A genuine shirt off his back kinda guy that fought and clawed his way to the top.
He looks after his kids well, but not in the I have hundreds of millions of dollars way well. They have to earn it like anyone else, hold onto a 9-5 job and he's more than open to investing in their futures, but you better have a rock solid business plan, know what you are doing and be prepared to be accountable if things go south.
The one thing I will say, I owe the guy a lot, and he's the type that it has nothing to do with who you know, how you look, or how far you'll bury your nose up the bosses ass. He's 100% about, how hard are you willing to work, and what's the result? And he'll never get offended if you disagree with him. He's always looking for a way to improve, even if it's not his idea.

I know someone exactly like this who is worth 9 figures - you'd never know it. Nicest guy I know. Would not hesitate to give you his last $5 if he thought you had a good plan for it.
I also interact daily with a family mentioned in this thread that is worth 10 figures. Kind of wild to think about.
