Stop in for a drink.

Something happened today that I have been thinking about and trying to process.

I ran into the former Chairman of the Board of a company that I worked for 10 years ago. This is a guy that I made a lot of money with working for him and he completely trusted me and let me do what I thought best...no questions asked.

He has made over $400 million in his last two deals and has a wing of the University of Pennsylvania School of Law named after him. He is the real deal and incredibly successful. He drives a $400k McLaren Spyder as a daily driver...because he can. But talk cars with him, and he’s just a regular car guy like anyone on this forum.

Anyway, he kept telling me about how much fun he had working with me and that he was thinking about “putting the band back together” once he closes his current $240 million deal. He kept calling me “family” and that he has me in mind for something special in his next gig.

I don’t know what to think...but I told him “I’m always interested and you know where to find me.” He just smiled and said “I have been keeping close track of you and I will be in contact when the time is right.” Then he winked at me.

I honestly don’t know what to think of this. He doesn’t bullshit, but “next gig” could be an indefinite time frame. I am just amazed that he has been tracking me and making sure he knows how to find me when he wants to.

I never expected that.
