I’ve had the pleasure of hanging out and going on bike rides with Dr. Tom. This interview barely scratches the surface on how awesome he is. I’m proud to call him a friend!!

Kudos to Eliot and Dr. Tom for a superb interview.
If they’re all even half as good as this one, we in for a treat.

Great place to start, Tom is not only a high achieving individual with an enviable hobby(s) but has a great family and is a friend to anyone here who has reached out for advice or just an ear, great man and a credit to this board!
Elliot, nice write up, I like your writing style and as I remember your profession being the law I'm curious about this endeavor and what you like about it the most?

Tipping my hat to you Tom.
Your focus and drive is an inspiration to all of us who started with only a dream and lint in their pockets. What I’ve noticed about you Tom is the fact that their is only one audience your trying to impress, and that’s your family. From the brief moment I met you I read two things, not from conversations but from your character and demeanor. Your wife is your queen and you would do anything for her which is becoming a rare trait. The respect your kids show you, especially from your son which I had the pleasure speaking to. I’ve emulated you with the Daytona. Seeing those pictures I told myself, whatever it is on that Platona that rubbed off on you, I wanted that energy too. (My wife loves it more than me and wears it proudly everyday) Now I’m trying to emulate how you treat and respect your family, which I now understand creates ever lasting love and happiness. Once again, my best to you Tom. People like you inspire me to make myself a better person. |

Each will contain questions specific only the the member. However, there will be over lap questions from interview to interview just based on the subject of Rolex. The differences in answers to similar questions should be interesting (at least it is to me).
