One night they came over, and said, essentially, you have something in your genes. You are going to be a businessperson, but don’t ever borrow money.

They said, “Harris, Buy the stock.” I couldn’t buy more than 10-15 shares, but I’d look at Avon every morning, and I did very well.
We had a tiny little office where our accounting folks stayed, but they outgrew it. I said, we’ll convert it to primary care health center.
