This Brian Kistler guy is like 56 years old. He has a good track record in the financial services industry; if you measure it only by the $$ assets under management.
I think he has been so used to running people over to get to the $$ that he looks at us as just a means to an end. He apparently has a magnanimous personality. I wonder if Jared got all googly-eyed over Brian's pitch that he lost sight of his plan.
It would be interesting to see if they met in church, that'd be the kicker.
