Hi jsansi,
Thanks for the reminder about Adnan Khashoggi! I hadn't thought about him for a while...
A super deal-maker...
But, I have to say, I think he was in a good position in that he was well-connected among the Saudi royals. I just read that his father was the personal medical doctor to the Saudi king... So I suspect he probably grew up around the Saudi royal family (without being a royal himself)...
But... it's good to think about deal-making!
Maybe I can post more about deal-making soon (I do things "behind the scenes" I don't always mention here - as is true for many of us!)...
Best wishes,
Dien
