On today's Coffee with Rich, we will be joined by Charles Haywood.
Charles Haywood writes at The Worthy House. He was born in Indiana, where he now lives with his Australian wife and five children. His father taught Russian history at Purdue University. His mother was born in Hungary, and Charles has spent quite a bit of time in Hungary and maintains a keen interest in Hungarian affairs.
After getting a degree in history from Indiana University, Haywood moved to Chicago, to obtain a law degree from the University of Chicago Law School. He graduated in 1994 and clerked for a year for the late Hon. Michael S. Kanne, on the United States Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit, and then practiced as a big-firm lawyer in Chicago in the late 1990s and early 2000s, primarily mergers-and-acquisitions and securities law.
However, Charles tired of law and wanted to be rich. So he gave more of his money to the University of Chicago, to get an MBA at the Booth School of Business. Then he moved back to Indiana and started a business that developed and manufactured hair care products (after first briefly operating a woodworking and cabinetry business). He grew the business to 150 employees and sold it in 2020.
Now, other than The Worthy House, Charles involves himself in various political and cultural matters, but also devotes considerable time to trying to be a gentleman farmer. He and his family raise bees, chickens, and a wide variety of plants, and he hopes to expand these endeavors.
