I quickly learned that you had to work to make money. Then came McDonald's (the 3rd in Suffolk County) no air-conditioning; you swallowed a few salt tablets if the temperature got near 100. I worked my way up to night manager.I joined United States Trust Company of New York in 1964. I started out in Operations and within a few years moved to Trust Administration. I was dealing directly with clients. Computers were quickly being introduced to the business world. The company placed a standalone computer with a floppy disk on our floor for people to experiment with. It quickly captured my attention and I found I was coming in earlier and earlier just to fiddle around with the new machine. Within a few years I became the division's computer liaison. The title of Trust Administrator changed to Family Wealth Manager. My customers then included the Secretary of State of the United States \u0026amp; New York State, the Ambassador to France, the head of the CIA and one of the wealthiest families in the world at that time, according to Forbes Magazine.After retiring I worked full time for a number of years at Mercy Haven Inc. Prior to that I was on their board for 14 years as a Founding Director, Treasurer and Board Chair. I also spent a year as a consultant with Deutsche Bank. I'm currently involved with the Community Computer Connections Program and am the database manager for Friends of Connetquot.","brand":"Palmetto Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50917386518802,"sku":"9798822961036","price":11.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/4771\/8930\/files\/img_0de8954c-4b1c-4633-9c88-1e51d35cfe3c.jpg?v=1751969531","url":"https:\/\/surprise-castle.myshopify.com\/products\/your-money-things-you-may-not-have-thought-of-9798822961036","provider":"Surprise Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
