrity and knowledge who could be of advantage to anyone associated with him.
But then things changed when he was arrested for a DUI and there were also charges for possession of cocaine and drug paraphernalia. He was found guilty of misconduct by the Florida State Bar with a short suspension of his law license. Sadly, there were subsequent charges brought against him as his poor choices continued, ultimately leading to him losing his law license.
As you’ll hear in his powerful testimony, Rich has now cleaned up his life and touts how he has combined his skills and personal endeavors in matters of real estate property and business acquisition, along with business development.
He’s grateful to have learned to balance his professional life with his personal, social, and civic lives. Rich touts having realized the profound importance of giving himself in communion and fellowship with others, and the community and society as a whole. He touts having a strong belief in civic and charitable duty. And while admitting that he’s not attained anything near perfection when it comes to balance in his life, he continues to strive for progress, rather than perfection.
Rich has been fortunate to have raised three wonderful daughters, each of whom is marking her course and contributing to what makes this world a better place to live. And those daughters have blessed him with grandchildren, so he’s even more eager to be looking forward to experiencing amazing possibilities with the next generation.
