If he is a fool, he will take himself out of the equation without your misspent energy nudging him along an inevitable, self-inflicted demise.My lineage is Italian, and my ancestors immigrated without papers ("WOP") in hordes, eventually adapting into the American culture after spending generations without knowing the English language.

Those who fail to change, adapt, educate themselves and deal fairly IMO need to die off.

However that is my view I am sure others would adapt very well to a road map.

I grew up in a duplex near railroad tracks and had an office in downtown Sacramento near tracks... you adapt to it easily and after about 30 days you barely notice it.

The investors have always been supportive and have never discouraged me one bit and for that I am grateful.I have a plan that I have learned must adapt and evolve.
