“ If you can find something that you love , and you truly love it , the money is irrelevant . Success will happen if you keep loving what you do . And I ’ ve surrounded myself with like-minded people in that regard . I love seeing my guys smile and cheer each other on because that is what feeds into that long-term success .”
Speaking of long-term , Danny ’ s vision for the company is to see it continue well beyond his expected retirement . “ I will keep doing this until I ’ m no longer breathing – I love it that much ! In five years from now , I ’ d like to hope that my kids will start following in their father ’ s footsteps . I have two daughters who work for me at my other business , and they are absolute rock stars , and my son has said that he ’ d like to build houses as well . So , I suppose the long-term dream is to see the business stay within the family . If my kids grow to do what they love , and it looks like it ’ s heading in that direction , then I couldn ’ t be happier ,” Danny concludes . ■
