Newport Boat Show

Rosemary

Senior Insider
...is this weekend. Attendance is way down. Parking is easy as pie. We were told several big name boat manufacturers who usually show their entire line are not here. Our friend Vinny, who works for a company that finances big boats, says they have no business. Zip. Hats off to the brokers-they were chatting up a storm and smiling. And the weather is perfect, right down to a spectacular sunset.
 
Glad you enjoyed the outing but I feel for the show people who sponsored the event with the down turn in business. Times are tough for many industries.
 
Same here, Amy. Lots of brokers talking about changing industries, positions, but at a loss of where to to go. Disheartening.

I'm a mortgage loan officer, my counterparts on the broker side are saying the same thing. The only thing saving me is I work for a large regional bank.
