Christopher Paul Gardner

Career Shifting Decision

1980s
San Francisco, California, U.S.

Gardner returned to San Francisco determined to succeed at business. A pivotal moment in his life occurred after a sales call to a San Francisco General Hospital when he encountered an impeccably dressed man in a red Ferrari. Curious, Gardner asked the man about his career. The man told him he was a stockbroker and, from that moment on, Gardner's career path was decided. Eventually, Gardner bought a Ferrari of his own from Michael Jordan. The Illinois license plate of Gardner's black Ferrari reads "NOT MJ".
