I was in the canteen just the other day grabbing a coffee when I spotted a jar of vitamins that someone had left behind. Upon closer inspection I discovered that Alli (the name on the jar) weren’t vitamins but some diet pills! I wondered was someone trying to tell me something. I’ve put on a few kilos since Thanksgiving so I think I’m going to take it as a sign that I need to get back to the gym and get fit again.

Ive seen so many traders over the years fall into the slippery slope of hitting the drink or even worse hitting the drugs and feel so sorry for them. A number of guys who I traded with over the years have ended up in addiction treatment where they do indeed get themselves sorted but I wonder if they really want to get back into this cut throat business of Forex Trading where I dont mind if you see that the business itself is fast paced but you have to take care of yourself!

We’re moving offices in the next month or so I’ve been looking for a professional moving company in the area. I googled mover NYC looking for lists and eventually settled on one company. Going to take the opportunity of moving to do a huge office clear out and archive a load of files. I think I’ve turned into a hoarder in my old age, way too much paper in this office.

Ok , its a monday morning and I was tired.. I had to pick through our month end financial results when a junior pops into my office with his latest brainwave.. He had decided that he’s going to print out our reports on A4 instead of A3 to save the world.. Told him to do a test run and when i saw what he produced , I was online buying magnifying glasses to try and see what he’d given me!

If you’re like me and it takes you a while to decide where to go for your vacation, check out some of the Branson resorts. One of the guys in the office has just booked his family vacation in the Still Waters retreat and told me about it. The place looks amazing. There’s paddleboats, kayaks, bikes – all for free! For the adventurous types there’s hikes and jogging trails and for those who want to kick back and relax there’s fishing or the poolside hot tub… Think I’ll reserve my seat in that now!

A watch is just a watch right? Wrong. Well, its more than just a watch if it’s a Patek Philippe on your wrist! I was at a seminar recently and got talking to a guy at the bar after. I made the mistake of asking for the time and got the full history of the watch he was wearing and the price too. It was nearly time for bed when he’d finished his speech. Nice watch, shame about the voice.

Ive always been an online shopper and ive loved the concept for years , Ive tried all the best sites to the best buy and more often than not ive come out on top and getting a better deal online than in the shops. The main reason I suppose is overhead of having a shop and rental and not having to pay all of those outgoings and instead pump the cash into a worthwhile business online!

I was asked by our tech guys for a approval to purchase some HDMI switches for our 3 plasma screens. Now ive always been well up on technology but trying to figure out what they needed these for was beyond me. Im also not minding the cash so I did some digging to see what they were..They will take a signal from HD equipment and route it to the TV , its kind of simple when you know how!

Its my sisters birthday coming up in the next few weeks and when I say I had , stress had nothing bought for her , with me on my last legs in shopping mode , decided to go online and then it stuck me that she loves designer jewelry albeit sometimes it does cost the sun moon and stars , but when I found a designer that will sell you the most beautiful items you’ve seen this side of the Mississippi, then its time to get the credit card out!
