I am in Las Vegas today and it’s probably good that much of what happens here stays here. Every time I come here, I am immediately ready to leave. It’s just not one of my favorite places. I am speaking at the Sales Mastery Forum, a conference produced by Harris Hoopis who is one of the top agents in the Northwestern Mutal Life Insurance Company. Harry is rich in many ways and I suspect after I get to know him even better, I’ll find out how he is helping people in Chicago have more rich lives.

Before I come to a city to speak, I always like to find the names of people who are difference makers so I emailed several people who lived there before my trip. One person I contacted was a self-made entreprenuer who is known for flamboyant clothes and a flashy lifestyle. I asked her if she knew any REAL Rich People - people who were rich because they were making a difference, she replied with this:

Not in my crowd!!! If I do they are too subtle for me…also for Vegas.

It that’s true, it’s also sad. But perhaps the people who do make a difference here are so humble that they too believe…what happens in Vegas, Stays in Vegas.

Who was the person who made the statement for which this post is titled?  First correct answer will win a cheap and highly superficial prize!

One of my all time favorite Broadway shows Momma Mia is playing at the Mandalay Bay hotel where I am staying. If you ever get they chance, go see it, it’s truly one of the funniest shows I have ever seen. What’s your favorite Broadway play or musical and why?
