Chuzz, Hi!!! RE: Warren Buffet on honesty in earnings: Just got finished writing William B. Michaels on deception....The link you sent is a reminder to me of an error I made back in the Fall of 97....I trusted Haggerty of WDC...He burnt me badly....But, the lesson I learned was one I will always remember as a benefit....In the long term it was the best thing that ever happened to me...I left all the others I owned and went over to more and more DELL...why?? I decided I didn't want to risk trusting anyone else when I had so much faith in DELL and the management...sure, this takes on a lack of diversification...but, I feel comfortable knowing who controls my investment... Thanks for the link.... Best, Kemble

Fascinating...have to go to medical school?................Strong Economy Leads to Butler Boom Associated Press Online - March 14, 1999 14:32 By AMY GEIER Associated Press Writer COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) - Eleven bathrooms, five bedrooms, four fireplaces, an elevator, and a pool. Deborah Eaton takes care of it all. But don't call her a butler. Ms. Eaton is among the growing ranks of household managers, as they prefer to be known. The 47-year-old mother of three had been working in sales and customer service for nine years, and was unhappy sitting in a cubicle all day. When she saw a want ad for a house manager, something clicked, she said. "It's a good outlet for all the things I love to do," Ms. Eaton said. "I love organization; I like working on my own, and I like caring for a house." Today she works in a 15,000-square-foot home owned by a suburban Columbus CEO whose name she discreetly withholds. She buys groceries, cleans, cares for animals and supervises a nanny and gardener. With a booming economy, more people are buying sprawling homes and hiring others to take care of them, according to those who make a business of meeting that need. They say a household manager can earn $25,000 to $100,000, depending on their duties, which can range from running a household alone to supervising a household staff. Many people are buying large homes for the first time and filling them with expensive rugs and china that they don't know how to properly care for, said Gay Metz, placement consultant for the Professional Domestic Services in Columbus. The placement service is part of the Professional Domestic Institute, where Ms. Eaton trained. In five-week sessions that cost $4,500, students learn all aspects of running an expensive household, including caring for antiques and art work, shopping for food and home accessories, planning and serving meals and parties, managing a financial budget and supervising other staff. Students also can participate in workshops to learn formal dining skills - such as which fork goes where - and how to plan creative parties. There's a three-hour session on improving ironing techniques. The Institute was founded in 1995 by Carol Scudere, who has worked as a professional household manager and consultant. Students use Ms. Scudere's own home as a classroom. She said it's important for students to learn to handle fine furnishings similar to what they'll encounter in employers' homes. A former self-employed interior designer, Ms. Scudere, 52, gets to spend company money scouring antique shops and estate sales for $3,000 Irish linens, African candlesticks and silver tea sets. Then she takes them home and lets trainees handle them. She also has about 500 cookbooks and three freezers to teach students gourmet cooking and serving techniques. The Institute is the country's second such school, after Denver-based Starkey International. Founded in 1981, Starkey trains about 60 people a year; the average student is 45 years old and college-educated, embarking on a second career. Their employers make about $200,000 a year and are usually top-level executives and CEOs. Ms. Starkey said the household managers are a sign of changing times. She said people recognize that they can't hire illegal immigrants to serve as household staff anymore. They need people familiar with the culture, Ms. Starkey said, who are technologically trained to deal with "smart" houses and able to adhere to creating low-fat diets. Students who receive training to deal with expectations of the wealthy often get along better with employers, Ms. Scudere said. Ms. Eaton has established a trusting relationship with her employer. And she's glad to be out of that cubicle. "It's a beautiful environment to work in. Just walking into that home every day is a perk."
