Troy is interview by Readers and REEL Folk

My laptop is realtively high end, but the built in video camera is trash. I'm going to Best Buy tomorrow lol!

 

 

Great interview!  I appreciated learning about the history of this place in the creator's own words.  A fortunate intersection of skills benefits us all.

Troy you DO NOT look or sound your age....lol.

Well I drink regularly, try to keep exercise at a bare minimum, sit behind a desk most of the day, and eat plenty of pork and fried foods.

 

Now I have heard that I do not look my age, but I never heard anyone say that I don't "sound" my age. What does that mean?  is it word choice, intonation, what? 


Lol...it means you SOUND the age you LOOK.
You look like  a man in his early 30s and you sound the same.

You don't have the "gravel" in your voice that a lot of men have in their 50s.

But Delano mentioned something about passion in another thread.
Perhaps when a man finds his PASSION and does that which he loves, he finds his fountain of youth.

I always believed the opposite was true ...  doing something you hate will send you to an early grave.  Perhaps the converse is true too.

 

While I never spent much time stressing, doing things that I do not enjoy, I suspect my appearance is more a function of genetics.

I enjoyed the interview. I will have to listen to it again. I hope you are working on fleshing out your organization. The biggest short coming of the Black Business Builders Club was that it was totally run by the founder so with his death, the site didn't continue.

 

One of my biggest failures.
