Just like you make your banker's job easier by coming in with a neatly organized folder as opposed to 1,000 lose pages, and just like you make your CPA's job easier by not showing up with a shoe-box full of receipts, don't give your PM a $30,000 pig and expect them to work miracles - no miracles in this sport, right Chris?
