2014 Summer Internship

You may have had the opportunity to meet our 2014 summer intern, Matt Brugner, who spent the last two months in the Hill Investment Group office. As he returns to Baylor University in Waco, TX, for his junior year, he’ll also spend time on the golf course managing and competing with the Baylor club golf team. Matt spent most of his free time this summer on the golf course and even caddied for the 2014 Curtis Cup at St. Louis Country Club in June.

We want to make sure you catch some of our shorter bits throughout the month on social media. To that end, here’s the sampling from the past month. Henry Bragg is developing a habit of catching beautiful long views when he travels.

Book Review: The Joy in Giving

We’re always open to charitable inspiration, and I recently found it in a book called Empty Mansions: The Mysterious Life of Huguette Clark and the Spending of a Great American Fortune.

Huguette Clark, the daughter of William A. Clark, a former U.S. Senator and copper magnate, lived a fulfilling life—though marked by her own unique style—that ended with the last 20 years in a hospital and an estate worth more than $300 million. The centenarian never worked for a dollar and didn’t seem much interested in business. Her real talent was giving money away and seeing others enjoy it. She personally orchestrated gifts of cash to employees and toys to their children. She even included complete strangers and often arranged recurring gifts for the entire life of the recipient.

No matter how big or small the scale, charitable giving can bring the same amount of joy to you as it did for Clark. She never failed to embrace the excitement in making someone else’s life a little bit better.
