I have studied a lot on business and self help, and this by far is the best interview I have seen. I assure you that the USA would benefit greatly if we had more people like this running business and our government. When you put other people before your self that is a truly selfless act and it is very inspiring to me. I am a business owner my self and i strive every day to do what he speaks of. If I was a business professor or a teacher on any level I would show this interview to every class.

I saw Howard in New York City on Mar 30, 2011. It was a terrific program and so was this program.

Snake. Fink. Traitor. Ignorant. Vilified.

Whatever was left of Howie's soul evaporated in 2006.
