Who is the one living person that you admire the most?

Dr. Tony Attwood for me. Australian psychologist who knows his Aspergers/autism well. He's come up with some great quotes about living with the condition.

Sir David Attenborough, he started my lifelong love for nature programs.

People who volunteer. People who don’t need to communicate the good things they do everyday across social media. People who give up their time to help others without any angles or photo ops. I admire Irelands hidden hero’s.

Without him, there would probably be no hip hop music. I think he's the 2nd most sampled artist ever after James Brown?

no particular person but someone who can be successful in different fields, it takes a bit of extra talent to be successful in different fields. An Elon Musk character is interesting

People who care for those with special needs.

Several of my siblings, but if we're talking about public figures, I'd say Mike Murphy.

The Irish Terry Wogan.

An eminently decent man, with a greater intellect than most of the Montrose broadcasters combined. He should have gotten The Late Late Show.

Probably Arnold Alois Schwarzenegger. Super smart, incredible dedication and belief, not much of an actor but is so great at the same time. Smokes cigars and eats Green Berets for breakfast.

All round legend.

He's a good role model.

Warren Buffet, great role model and teacher of investing, also donated billions to charity

My wife, 2 degrees and a PhD, published in several scientific journals and the most humble down to earth caring person I know, her thirst for knowledge and teaching is never ending and her work on environmental issues will hopefully pave the way for changes down the line

I read he will give his children one million dollars each and that is it

As more money may ruin them

I know his son is a guitar player and tours in a band

Buffet seems a down to earth guy. Lives in the house he bought in the 1970´s

My Dad. Every breath he takes seems to be for someone else.. I actually wish he cared more about himself.. I don't have words to describe how much I adore him - I am blessed..
