To Larry Ellison, to whom this book is dedicated. I am forever grateful for your inspiration. Anything is possible, but it takes more than dreams—it takes work—hard work. One of my favorite Larry Ellison quotes is, “I had all the disadvantages necessary for success.” Thank you, Larry. Your friendship and example mean the world. To learn more about Larry Ellison, read The Billionaire and the Mechanic by Julian Guthrie.
