One of the Bates sons, Aaron Bates, is a licensed insurance agent who works at the brokerage. Prior to his career in insurance, Aaron Bates served in the US Special Forces and spent several months stationed in South Korea, where he was born. The events surrounding his discovery of his biological father, who was serving time on death row in a South Korean prison, inspired the making of the film My Father (released in 2007).[9]
