RELATIONSHIPS

If you want a friend on Wall Street, get a dog.

Life's too short to hang out with people who are not resourceful.

Talking about money isn't rude. Financial secrecy is what's actually hurting people.

The most important financial decision you will ever make is who you marry. Seriously. More than any stock pick or career move.

The best investment you can make is in relationships. Everything else follows from trust.

Relationships are the ultimate asset. Every deal I've ever done started with a conversation.

We don't do hostile takeovers. In Asia, relationships are everything. You earn trust before you earn returns.

The best recruiters are relationship builders, not resume scanners. We built Gem to help them nurture talent pipelines the way sales teams nurture leads.

Business is about trust, and trust takes a long time to build.

Build relationships first. Business follows naturally.

In business and football, it's all about relationships.

Relationships are the most valuable asset in business. Everything else depreciates.

We invest for the long term. We are not traders. We are strategic investors who build relationships.

Toyota did not choose me because I was the biggest. They chose me because I was the most reliable.

Business is just about people.

Money is easy to find. Access and trust are the hard parts.
