I have just received an offer I just couldn't refuse, that's if I was a complete idiot with money to burn.
A lady with a strong NewYork accent has just offered me a place in the Stanford Who's Who.
I was asked for my views on the industry I am in which is Film and TV production, how many years I have been in the business and some of my achievements to date. I have been in the business for too long to admit to, so I kept it short and sweet.
And after a few "Really's" and "Wows" and "Fantastics" I was informed that I would be enrolled into the lists of the Stanford Who's Who post haste as I obviously was a prime candidate for this austere tomb. This dear American lady made me feel very very important. What could I say at this juncture but those immortal words "How much?"
This is where it became very interesting. I was to be honored with a platinum life membership along with an inscribed rose wood plaque, and an entry into the book and the website, and all it would cost me was US$800.00. plus monthly payments of US$90.00. There was also a gold membership for a period of 5 years, but as I was informed "The platinum was best fitted to my achievements"
I am so glad that I am now old enough and wise enough (because I have been stung many times ) to research anything that involves parting with my hard earned dollars. I ended the phone call with the old chestnut line. "Leave it with me, give me your number and I will get back to you once my assistant has done some research into your company. The reply was predictable. "We have a publishing deadline to keep, so I will call you tomorrow" That's when I hung up . I do hope you do the same when this lady calls on you..
