I was in a meeting recently with two guys who both had Rolex’s on, and all it told me is that they probably take bribes.

I used to work on yachts. Expensive watches were a pretty good asshole signal.

Plenty of fabulously wealthy people out there wearing timex, Ironman, or Apple Watches.

If you’re judging someone’s business acumen based on their watch, you also seem to think that telling us how much your buddy grosses is supposed to tell us anything at all.

I think you might’ve intended to respond to my parent.
