Funeral networking
A very wealthy philanthropist died near my town and I am thinking of going to the funeral for some networking.. Just not certain what the most efficient way to identify the right folks to speak to is.
Any thoughts?
lol good one.

+1, my thoughts exactly haha
You're going to want to buy the darkest shade of charcoal suit you can find. Obviously, stay away from black ties as that's a big no-no in this industry and everybody at the funeral will know that you're a Noob, dark solid colors are appropriate for these kinds of situations.
Obviously know your technicals ("if they paid $20,000 for this funeral and he was buried with $500 in valuables, assume r=10%, what is the present value of a 75 year old man's funeral?), your fit questions ("why this funeral?" " where do you see your funeral down the road?"), be ready for some brainteasers of course ("how many caskets are in this graveyard?" "if there are three grave sites and two were vandalized, but you could only check one of them, how could you know which two were vandalized?"). And, in the end, just be genuine, humble, and convey the idea that you're the kind of guy future coworkers would want to attend funerals with.
I really hope this is a troll. Or you're a huge douchebag for doing this and I hope someone calls your bluff. Like you say the guy's name wrong and some drunk depressed dude f*cks u up.
Ahha rebel, that's unreal. I'm sitting here laughing out loud at 4:30, wow.
by far hilarious
Guys stfu, maybe the op was serious. Follow the steps below:
Start sobbing very loud in the middle of speeches and lean over the casket and say "Grandpa I wish I was there for you!"
That will get some heads turning and people meeting up with you afterwards. Of course, they wouldn't dare question your relationship with the old man. (If he has real grandchildren in attendance - very likely - then quickly stir up a story how you're the long lost grandson)
Don't forget to complain about being left out of the will too...
lmao
Come on, man. Don't sell your soul
Your networking strategy is dead on.
ASSHOLES
Someone went Monkey doo doo nuts on this thing...
rebel LOL
so at a funeral...better chance of getting laid or hired?
I dunno, how about just go for both?
I like the way this guy thinks
However: be respectful of other people's grief if you want to be entrusted with OTM. Funerals are social events and peope go for many reasons, many of them less honorable than trying to get a job (there's going to be a lot of people there to take a crack at the estate). But, if you're a sociopath you will definitely not get a job and could get your ass kicked
MAA, WHERE'S THE MEATLOAF!!!!
Hahahaha, yeah, I guess don't get caught being a sociopath...
Thanks all. I knew there would be some hilarious comments. This is quite frank actually. Truth be told; the LADY philanthropist was pretty old and in poor health. She was pretty stellar and very charitable. I see it this way: I need to be in a position of wealth and power so that I can contribute to the community in her place in years to come. A legal Robbin Hood of sorts... and w.r.t. the ladies.. they all love someone who puts others' needs in front of his own.
ask sophisticated questions like, how liquid are her kidneys, their out-of-body book value, and if there are any potential buyout offers in the pharmaceutical black market. just do your heathcare research and you'll be fine. good luck!
