Has anyone noticed the wholesalers coming through? Have they aged in the past year or so?

  The reason I am asking...Do all of us look that bad too?

I have 6 new gray hairs since september.  Other than that, I like to think I’m 6x smarter since then too.

In this market, it’s ok to look a little grizzled… weathered even. A few more grey hairs, wrinkles, lack of sleep lines/bags, some weight loss. Clients appreciate the fact that it’s stressing me out too. Unlike those “evil Wall Street Fat Cats” giving their offices a million dollar face lift while the rest of the country burns… Er, something like that anyway. I’m on YOUR side of the table Mr. Client, and you love me for it.

  I don't bother to tell them that my net new assets are up for the year.   and I still have my boyish good looks. :-)

I’ve become a bald, fat tub of sh!t over the past couple of years.  When my clients come to the office, we hand them  an instruction sheet of how to operate the portable defibrulator mounted on the wall in my private office.  I had been thinking of taking up smoking for years and the 2008 market clinched it.  My hottie wife still loves me though.

I’ve gained a bunch of weight, and found some grey hairs… and believe me I’m WAY to young for grey hairs.

All that means is that the UV light emmissons from your XBox are bleaching out your hair.

This market has caused me to lose 7 lbs via stress.  Not too shabby considering I haven't worked out since 1992.
