We Need To Put Ourselves

I Was Born On The Other Side Of The Tracks, In Public Housing In Brooklyn, New York. My Dad Never Made More Than $20,000 A Year, And I Grew Up In A Family That Lost Health Insurance. So I Was Scarred At A Young Age With Understanding What It Was Like To Watch My Parents Lose Access To The American Dream.

Everyone Must Have A Shot At The American Dream.

I Do Think - As Self-serving As It Sounds - That I Was The Right Person, Given The Very, Very Strong Headwind We Had From The Economy And Our Own Issues, To Come Back And Rewrite The Future Of The Company.

I Probably Have About Four Or Five Cups Of Coffee A Day. I Make Myself An Espresso Macchiato When I Wake, Which Is A Shot Of Espresso And Just A Dollop Of Steamed Milk. Then, If I'm Going To Do Some Work At Home, I Would Make Myself A French Press. It's The Best Way To Make Conventional Coffee.

I Think We Are Living In A Time Where The Consumer Has Lots Of Choices, Whether It's Coffee, Newspapers Or Whatever It Is. And There Is Parity In The Market Place And As A Result Of That The Consumer Is Beginning To Make Decisions, Not Just On What Things Cost And The Convenience Of It.
