In Vegas staying at the Wynn. This trip prompted a couple of random thoughts:

Flew Virgin America. It’s actually a pretty great airline. Their employees are shockingly friendly. The flight attendants in addition to being friendly, have this really upbeat attitude. They sound excited to be flying on a VA plane, and it rubs off. The colors make it seem like you’re in a club and you can text other seats to flirt with people, bother co-workers you’re traveling with, etc. All-in-all, a very different experience from dealing with disgruntled traditional airline employees, crappy planes, and late flights. But having said all that, I don’t get how anyone makes money flying airplanes. Here’s one industry that could use a little collusion. What other industry goes into bankruptcy en masse every few years?

The Wynn hotel is sweet. It’s across the street from Trump’s new gold-laden tower. Anyway, whenever I stay in a nice hotel, here the Wynn, when I was with P&G, the W’s, I would always have the same thought. “Man. I wish I could live here.” And I still think that. I’m shocked that someone hasn’t built one of these in the NY’s, LA’s, SF’s, etc and sold some units and rented them out. A lot of 20-somethings I know would be happy to have a small space that had a nice bathroom, and an efficient use of space. Young people also all love living with each other. Madness ensues. I feel like all of us, in some way, wish for freshman year of college all over again. Anyway, I think that business idea would kill. So if there are any rich people in Asia or the Middle East with a ton of extra money since you’re not investing in US treasuries any more would like me to build that for them, just say the word. Oh, and sovereign wealth funds are also open to apply to work with me.
