[QUOTE="Klaus, post: 16753706, member: 190070"] I have some cool "deal toys" a/k/a "tombstones" laying around the office. It is tradition that when you close a deal you get some sort of souvenir called a "deal toy" or "tombstone." The production of these is a huge business although it is dying out from what it once was. I know I have a giant model airplane from a fleet of planes that we financed and also a baseball bat made from trees harvested from a tract of forestland that we financed. No expense is spared and there is a competition to come up with the most creative tombstone imaginable. A finance guys career can be measured by his tombstones. If you go to the office of someone at a PE firm or a large bank they will have hundreds of these in a case. At my old firm we had an entire room dedicated to these. I do not keep them anymore unless they are super cool. Here are some examples: [IMG]https://dealtoys.altrum.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2021/01/178439-Parts-Authority-PROD1-768x768.png[/IMG] [IMG]https://dealtoys.altrum.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2021/01/177556-IntraFI-Prod1-768x768.png[/IMG] [IMG]https://dealtoys.altrum.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2020/03/163721-cellphone-iphone-deal-toy-768x768.png[/IMG][IMG]https://dealtoys.altrum.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2020/03/142590-stone-and-statue-deal-toy-768x768.png[/IMG][IMG]https://dealtoys.altrum.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2020/03/149095-wind-turbine-boralex-deal-toy-768x768.png[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
