Two years ago, Neil King Jr. did something remarkable.

After a long and successful career as a journalist,

most recently at the Wall Street Journal,

having recently become cancer-free,

at the age of 61, Neil stepped outside his front door

in downtown Washington, D.C.

And he walked north.

Well, a little west, too, and it points east and probably a little bit of south, but mainly

north. One step at a time, Neil walked from Washington, D.C. to New York City. It took him about a month and it gave rise to a

remarkable work of non-fiction telling the story of what he saw in his book, American Ramble.

I loved reading his book, which came out just this spring,

and I highly recommend you obtain a copy for yourself,

whether Hardcover or Kindle E-book, because I believe you'll love it too. I think this

week's podcast will show you why. It's our annual authors in August series. I'm

delighted to kick it off with an American ramble this week only on Rule Breaker Investing. podcast with Motley Full Co-founder David Gardner.

And welcome back to Rule Breaker investing.

Happy August.

Before getting into American Ramble with my guest this week, Neil King Jr.

I just want to mention ahead of time next week on this podcast.

Our second author in August will be Sunny Vanderveck, Sunny the author of the book Selling

Without Selling Out speaking here not about the stock market, but about one's business.

Maybe you are a small business person. maybe you started it yourself, maybe you inherited one a few generations old.
