After about 30 minutes of quiet driving, we started discussing university-related stuff. As we talked, I decided it was time to come clean with Sam.
Since he first mentioned he could introduce me to someone from his family, we had spoken about investing quite a bit, and he was impressed with how much I knew.
However, he didn't know anything about my actual trading history.
"Look Sam. I am indeed a beginner in investing, but I've been doing extremely well in the last year. I need you to know that if your family ever wants to offer me a job as a trader, I will most definitely refuse."
Sam's reaction was immediate. "There are as many traders in this world as there are fish in the sea. That's not what we're looking for." He took a defensive stance.
"Then who are you looking for?" I asked, even though I knew exactly what his intentions were.
"Let's just say that I'm personally on the lookout for a business partner."
