The Rogers' story reads like a press release. Can someone with PR experience comment why all Rogers stories mention "his daughter learning 'Chinese'". Every single one. Like clockwork.
Mentioning his daughter's Chinese nanny is bizarre -- presumably so she can "learn 'Chinese'", but are we supposed to be impressed/surprised that she has a nanny?
The story also mentions he moved to Singapore, not China (after strangely reporting he sold his NY townhouse over asking!!1!). I guess China's a great place to invest, but you wouldn't want to live there.
I'm wondering if Mr. Rogers is experiencing some sort of 2nd midlife crisis. This goes way beyond talking your book!
