Summary

We all want our kids to have good character, but we don’t always consider how crucial character

is to our kids’ future success. In today’s interview, former multi-billion-dollar investment

manager, Dennis Trittin, helps us connect the dots and find even more motivation for raising kids

of character.

After over 30 years managing investments and studying successful leaders all over the world,

Dennis shifted his focus to sharing what he had learned with the next generation. Writing books

and speaking to students, parents, and educators, Dennis is passionate about inspiring the next

generation to embrace the kind of character that will help them get jobs, (and not get fired from

them!) nurture healthy relationships, and live happy, fulfilling lives. Today we draw from his

book, What I Wish I Knew at 18: Life Lessons for the Road Ahead.
