Acton Hero: Bud Brigham


From this video: http://www.actonhero.org/celebrating-heroes/stories-of-heroes/index.php?hero=ben-brigham 

Bud Brigham came from humble origins in a broken home growing up in Odessa Texas, but he knew from the very beginning that he wanted to be an entrepreneur. I learned from him that I need to start young and be the best I can be. A great lesson from him, that I want to apply to my life, is that he surrounded himself with bright people who shared his value system; I know that by doing that I can be positively influenced by those people and learn from them without even noticing it. I have heard before that we become the average of the five people we spend more time with so we’d better spend time with people who will help us be better. Bud Brigham mentions that he has received a lot of support from his wife and that his family has given purpose to his life.



An interesting detail about him is that he follows the objectivist philosophy.
