As I Peel My Eyes Open And Realize It Is The Last Day Of The #calgarystampede This Year, I Can't Help

"When you arise in the morning, think of what a precious privilege it is to be alive - to breathe, to think, to enjoy, to love." -Marcus Aurelius #finance #financialplanning #entrepreneur #workhardplayhard #hustle #quotes #sunrise #marcusaurelius #emperor #nyc #madametussauds (at Madame Tussauds New York)

When you're going for a Rolls-Royce quote, do you go the classics from Henry Royce? "Strive for perfection in everything you do." -Henry Royce "Whatever is rightly done, however humble, is noble. (Quidvis recte factum quamvis humile praeclarum.)" -Henry Royce "Take the best that exists and make it better." -Henry Royce Or do you go with something with more unique: "I am like a Rolls-Royce. I can run without an engine, purely on reputation." -Shahrukh Khan Whatever the answer, the unveiling of the 2018 Rolls-Royce Phantom was a sight to behold. Of course Calgary had to get hit with a blizzard, and the roads resulted in being more than a little touch a go than anyone would prefer. It started late, but Million Air made a great host. When you walk in from the blowing snow and trade a jacket and gloves for flutes of champagne and oer d'oeuvres, you know the drive was worth while. This version of the legendary Phantom was the extended wheel base version, over 23' long. It's a land yacht of luxury. The first car to be equipped with laser lights, and so over the top in splendor, most of the private jets sharing the hanger blushed. . . . . . . #finance #financialplanning #entrepreneur #workhardplayhard #hustle #quotes #blessed #Calgary #yyc #thankful #legacy #leader #goals #thankful #wine#legend #luxurycars #luxury #rollsroyce #phantom #wine #yacht (at Million Air Calgary)

Many countries printed excess money in the financial crisis of 2008. Eventually we are going to have to deal with the resulting deflation. http://www.businessinsider.com/why-is-deflation-bad-2015-1

Another shot from between 4:30 and 5:15pm driving between Calgary and Banff. Great Scott! #ItsReal #BackToFutureDay #bttf2015

Business meeting + Wine + The best roof top patio around + Good friends + A view to die for = Productive memories. Watching the Sunset over Charbar. June 30th tax deadline tomorrow. Worth it! #nofilter #goodtimes #entrepreneur #finance #charbar #patio #sunset #sun #wine #calgary #yyc (at charbar)

And so Motionball is about to begin! (at Sub Rosa, Calgary)

Now this is food for thought. Opinions?

"Whenever someone asks me if I want water with my Scotch, I say I'm thirsty, not dirty." -Joe E. Lewis I found myself organising and backing up my pictures from my phone into albums, and found some fun times I just had to share. Better late than never I suppose. The day last year of the pop up private scotch tasting on St. Patrick's Island. Bruichladdich was fantastic at explaining and pairing our meal, even if mother nature did unleash one hell of a downpour. The water formed muddy puddles, tried to collapse our temporary shelter, and in the end, I had to say goodbye to a pair of Allen Edmonds. But I won't forget the experience with fond memories. . . . . . . #bruichladdich #betterlatethannever #finance #financialplanning #entrepreneur #workhardplayhard #hustle #quotes #blessed #Calgary #yyc #thankful #legacy #rain #leader #scotch #private #exclusive #socialbuttonco #meals #food #music #wine (at St Patrick's Island)
