I asked him whom he chooses to have in his life, given that he can essentially hang out with whomever he wants. He told me, “When you’re 81 years old, you need four or five young mentors. They can help you navigate and understand the twenty-first century. You have to have the willingness to be vulnerable to the way they think. I have four or five of those people that could be my sons, but they are my teachers. I would say to all of those modern elders out there: if you really want to accelerate your growth, get four young dudes and let them be your mentors.”
