They pay me for my time, and I give them first pick of things with the first charitable donations. Far less steroids. I would consider them closer to...a last chance, if you will? Again, I'm not sure how to explain it, and I'd rather appear ignorant than explain it wrong." A slightly easier smile.
"But I've invited you to dinner." A slight nudge to that.
