I know somebody who has a Ferrari 360. Takes holidays in St Tropez, buys the most expensive cloths.... and spents all the money his parents worked for. He is well know in the local jetset, and has a company that is virtually broke, losing money on a daily basis. Only one employee is still working there, all the rest left because they didn't get paid. He had an accident with his Ferrari, but he didn't repair him. I asked why? He said he was waiting to buy a McLaren. Reality appears to be that he has no money to repair his Ferrari. But he goes to all jetset parties and has a (cheap) Russian girlfriend. He announced now that he will go and live in South America and wants to sell his business. He is following another famous jetsetter from the same group, who had the same lifestyle till he had to run away. Broke and not paying back millions he lent from family.
So what? Tons of risk taking guys go broke--- no big deal. He will make it back and hopefully pay back his debts. surf
Thank you for attending our deal making social at REDACTED. It was great chatting with many of you again and meeting new faces. I know that several deals and multiple constructive business relationships were launched. Not to mention numerous new and old friendships kindled. Together we can turn Palm Beach County and South Florida into the global financial hub it is meant to be. I truly hope you gained as much value, as well as just pure pleasure, from networking with your peers, driving the stable of Ferraris, and enjoying the amazing appetizers and drinks from REDACTED(the seafood was out of this world!) and REDACTED , as I did. Keep your eye on our website, for photos of the party and future events. Stay tuned for your invitation to a very special November event sponsored by Rolls Royce This private party is strictly invitation only. Looking forward to seeing you there!! All the best,
His parents were wealthy and he never finished school and never worked. The biggest risk he ever took was buying a car with his parents money. He will never make it back because from start he never had anything he made himself. He doesn't even know what debts are. Only spending he knows. And pretending that he is a businessman.
In my opinion his parents erred in not making him work for his $$. Of course they should help him but not just give $$. Donald Trump sets a good example with the way he manages his money with his kids. Not a jerk like Buffett -- surf
I couldn't help but notice these redactions. I sincerely hope we can find a solution which enables you to continue posting links to the PBHFA site and that your online persona and efforts to pursue the things that matter most to you continue to thrive as they have in the past.
It's unfortunate the redacted businesses aren't getting any publicity, forum members aren't getting information, Baron's not benefiting financially, and you aren't maximizing the appeal of what you're offering. So I was thinking this can be a 4 way win for all involved if you took some time to arrange a nominal payment which enabled promoting these businesses. I don't envision that ever being your primary goal but I see it as a way to increase the service others around you experience and I believe that's inline with your goals. I looked up the definition of concierge and unfortunately it's not the appropriate word to convey what I believe you're trying to offer your clients but I wanted to share this idea and encourage others to be thinking along the lines of finding ways to help you enhance what you do ...in areas or ways in which you might have overlooked.
