Thank you for this Joe. Great advice.
Dear Joe,
Huge fan.
1. Primarily, props and praise for who you as a “man,” father, husband, son, strength pro, and servant to all of your blessed clientele.
2. This ashamedly might seem self-aggrandizing, but I would like to distinguish myself and, I pray, catch your attention so that we can connect: Officially I am an international tax attorney (licensed in Virginia and the country of Dominica) but also a decades-long entrepreneur, investment banker, economist, ordained minister, author, and State Champion Masters natural bodybuilder, the latter of which is my “extracurricular” passion—also having 27 years of higher ed., and—believe it or not—10 degrees, 5 at the Ph.D. level.
3. I am fortunate to have established an extensive global network, due to the nature of my practice and writings. I love and admire what you do/have done in and with your career and family and humbly sense that we might have (pardon the over-used term) mutually beneficial synergies—plus, can’t deny the football emphasis in your life which is bigtime for yours truly also.
If I could email you, I would be happy to supply you with my CV and other material for purposes of vetting.
Thanks in advance.
All the best to you and your obviously wonderful family.
