Metcircle Networking LLC

METCIRCLE NETWORKING LLC

Metcircletm Networking LLC is a networking organization founded by Preston Tsao in 1991 for ultra-high-net-worth families.  Based in New York City, the group has approximately 100 member families, located primarily in the New York metropolitan area but also in Florida, Illinois, Texas and around the world.  Recently, Metcircle formed subgroups in Chicago, Los Angeles and Washington DC.

We meet privately several times a month, and our meetings are either –

·    Inter-family networking meetings on subjects like asset allocation, favorite investment managers or family office governance.

·    Fund presentation meetings with prominent fund managers like Jim Simons, Henry Kravis or Izzy Englander or with emerging new managers.

·    Thought-leader presentations by experts like William McDonough, former Chairman of the New York Federal Reserve, or Stephen Friedman, former CEO of Goldman Sachs.

·    Special topic meetings on subjects like distress investing, credit default swaps, private equity, municipal bonds, real estate, the credit crisis or emerging markets.  Some of these meetings will feature outside experts, but other meetings will be members-only, especially where there is extensive expertise among members, as is the case with hedge funds, real estate and private equity.

So that out-of-town members may participate, conference call lines are set up for important meetings.

In addition to the meetings, we maintain both a documents-posting site and a website, both password protected.  At the posting site, audios and PowerPoints of important meetings are archived.

Overall the tone of our meetings is relaxed and informal, except with respect to confidentiality, which is strictly observed.

In addition to the Metcircle, Preston Tsao practiced law with Chadbourne & Parke, was a money manager with Schroders and was a healthcare investment banker.

He is a graduate of Princeton University AB 1967 and Columbia Law School JD 1970.

Since one is not bound by fixed working hours, they can schedule their work at the time when they feel most productive and convenient to them. Women & Men benefit a lot from this concept of work since they can balance their home and work perfectly. People mostly find that in this situation, their productivity is higher and stress levels lower. Those who like isolation and a tranquil work environment also tend to prefer this way of working. Today, with the kind of communication networks available, millions of people worldwide are considering this option.

    Women & Men who want to be independent but cannot afford to leave their responsibilities at home aside will benefit a lot from this concept of work. It makes it easier to maintain a healthy balance between home and work. The family doesn't get neglected and you can get your work done too. You can thus effectively juggle home responsibilities with your career. Working from home is definitely a viable option but it also needs a lot of hard work and discipline.

In this job you don't require any degree or qualifications. You only have to know how to take care of children. Parents are happy to pay handsome salary and you can also earn a lot without putting too much of an effort.

    Nursery

If given proper time and efforts nursery business can flourish very well and you will earn handsomely. But just as all jobs establishing it will be a bit difficult but the end results are outstanding.
