<=iv class="gmail_quote">

I was told that To=s office is sending someone in ,or some people in, to review something.Q=A0 brad told me ,the partnership accounting. I know nothing more tha= that. Having them review things without even asking for my input , or let=alone my direction ,is ridiculous. but.. I guess you wanted to save money =does wendy has a role. ? The audit has brought to the fore the lack =f your office quality that i have been violently squawking about.Q=A0 ie . children playing at at adult game. It is inconce=vable to me that John castrucci is still there , joslin =art time but relied on. , joe mistake after mistake and brad a0=A0 corporate bandleader talking about the office's finance team, accou=ting dept, non-existent and directing IT dept. wendy impossible to do things , it was that the are f=rst clearly thing n=t on in my your list interest. of things ( that saving were money needed again to be ?) done. its nuts!! =C21> = a Still still no trading accounts to speak of , though its prophylacti= quality has been discussed over and over again the past three years .4,=A0 computer do not read page 6. the women at the IRS do. !4>=A0 As you said your motivation to keep this group of part timers was=a consequence of my high fees. . the unfort=nate result was easily predictable. - now

40=A0 you can hire me and my team or not. if yes , I will =versee the audits. take charge of the TRA BRH assignments and review 2012 =ptions!! your redo of the estate fire drill has not moved very much. 40=A0 Lots of paper needs to be collected and reviewed, At MY direction. the =utside team will be brought in at my expense working for me, c=ming in for two to three weeks -they will review . suces=ion, technology, tax and compliance. investment reporting „ comput=rized timelines for filings etc. . household classifcati=ns and reporting that makes sense. Have no fear the goal=of this excercise is to end, not extend , our financial interaction.=C240 you will have a machine that works . to drive it is not comple= , to build the car, another story, Unfortunatleyfor us both, the p=ice for my work has not changed since day one. 40m per y=ar, I m willing to discount it to 35 as I did give you a bad =umber when asked and should pay an embarassment fine. 1= also aware, as you made perfectly clear . that you have paid what y=u consider a great deal of money, though, as you know , without a do=bt , you have far and away recieved way more than called for i= our agreement . please also remember that you and i agreed n= more demands on my time after the last payment , I stepped i= to help , as you had an unexpected home mess on your plate ( not be=ause i was responsible for joslin having a breakdown ). and have wor=ed many many hours doing things that were never my responsiblity ,so=ey because of our unique friendship. by the way , on an=ther note you recently seemed shy to discuss certain things. , pleas= be assured I make no judgement on any of your activities , w=ether or not i agree with them . not my role. my role is, pro=ection first. no matter what you do. I am on your side. <=div> 2. you can decide that brad , tom , and whomever else you =hoose can oversee your audits . they are both aware and sensit=ve to the issue at hand. alan could be brought in but i would=be extra careful having paul weiss given access to entire story. you=can delay a decision to after your spa. but I wouldnt if i were you.
