Growing up around the world


less than 1m read
·Nov 3, 2024

I grew up in New York, New Jersey, Florida. I've lived in California, Ohio, London, Paris. I've lived in so many places. I've moved around a lot. I'm not even a military brat; just for businesses, moving so many different places throughout my lifetime.

Any place you live, as long as you have a good core group of friends, you can enjoy every city. If you don't have a good core group of friends, you're going to hate the city. Even if it's the nicest city in the world, I mean, different cities are going to teach you different things.

If you're in a big city, in New York or in London, you know it's a hustle and bustle. It's really business, business, business all the time. You're out socializing all the time—business lunches, social dinners, whatever. It's always something that has to do with business going around.

If you're in a place like Miami or L.A., it's a little bit more social, a little bit more relaxed. It's a different kind of approach with different people. You know, in the entertainment business, let's say in California, or in shipping, in the legal profession, or tourism business in Miami, finance in New York—every city has its sort of core industry. Those things dictate the kind of people that are focused to be in that kind of environment, and that alone.
