He dedicated3 his book to the memory of his father, to whom he had once spoken harshly and accused of a lack of ambition. They were words Schultz would regret the rest of his life, his father died of lung cancer before his son became a millionaire. Schultz once told his audience that his greatest success was that the "got to build the kind of company that my father never got to work for."
  虽然舒尔茨取得了巨大的成功,但他并没有忘记自己出生于工人阶级家庭。他曾专门写了一本书来追忆自己的父亲,那个曾经被他无情地指责为缺乏抱负的父亲。书中写到的都是令舒尔茨在后半生感到后悔的文字,因为在他成为一位百万富翁之前,他的父亲因患有肺癌而去世了。舒尔茨曾经对他的读者说,“他最大的成功便是"建立了这样的一家公司,这是我父亲一直向往,却不曾拥有的。”
