We all have some friends that are amazing. John is one of my friends that fit the amazing part. John has the most wonderful wife. She is his wife, best friend and business partner. The amazing part is they are in love more today as when they got married over twenty years ago. Now about John he is the most gracious person you will ever meet. He remembers things about people, like when he would ask me about how my dad was doing. He called my dad a you old man, but it was in a very caring way. John likes the ladies. He is always flattering them and kidding them about their “old man”. They ladies love it.
John is a very good golfer. He can play with anyone. If you ever get a chance to play with golf with John you would be in for a great experience.
John has years of experience in the petroleum distribution business, so after he left a major oil company, he start a consulting business for distributers of petroleum or as we laymen would say gas stations. This consulting keeps him as busy as he wants to be.
Here is an interesting project he took on. A major oil company wanted to sell over two hundred gas stations in South Florida. A South American major player in petroleum was interested in buying them, but didn’t know what price to put on them, so he contacted John. Yes John good do it, but there was a problem the bid had to be in by end of the month which was only seven days away. For some reason John said he could do it but at the time had no idea how he was going to get the job done on time.
First ideas he contacted a friend that is a computer guru, who was always telling him let me know if you need any help. So he called him and told him his problem. Bingo the guru had a solution.
I’ll give you the solution in my next blog and a question for you.
Happiness to you
