GARY: To succeed the way I did, doing what I did, required a very high level of focused single mindedness to the point of being willing to give up a lot of other things that most people would not be willing to give up. The cost of my success was very high. I did not have a family. I did not have a wife and children. I did not go out and party, I did not even have a television set, because I could not give up the time from my work.
