And it's hard for us to be involved when we don't have control. I leave feeling oddly relieved. I fly to South Korea to sit down with two Korean billionaires, heads of midsize family businesses. We meet at 8 PM in a room salon, a subterranean club with private rooms lined with plush sofas. When the astonishingly young billionaires arrive, we all bow and swap business cards.
Some attractive women bring in whiskey and pour out shots.
We drain our glasses, and my eyes water. Everyone except me lights cigarettes. I take a deep breath. I notice that the women haven't left. The one sitting next to me is wearing a cute white tennis outfit.
