Emanuel Brothers' Triple Success
Share
Sam Parr shares a story about the remarkable success of the three Emanuel brothers, as detailed in a book called "Brothers Emanuel: A Memoir of an American Family."
"There's a book I read years ago called Brothers Emanuel. Ari Emanuel is probably a billionaire and one of the shot callers in LA. His brother is Rahm Emanuel, who was the mayor of Chicago and on Obama's cabinet - a political power player.
In the book, Ari and Rahm talk about their third brother Zeke (Ezekiel), saying 'A lot of people know us, but they don't know that our third brother is the smartest and more successful.' Ezekiel was head of health for the government under Obama and helped architect the Affordable Care Act. I think he also helped pioneer heart transplants and invented things that save lives.
The two brothers say 'Zeke's the smart one, we're just more stubborn and bullheaded.' It's interesting that these three brothers all achieved such different types of success - one in entertainment, one in politics, and one in healthcare."
