Subscriber Sunflower1mdp Posted June 29, 2012 Subscriber Share Posted June 29, 2012 Thanks for posting Mich. I've been waiting to hear the outcome although I figured she'd be found guilty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Community Moderator mich40 Posted June 29, 2012 Author Community Moderator Share Posted June 29, 2012 Well....all I can say is that if he needs a new PA, my hubby is a fine upstanding accountant and we would be willing to relocate to Ireland.

Subscriber febottini Posted June 29, 2012 Subscriber Share Posted June 29, 2012 Adam talked to the press and fans when he left the court. By the way, very charming with this glasses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wahine Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 I figured that's how the ruling would come down...It's still really sad in the end. Personally, if she had done that to me, I would have beat her ass then had her arrested but...Adam has much more class than me. I think the thing that would have hurt me the most would be of course the money, but the thought of putting that much trust in someone that you are not married to, or a family member, that has to destroy you. My best friend and I are worlds apart, literally, I make sure everything is taken care of his home and he looks after my stuff as well. He is the only person that ever personally asked me to trust him and I don't even trust my husband, that was like leaping off a cliff, he is the only person in the world I trust or have EVER TRUSTED, and I spend half my time cleaning up his messes he leaves all over the country and the world. I don't mind though. I know anytime, I want or need anything he is there for me....guys and chicks that are married with children are not suppose to be best friends, it goes against everything, but that is how much both of us look at each other. The entire surf industry thinks I have an open marriage, LOL, I don't. But it's always fun knowing the truth that you have never done anything wrong while everyone guesses and assumes, that makes me a strong woman/wife/mother/daughter. Ilike to call it by what is and that is TRUST. And that really can't be bought, sold, bundled, it has to be given freely just like love. Yeah, I'd say its a good day for Mr. Clayton but I know it's still gotta hurt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subscriber Janette B Posted June 29, 2012 Subscriber Share Posted June 29, 2012 So glad he prevailed and I'll bet he's glad it's over - at least this stage of the ordeal is over anyway. I wonder if he will be able to recover any losses and it'll be interesting to see what sentence is handed down. Thanks for posting! I guess I should now go read the article, lol!

Subscriber febottini Posted June 29, 2012 Subscriber Share Posted June 29, 2012 I can perfectly understand Adam. I´ve already worked with a Brazilian rockstar for five years and he cheated me. The fact was we were best friends and our families were close to each other. And of course, I trusted in him. It´s a very hard situation and I have to confess it´s not easy to trust anyone again. I don´t know if Adam has a new PA, but I hope he finds a trustable person to work with. I´m available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subscriber Navaglo Posted June 30, 2012 Subscriber Share Posted June 30, 2012 Good help is hard to find. Stinks for Adam, you think you can trust someone, and they take from you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sigma957 Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 @Febbotini I trust you ] Anyhow, good idea is to have 2 personal assistants. One to doublecheck the other's work. And a 3rd person who is not a personal assistant that monitors what both do on that business side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
