EDDY’S WORLD IS FULL OF INSPIRATION

The 98-year old toy inventor has no signs of slowing down

Most of us when we were children would have come across or played with one of Eddy Goldfarb‘s toys.  The man who has invented over 800 toys has not only made a name for himself but has brought many families together who have played with his inventions.  It did not all start on the right foot for Eddy who served on the submarine Batfish in WWII before becoming a toy inventor.   He met his wife Anitas June Stern in 1947 and knew that she was the one and quickly married her afterwards.  She supported him for two years after his service in the war when he was unemployed.  Eddy worked diligently on his inventions in this downtime and in 1949 he had three toys in the New York City Toy Fair which included the Yakity-Yak Teeth, the Busy Biddy Chicken and the Merry Go Sip.

The wisdom that Eddy shares with the audience about leading a meaningful life is charming and inspiring.  He gets up every morning to create something in his garage in California where he has a 3D printer along with all the tools to make his magic.  This key to keeping on enduring in his life is simply stated.   Eddy has been disciplined behind his mantra even after going through tumultuous events such as his service in WWII and the death of his wife.  Incredibly, a man of his age of 98 can keep on doing what he loves without missing a beat.  Where many would have thrown in the towel by now, Eddy Goldfarb is still to this day works to achieve a fulfilling and meaningful life.  He is currently in a relationship with Greta Honigsfeld whom he met six years ago and is also involved in a writing group where he writes 100-word stories.  These stories uplift his colleagues.

His daughter Lyn Goldfarb who directed this short biopic Eddy’s World gives the audience a most charming perspective on the life journey of her father.  They get a fresh look at life from watching Eddy’s consistent and inspirational work ethic.  He makes you think that the only person that is stopping you from achieving success in life is you.  Now Eddy does not come out and say that to the audience in the film but his actions do the talking.  For many of us who feel that there is not enough support to help you achieve in life then it’s time to watch Eddy’s World.  He makes no excuses and produces results and of course magic. That’s the key.
