I wish I had known Spanish when I flew for one of the wealthiest Mexican Americans businessmen in the country.

Not bad. Sure it's not Facebook money but it's pretty impressive.

Spent some time in Mexico. I really needed to learn Spanish and I have the stories to prove it.

Of course he gave me some Spanish but I wasn't going to use it. Not sure what I was saying or more importantly what I was volunteering myself to do.
