Bill O'Reilly

O' Reilly grew up in a family with strict rules and a very strong father. He rebelled against his father at several points in his youth, but looked back later in life to see that his upbringing gave him a moral center that helped him immensely in life. He also realized that it was very hard to break the pattern of total independence that had been inadvertently passed down to him from his father and grandfather. It took several years and several jobs for Bill O'Reilly to learn that it was necessary to trust others around him. It didn't always work out, he had several "friends" turn on him, but it did teach him to judge people much better. This process of evaluating people for their character became a very important skill that helped immensely in both his personal and business life.
