After our friend and partner, Larry Allen, passed away last May, I was called to care for his clients in Houston, Texas. I went down there to visit them in June to find out what they wanted to do.

At BTL we like to say that "mass attracts mass." What we mean is that people who have worked to build a strong CORE--knowing who they are, why they are here, what they believe, where they are going, and what it will take to get there--end up creating an attractive personal culture.
