P.S. what is 'taking care' in this context? Gifts?
Yes gifts of different varieties. It could be basketball/football tickets, gc to their fav restaurants or a nice bottle of their favorite spirit. It all depends on the person. I’ve done this with most people I do business with as a gesture of goodwill since they have been good to me. Small gestures like this usually pay large dividends.

oh. I thought you were literally paying for vacations (at a point). Still get kurds or armenians. They are great.

"toyish" made me laff

The new Vantage. Saw one for the first time in Monterey and it's a thing of beauty. First thing I did when I got home was to start working on the wife. It's going to be a long road though.

It's his uninformed way of implying that Armenians or Kurds are prone to violent measures. It's like saying just get Jews and Palestinians.

What he doesn't understand is that Kurds and Armenians are polar opposites.

Here is my rant: too many dumb people with too much money.

I’m not to sure about the violence as history shows that they’re usually the victims...

One or the other, not one AND the other. In my corner of the world they are great at collections. Kurds are brave af, they just don't care and great at calm collections. Armenians, are a bit more brute and more organized. Oh well, it was a stupid funny way, that wasn't funny at all.

I am LOVING Apple right now. Just wish I had some ***** and invested way more at $95. Oh and I HATE all these posters that go into a for sale thread and say "oh at that price it should sell quickly" but the moderators won't let you go in and say "stay away that car is WAY over priced"
