week. He's a Regional VP for a Fortune 500 company that specializes in real estate development. He forgot he had a teleconference with a bunch of company attorneys prior to a final meeting the next day to close a 1 billion dollar project with a state educational system.

I sat there listening in and was blown away just how dang smart he is in his sphere of expertise. I won't even try to relay the issues they were navigating and strategy. But I was sitting there thinking..good Lord he's like a brain surgeon of business. Haha No wonder he makes 7 figures..

I then told him he's the smartest idiot I've ever met. One reason we've been close friends for 15 years..I keep him humble..lol

But he loves conferences. His excuse to drink and network. And plant the seeds for future deals..of course.

He took up golf because his company insisted on it..
