Because when he finds out you took all of his "valuables", he will ask what you did with all of the gold bars and diamonds he had in the house. 

a) 5 Years is nothing, I'm talking about a lifetime product.b) Changing out a single tile or 2 is ridiculously easy, you apparently have never done it (right). 1) Simply cut around the tile and an X across it with a diamond blade grinder. 2) Chip out tile pieces. 3) Glue in new tile with silicone. 4) Grout with a premix grout (add tint if necessary).

You can take money from the Trust as a benefit or convert assets to yourself, e.g. write yourself a check and put into your checking account, then buy that diamond ring.  

@Erin Dorsey Robinson I know someone who learned the diamond business.

I will ask those questions when I call tomorrow@Alan Brown,  Rosendale is a bit out of a diamond in the rough.  

I also can't wait until the next wave of foreclosures to be released so I can pick up some diamonds in the roughGood luck and happy investing

@Brian Burke  PS going to hike up to the top of Diamond head today..  

If this interests you at all, I'll talk to my Black Diamond partners tomorrow night: What if you had a separate BP meetup before the Black Diamond event in Waltham?

If you look at how a lot of people have escaped countries in the past during political turmoil, they use things like gold, silver, diamonds, etc. 

Look for a book called "Getting More" by Stuart Diamond.
