I'm not normally that type, if I was only interested in them for their money I'd feel kind of lousy for using them. Of course, if they knew I was using them and didn't mind that might be a different story.

... oh, you meant 'use them' as an investment broker to manage my portfolio, not 'use them' 'use them' :D Nevermind then, carry on ;)

Well, would you? After all, their "lifestyle" might influence their investment recommendations, yes?

:sorry:

I think you are right to be cautious. As you point out, the lifestyle of most investment brokers is based on materialism and greed, which are pretty much opposed to the Gospel.

Unless they're being militant-in your face- activist about it, how would one know?

Right, I have never met any militant-in-your-face-activist gay investment brokers!

But how about ... non-militant-in-your-face-activist gay investment brokers? Would they not be more devious than simple militant-in-your-face-activist gay investment brokers?:confused:

That's my point.

Maybe look under his skirt?

Some have this thing called subtlety. it always them to show or state things in a non direct manner.

Maybe a wedding picture with another guy? Maybe some small piece of gay pride paraphernalia on his desk?

If I were to choose people based on sinlessness, I'd have very little to select from.

Maybe he doesn't know what that black blue and white flag means... maybe he thought it was just nice...

I don't think orientation would be on my mind in choosing a broker.

No, because he is gay, that means he must be promiscuous and a drug abuser. He would take my money and invest it in meth and male hookers!

If I were using an investment broker (which is unlikely, because I have $60 to my name), I suppose it would be nice to find one who is gay. At least we would have something interesting to talk about - because one would have to work very hard to get ahead while being openly gay in such a business, especially in Ohio. I'm sure they would have a good story, and hopefully would be a better person because of the strength they would have gained through their struggle!

If I could, I would only support minorities in every business. It is my right to choose who I go to, and who I give my money to, after all.
