What would you name your boat if you had one?
I will never own one. I’m not the best swimmer and based on a cost/benefit analysis I cannot justify having a boat when I spend so few weekends away from the office. ☺ I’d rather make friends with people who have a boat – their boat’s name will probably be “Fishizzle my Nizzle”, or “The Unsinkable II” (i.e. the first one sank).
What job will you be terrible at?
Most jobs really, but most probably a boat salesman – refer above for explanation.
What is the most interesting place you’ve been and why?
I find most places I’ve visited overseas very interesting from a cultural point of view. The most interesting from my last time overseas (Hong Kong) is that ALL their scaffolding is merely bamboo tied together with small black pieces of rope – some of these scaffolding structures stretch at least 50 storeys high. I know, right!
What was the last picture you took with your phone?
Scary, I know, but it was taken last Saturday in Leon’s office. It was a schedule of the Burgundy developments and I needed it in order to determine if I should include the development proceeds in the 2020 or 2021 year of my cash flow forecast.:)
If animals could talk, which would be the rudest?
Donkeys… sometimes they can be real asses.
Would you rather fight King Kong or a T-Rex?
I’ve recently enrolled for boxing classes and have had at least 8 sessions to date. I’m pretty confident currently, so I’m sure I could take on both simultaneously… so I don’t have to pick one, the only thing I’d have to pick is a fight with both of them![/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][vc_separator type=”transparent” border_style=”” up=”40″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”full_width” text_align=”left” background_animation=”none” css_animation=”” el_id=”luigi”][vc_column][vc_separator type=”transparent” border_style=”” up=”40″][vc_row_inner row_type=”row” type=”full_width” use_row_as_full_screen_section_slide=”no” text_align=”left” css_animation=””][vc_column_inner width=”1/3″][vc_single_image image=”8416″ img_size=”full” qode_css_animation=””][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”2/3″][vc_column_text]Name: Luigi Brown
