Update; still alive

I'm still alive; been working 100hr weeks but the work has been very interesting and extremely high profile. One of the biggest highlights so far is dining with one of the richest guys in south east asia. I've met quite a few affluent people in my life but this meeting just blew my mind after I found out he has 5 personal jet planes and over 150 cars in his collection. Part of the collection includes mclaren f-1, over 10 ferraris, 30 over porsches including a porsche gt!, rolls royces, mercedes. We aren't talking about the dime the dozen 2008 S class ...we are talking rare 70 year old mercedes benz that is valued at a couple of million a pop. I only visited one of his 7 garages but I managed to see some of these gems and they were all emmaculately kept. This meeting totally humbled me and at the same time made me wonder why those people who eventually make enough to buy just one of these car behave like they rule the world..:)

That's all for now; will share some pics some other time.
