Rochester, NY
9:50 PM
Boy, it’s been a while since I’ve had to pack and get ready for a trip. I can’t tell you how excited I am to be getting back on the road, even if it’s for a short trip. The past week has been spent trying to put the finishing touches on the rough draft of the entire book (only a few pages to go!) and get my power point ready for Penn State. It’s ready, I’ve gone to Staples for my handouts, and now I have clothes in the dryer and the Olympics on.
I leave out in the AM and have a stop in Williamsport, PA for an interview. It should be an interesting one, as I am talking to the “Father of 401K.” He was the first to create and implement the 401K at his company back in the day. We all know about it now. I look forward to hearing what he has to say about finances but also about his passions, which he told me were his faith and his family.
From there I will drive the hour to Penn State, get set up in a bed and breakfast they have me in, and prepare for my talk. My energy is at a high because of the book writing. I feel so much more knowledgeable on the interviewees and their stories.
It will be hard to go to sleep tonight. My writing schedule keeps me up until 1 or 2 AM, but I need to be up and out early tomorrow. Clean sheets await. Enjoy the week.
