“Trust me, doing business with someone doesn’t make you their friend or lapdog.”
I agree. During my business career some of the best business deals I negotiated were with people I would never invite to my house for dinner.
Exactly. In 1996 I did a deal (for a company I worked for) with a large South Korean company. It took me two weeks in country. $9 million dollar contract. I wouldn’t cross the street to put any of those guys out if they were on fire.
