But the idea of approaching them with my venture could not be taken seriously. The images of Gitelson and of Gussie crossed my mind almost simultaneously. I rejected them both. Gitelson and I might, perhaps, start manufacturing on a small scale, leaving Chaikin out. But Chaikin was the very soul of my project. Without him there was no life to it. Besides, where was he, Gitelson?
"I know you won't, but I can't. Honest." "But, I tell you, I won't say a word to anybody. Strike me dumb if I do!" "I can't, Mrs. Chaikin," I besought her "Don't bother," her husband put in, good-naturedly. "A woman will be a woman." I went on to describe the "wonders" that the firm of Chaikin & Levinsky would do. Mrs. Chaikin's eyes glittered. I held her spellbound.
Chaikin's Volatility Indicator, a popular timing tool, seems to couple market tops with increased indecisiveness and nervousness, i.e., with enhanced volatility. Market bottoms boring, cyclical, affairs usually suppress volatility. Interestingly, Chaikin himself disputes this interpretation.
In the course of our many discussions it had often happened that after overruling me with great finality she would end by yielding to my point of view. I hoped this would be the case in the present instance "Don't be so hasty, Mrs. Chaikin," I said, with a smile. "Wait till you know a little more about the arrangement."
Well, when Chaikin gets something started and there is nobody to spoil it, it's sure to go well. Isn't it?" "Chaikin is certainly a fine designer," I replied, noncommittally, wondering what she was driving at "A fine designer! Is that all?" she protested, with exquisite sarcasm. "And who fixed up this whole business? styles got the business started and gave it the name it has?
Indeed, it's my money that's going to be invested. Do you blame me for being careful, at the beginning at least? I neither want Mr. Chaikin to risk his job nor myself to risk big money." "But you haven't even told me how much you can put in," she blurted out, excitedly. "As much as will be necessary. But what's the use dumping a big lot at once?
Many a big business has failed, while firms who start in a modest way have worked themselves up. Why should Mr. Chaikin begin by risking his position? Why? Why?" The long and short of it was that Mrs.
My heart warmed to Chaikin and his family. "I shall be faithful to them," I vowed inwardly. "They have been so good to me. We must be absolutely devoted to each other. Their house, too, will be like a home to me. Oh, it is so sweet to have friends, real friends." It was close upon 10 o'clock when I reached the Chaikins' flat in Harlem.
I had barely closed the door behind me when I whipped out the check, and, dangling it before Mrs. Chaikin, I said, radiantly: "Good evening. Guess what it is!" "The check you expected from your uncle or cousin or whatever he is to you. Is it?" she conjectured "No. It's something far better," I replied. "It's a check from the Western company, and for the full amount, too."
Who will take care of your business when you go traveling?" "Oh, I'll manage it somehow," I answered, making an effort to be pleasant. "Chaikin was scarcely ever in the shop, anyhow." I TRAVELED quite often, sometimes staying away from New York for two or three days, but more frequently for only one day. On one occasion, however, I was detained on the road for five days in succession.
