The Geek and the Leek

I have spent some time doing nothing today, which was fantastic. I love the building I am in, because I gatecrashed some party last night through the resident's entrance and was watching the Scrabble Canada Championships over brunch this afternoon.

I am desperately trying to get to bed but I am hit with insomnia again. Its getting later and later now and I am personally worrying for my health and sanity. I have already been called a hypochondriac once over, but I know the drugs don't work. St Johns Wort I mean. I am also getting paranoid for no due reason and it could be because I now have 5 people on the books. Their funds better outperform my estimates.

Being an indie financial advisor has it perks and its personal ironies. I won't go into much, but lets just say I learnt it all with a hands on approach. Thats part of my pitch. I tell clients horror stories on what could happen if you don't have cash and cashbooks are whipped out before you can say REPOSSESSED.

The uncertain financial climate has it perks. Now, to find a way to get into the NYC market, because the more panicky people are, the more likely they'll consider any capital gains rate above inflation a steal.
