I had lunch this week with a long time friend who also happens to be a matrimonial attorney. At one point the conversation turned to business development and networking. He is a member of a certain networking group in which you attend weekly early meetings, keep track of member referrals etc. .

Within time, the conversation turned to Gotham. He had never heard of Gotham before so I began to explain our mantra, “what goes around comes around and it’s better to give than receive.” As I was talking he interrupted and said, “So. It’s one of those talkie groups?” Not understanding his question, I continued my explanation. When I finished he said to me, “Yup. It’s one of those talkie groups.”

I was disheartened that my friend didn’t understand Gotham’s core concepts. Do you?
