September 1st 35 Years Ago Today












Thirty five years ago today I started my first day in business as a shop owner. Gone are the days of hot pink shag carpet right up to the ceiling, pscychedelic wallpaper and 12 hot pink hair dryers. Also gone are the days when we would work all day, close the shop and party till midnite. Leaving an empty bottle of Crown Royal and 10 ahstrays with dirty cigarette butts to empty in the morning. Then start again the next day with one bastardly hangover. Gone are many good operators, many good clients, 3 landlords and their leases, and three moves to new buildings.


A client asked me the other day " After 35 years, where's the money?" That is my question as well " Show me the money."
