Helen is a lighthouse illuminating the way through stormy and troubled seas. She is a rarity in our industry.

Helen typically says, "GREAT Pack by the way!" What she really meant was: "Your pack is very comprehensive, all MUST information is present, it does not include too much information, your comparables are appropriately done, and you've included the MOST IMPORTANT executive summary."

Helen typically says, "I guess, I'm always looking for EXITS". What she really meant was: "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Nulla elit est, pellentesque vitae maximus accumsan, luctus nec odio. Aliquam auctor nibh lectus, eget sagittis justo sollicitudin non. Pellentesque aliquet hendrerit purus, ut gravida tortor aliquam at. Etiam scelerisque tristique erat. "

Helen typically says, "on the NUMBERS basis, the NUMBERS look really good." What she really meant was: "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Nulla elit est, pellentesque vitae maximus accumsan, luctus nec odio. Aliquam auctor nibh lectus, eget sagittis justo sollicitudin non. Pellentesque aliquet hendrerit purus, ut gravida tortor aliquam at. Etiam scelerisque tristique erat. "

Helen typically says, "That's great! You've got some SKIN IN THE GAME." What she really meant was, "You want a share in the benefits so you are sharing with the risks as well. You understand the balance of incentives and disincentives and believe that you should be penalized if something for which you are responsible for goes wrong."

Wherever Helen goes, she always talks about "RED FLAGS". This may mean differently. So what does she mean?
