The face of televisied venture capital changes again
Meeting about the next venture, over drink on Charbar's amazing rooftop patio. What started as a business meeting soon involved friends, and more pitchers of sangria then I care to admit. Five or six short hours later, while the lights were going out, as the patio closed, we watched the sky catch fire. And they said it was supposed to hail. Lol. #nofilter #goodtimes #entrepreneur #finance #charbar #patio #sunset #sun #wine (at charbar)
Okay, I may have a problem. I intended to just purchase a couple of pairs of socks on a small outing with a client. But a dozen pairs later tells another story. Damn behavioural economics! #finance #financialplanning #behaviouraleconomics #entrepreneur #sartorial #workhardplayhard (at West Vancouver, British Columbia)
"In Flanders fields the poppies blow Between the crosses, row on row, That mark our place; and in the sky The larks, still bravely singing, fly Scarce heard amid the guns below. We are the Dead. Short days ago We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow, Loved and were loved, and now we lie In Flanders fields. Take up our quarrel with the foe: To you from failing hands we throw The torch; be yours to hold it high. If ye break faith with us who die We shall not sleep, though poppies grow In Flanders fields." -John McCrae Lest we forget... We remember. #remember #thankful #quotes #armistaceday #remberanceday #veteransday #soldier #humble #cohen (at Prince's Island Park)

After spending a day in Vancouver preparing for a conference on the tax changes next year old friends are found. Dinner at Cardero's, a walk on the waterfront, and drinks at too many places to count. We brake away from a crowd to go listen to a jazz band I heard earlier. Wouldn't you know, the only available table is front row, and the band is great. A bottle of Tantalus, and a the night ends perfectly. #finance #grin #workhardplayhard # (at Fairmont Pacific Rim Hotel)
