2 stories from the time I worked at the Carlyle. One night I was chatting with Bobby and he mentioned that when he started working and making some real money and knew nothing about investing. He mentioned a friend of his was buying stock in some new company and he decided to invest there as well - IBM.
Then there was the night we only had 11 customers in the Cafe - Bobby was all upset, claiming his equipment had electrical problems and he'd have to have it all repaired the next day. The manager asked me to look it over and see if there was anything I could do. I crawled under the piano and plugged his
amplifier back in - a very unhappy Mr. Short performed for 11 people that night. He was a great guy and it was a privilege knowing him. |
