10 People I'd like to have lunch with
I had a conversation with an old friend (over lunch) that led to the question: Who would you like to have lunch with more than anyone else? We ruled out dead people and Jesus...Here is what I came up with.
- (Sir) Richard Branson: Who wouldn't, but for me this is the person I want to meet and have a one hour lunch with more than anyone on the planet. I would ask him how he did it and how he keeps doing it over and over again. How many CEO's do you know have a fan club???
- George W. Bush: Whatever your politics, he's the most honorable man to hold office since Ronald.
- Dennis Prager: Talk show host I respect more than any. He's got great insight into god, media and current events.
- Lance Armstrong: Don't even need to explain that one.
- Tiger Woods: I don't play much golf anymore, but I do think it would be interesting to speak with him for a bit.
- Bo Peabody: Remember Tripod? Yeah, that guy. I read the book and since I recently started my own company I do have some questions.
- Ann Coulter: Fire and brimstone. I'd love to have a rant with her.
- Matt Drudge: It's a bit unfair to put him this low on the list, but he would be my "new media" numero uno.
- Marc Benioff: Just to apologize to him for minimizing his Salesforce.com product and choosing Siebel all those years ago. He's on the right track and is one of the "new" visionaries.
- Bill Gates: Who wouldn't want to meet Bill. He's the reason we're all doing what we're doing.
