Hey Steve, I love your office! Could you show me around?

Sure! What would you like to see?

I guess the pictures. Cool, let's do that.

Well, let's see. Starting from Piers to switch with Ronald Reagan. This is when I was about, I don't know, 26 or 27 years old. It's in the White House.

Here, this is my delivery of a Boeing, which was a completely brand new airplane with a complete shell. It had no interior, right? That's what an airplane looks like when it's delivered new.

This is a certificate of naturalization when I became a UK Citizen. And here, I got a list of all kinds of books that I really like, mostly around entrepreneurship, about management, about motivation, about real people who run a lot of successful businesses.
