With his three children and his supportive and beautiful wife by his side, he went into hypermode and started networking and multitasking, sometimes working five different types of jobs in the course of a week’s time. Lloyd’s working experience for his entire life has been both challenging and rewarding.
During his career, he became a bookkeeper/accountant for small businesses, a life insurance agent, a stock broker, an organization director for banks and newspapers, a residential contractor, a property manager, and a life coach advisor. He has always tried to be an example of positive motivation for all people he had the privilege of associating with.
In 1971, Lloyd discovered his passion and went to work for a little weekly shoppers’ guide called Pennysaver. After expanding its territory and hiring personnel to fill the need, he became the sales manager.
To make a twenty-year career short, he advanced to general manager, corporate director, and over time, became the vice president. In 1986 with the support of the entire staff behind him, he acquired the company. Four short years later, while achieving an 800 percent growth in business revenue, Lloyd sold his successful newspaper chain of eight editions, which at that time had a combined circulation larger than the Boston Globe. ABC/Disney won the bid and acquired his corporate holdings.
In 1990 at the age of forty-four, he had fulfilled his dream and has been enjoying retirement ever since.
Lloyd made a statement shortly after completing the first section of this book back in 2013: “This project has temporarily taken me out of full retirement and returned me to corporate America to offer something of great value for our youth. But it hasn’t stopped me from accomplishing my other passion of playing golf at least four times a week.”ver menos
