Have the car pick me up around ten a.m., I suppose. Do I need to bring anything?

Subject: Executive Protocol

As per the Willington-Shatterly company docket, I am supposed to extend to you the services of Gambi's, Manhattan's finest tailor blah blah blah. The suit you wore to the IPO briefing will be fine. Our host insisted that it be a casual meeting. Casual, of course, being by corporate standards. However, since you now own enough stock in his advanced optics research company to come close to ousting one of his senior board members, I think he'll be more than polite.

Informally, as one Sigma Tau Phi brother to another, don't dress up too much. We want to go into this meeting in a position of power. This is playing with the big boys.

You were Sig Tau? I knew there was a reason I like you. Does this mean I'm going to have to go to corporate meetings and shit, because I recall you saying that we were "diversifying my interests" enough not to have to actually take part in anything, just to sit back and let the dividends come in, right? I deal with enough shit here, and I sure as hell don't want to go sit on Wall Street in a tie for a stupid meeting. I'm still not sure my money wouldn't just be fine in the bank.

Sigma Tau Phi brother, class of '01. Sure, you were Class of '59, but who's counting? Sig Tau's a lifetime membership, Cain. Although I have to admit, we're both a little lax on the matter of alumni dues.

Don't worry, we've diversified your portfolio enough to give you no less than seven percent and no more than eleven point five percent investment in the seventeen companies that are in your account folder. You can access it online through the W-S web portal, but since I know you hate that stuff, I'll bring the latest account information by tomorrow morning at ten.

I still stand by my assertion that Advanced Idea Mechanics would have been a stronger investment, even with the FDIC problems they're having right now. It's your money, but I'd keep watching their stock on the NASDAQ. Their regional head is in talks with Martin Marietta right now about a major acquisition, which means stock goes up, my friend.

Think about it.

Isn't that insider trading? A little too risky with my money, Cameron. All I want to do is sit back, know my money's secure, and treat myself to a little something now and then off the dividends. It's why I signed the control over to Willington-Shatterly, and they put you on it. You know your stuff, and you're up front with me. Besides, if you can't trust a frat brother with your investments, who can you trust?

And who's this guy we're meeting again?

It's only insider trading if they know you're on the inside, Cain. But thank you, and rest assured that Willington-Shatterly will treat your account with the utmost care, and more importantly, I'll be taking personal accountability for your portfolio. Don't worry about keeping track of all the stuff online, I'll let you know where the financials stand on a weekly basis. I may not be a hotshot Harvard legacy graduate like our esteemed CFO, but I know where the wind's blowing - and I can slaughter him at racquetball.

Just remember, the car will be there at ten. And it's Sebastian Shaw, of Shaw Industries. Trust me, he's a stand up guy. Salt of the earth, just a regular joe with three companies on the Fortune 500.

Don't worry, I'll take care of you.
