My tenant has moved in last weekend with my special treat for welcome dinner.

. :) This year after a tough day of financial planning, we treated ourselves to dinner.

As @Jay Papasan said, folks I'd enjoy having over to dinner. 

Mark,I guess it is illegal if someone brings a buyer, and you say to think you, and I will buy you dinner or pay your car payment because I like you.

LOL That's a good one Chris.My clients I meet one on one in person for lunch or dinner or if they are out of state or the country we e-mail, talk on the phone, occasionally Skype, etc.These REIA's just seem like pitch fests in some cases as mentioned to extract money from newbies.

If you're willing to help Account Closed out with questions about his topics in exchange for a dinner, please let him know

So on the next trip out, give me a call and we'll all do dinner.

Let me know if you want to meet for lunch  / dinner sometime.  

As for as how late I keep my cold calling before dinner time which for me is between 5-6.

I am genuinely curious if its considered acceptable protocol.Your advice may be practical, but its kind of like suggesting people take their wives to dinner and deduct as a business expense.
