I believe in incentivizing people. If you can incentivize people in anything whether it's in politics in life in spirituality in business just take care of folks. Incentivize them and all of a sudden it's amazing the difference that you'll see.
My parents were amazing people who had no business being together - and they knew it.

The business that people do in LA on the social level is amazing. You go to a restaurant bump into this guy or that guy. The next day you get a call and they want you in their movie.
Of course this is Vegas and it is the melting pot for all over the world but people from all over the world know Donny and Marie. It is amazing.
