The thing about excess is, there is bound to be something in all of those ponies that appeals to you. ONE of them is just going to be the coolest pony ever.
Ah, as usual, I tromp all over someone else's moment w/my St. Bernard-like clueless friendliness. (Yes, I figured it was rhetorical, but I also figured you wouldn't mind an answer)
This is starting to sound like my ex's venture in to the Pharmaceutical Industry. The weekend jaunts to Vegas, the drugs, the gambling debts. Dinner at Mortons once a week. Purchasing so many shots of Louis XIV that the bartenders give you the Waterford Crystal bottle it comes in when you and your buddies finish it. Yeah. When the money rolls in...well, when everything is a possibility, I guess you find out where you really stand.
Holy shit, you just reminded me of the dinner we had at a place called Crystals! I remember the VP buying a shot of 150 year old brandy for dessert. I think the shot cost him about 100 bucks. Damn that restaurant was expensive too. Wow, thanks.
One client came in to personally meet me so he could size me up. The boss was unamused, he didn't want us to meet clients at all and he told me so. This was awkward.
Ha. I just read in Suze Orman's Women & Money that if a financial planner won't meet with you in person, to exit, stage left, post haste. The planner that torberg and I are working on getting on board with actually requires it.
