Mark S says: " Perhaps a literary type is a bad example for Manhattan
worldliness in this
day and age. Why not use a Wall Streeter or consultant? I'll bet that the
financier is more likely to be multilingual and culturally aware than the
writer and has traveled more widely, on both business trips and vacations."

This is pure romantic wishful thinking about wall streeters .Most of them
tend to be cultural ignoramuses of severe proportions. Actually very few speak
foreign languages and maybe about less than 10 % of the Wall St labor force
deal with foreign operations.Not being interested in any thing but their
myopic job interests, they are definitely extremely provincial types lacking in
elementary "worldliness"
I'll take any "literary type" over a wall- streeter any time.
