    Not alone! Im a CA also. Finance Manager for an infrastructure asset. I know exactly what you mean about being jaded about corporates. Knowing about vals for unlisted is also eye opening

    I work for an international spy agency. I have been employed there for 15 years. My job atm is to infiltrate various sites to detect organisations who intend to harm certain governments.

    After examining these sites and establishing identities, I then work with authorities to track down the perpertrators and "hand them over".

    Don't be alarmed. The majority of people out there are clean and thankfully my work is nearly done.

    Shortly I will move onto another assignment which I cant discuss. You'd probably wouldn't believe it anyway.

    It's a tough job. Long hours. Heaps of driving. Affairs with cleaners........its nothing like the 007 movies lol, You got to take what you got to take to get the job done.

    Fast food at the end of the shift. I smoke the tyres through the Maccas drive thru to indicate I'm knocking off (it gets picked up by admin through satellite imagery).

    Well , that's about it.

    I didn't realise that the Druie is regarded as international these days.

    Which is how your job relates to the thread topic about your interest in investing I guess.

    It will be interesting to refer back to this thread in 5-10 years fellow men and women :)
