Videojournalist Rachel Santos interviewed Bob Love just after he addressed students at the Porter County Career and Technical Center. Bob's message was to work hard, stay in school, and be careful about picking your friends. He said, "You will earn the average income of your four closest friends." So, if you want to have a lot of money, "Pick your friends carefully." Kyle Gilbert is seen operating the video camera for the interview.
Mr. Love stayed to sign autographs, shirts, and basketballs, and to pose for photographs with numerous students.
Besides being a famous basketball star, Bob Love is well-known for overcoming a serious speech impediment after his playing days were over. His inspirational message of overcoming a disability was encouraging to all of us who battle through the daily ritual of life.
