We meet at the Sony Plaza at 550 Madison (between 55th and 56th) every first Saturday of the month at 2pm.

You may be smart and well educated, have a high paying job, a custom suit and an expensive watch but beautiful women don't care unless you carry yourself with confidence, dress well, make a good first impression, hold a conve …
