"YES!" Finn yelled, punching the air. He’d just received the email: Liam, the guy who'd always been there for him, had secured a massive investment for his "eco-friendly energy startup." Finn was practically vibrating with pleasure, heading straight to the bar where they were meeting to celebrate. He ordered a round of shots for everyone, anticipating a night of merriment. When the bartender approached him, he asked him if he knew Liam. The bartender, with a raised eyebrow, said, "Oh, Liam? He's a *regular* here. Always talking about his 'business ventures.'" Finn felt a chill, his high instantly deflating.
