"My dad owned a watch factory. He wasn’t a ‘play catch’ kind of dad, and was never around too much. But I think I learned a lot just by watching him."

“What’s something you learned?”

“He had unlimited patience. He stayed calm no matter what. When the switch was made to quartz movement, mechanical watches took a big hit, and he lost his factory. All his investors pulled out and he lost millions. He went to work for an old friend, and we had to move from Central Park South to Queens. But I never knew that we’d been rich until I was much older. Even when he lost all that money, his demeanor never changed.”
