Education / Training
I have heard the following adage too many times to even venture a guess at the actual count. “Do what you love, and you’ll never work a day in your life.” At first blush, it sounds accurate. I have been listening to Scott Galloway’s podcast and interviews with him about his new book, The Algebra of Wealth. He is a professor of marketing at New York University and, from my perspective, takes a practical approach to challenges we face. His latest book examines how to accumulate wealth and the downstream benefits of having greater means. He turns that adage upside down and tosses it in the trash.
NEF is solely supported by sponsorships and donations and its Ladder Club of Success offers individuals the opportunity to support NEF with one-time or reoccurring automatic donations. Your financial support educates others through various programs and construction industry education courses. Fundraising is also done by NEF Fundraising Liaisons at a Regional and Chapter level.
