How a Father's Dream Became a Book
from People Of Distinction · host Al Cole
What happens when a multi-million dollar empire built on your father's impossible dream comes crashing down—and you're left with nothing but the horses that started it all? Gene LaCroix went from rubbing shoulders with Bob Hope and William Shatner at the National Horse Show to losing everything in the 1986 tax reform crash. But his story isn't about the fall—it's about what he discovered when the applause stopped. This raw conversation explores legacy, reinvention, and the stunning truth that fulfillment has nothing to do with wealth. Get the book "Thanks to My Father's Dream" on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, or Gene's Facebook page.
