The start-up company I joined earlier this year made a presentation this summer to a guy who sits at number 200-something on the Forbes' richest people list. This guy's got billions of dollars, has a company that does business in 89 countries, he's an interesting guy, worked his way up. At a certain point in the slide show, what we now refer to as the "money shot", he started mumbling to himself then made a few audible comments that indicated he was figuring up how much money could be made on what we were showing him. I expected him to start drooling but he didn't, not quite. The guy's getting up there in years, too, and still it's the money and the power the money buys that motivates him. Remarkable.
