ABOUT 7 YEARS AGO %,&INN I WAS EDITOR OF PORSCKKRAMA I ~:~ROTE A STATEME~T THAT IS EVEN MORE TRUE TODAY. IT l’f~ SOMETHING ABOUT HOT TO BELIEVE T.~{E ADS IN N~4 YORKER ARD FORTUNE MAGS ~BOUT BEING AN INDIVIDUALISTIC ABOVE P~R PERSON JUST BECAUSE YOU Ol~q~ ’A PORSCHE. I I~ LINE OF WORK I FIND TIL~ ANYONE CAN BUY ONE. THE UNIQUE A~ID INDIVIDUAL PART COMES AgTER YOU BUY IT AND DECIDE WIIAT TO DO ~ITH IT. DURING TIIIS LOL’G SUMI~I~R %~E DO~’T HAVE THE MA~a~3TH COMPETITION AND IT WOULD BE A GOOD CHAi~C;’ TO DI~COV~ THE P~SCH~ CLUB..
