What I Learned from “The Expendables”

What I Learned from “The Expendables”

By Nina Kaufman, Esq.

Sylvester Stallone’s latest opus, The Expendables, was released in movie theaters this past weekend, and I have to confess that I’ve been dying to see it.  Bash-em-up-smash-em-up films are a kind of guilty pleasure for me.  Van Damme, Stallone, Schwartzenegger, Statham, Li, Willis–many of the actors in the film fill my list.  And as long as they stick honorably to the genre of men fighting men or Evil (and not using women as pawns or sex objects), I’ll happily plunk down my $13 and sit for 2 hours mindlessly munching popcorn. The Expendables didn’t disappoint.  As John Notle on BigHollywood.com points out, it’s classic B-movie fare.  It wasn’t just the simplistic plot:  good-guy-misfits take-down-bad-third-world-dictators-and-their-U.S.-Government-puppeteers.  It wasn’t just that it was rife with exceptionally muscled men over the age of 40 (my demographic) playing action heroes.  (Nu? Should I turn up my nose up at eye candy?).  It wasn’t just that every once in a whole, the camera caught Stallone with his dark eyebrows and goatee looking like an older Robert Downey Jr. in Ironman (yes, another guilty pleasure; bought the soundtrack,…

Flying solo doesn’t have to mean going it alone.

I’m Nina Kaufman.

I know first-hand that running a knowledge-based service business has unique challenges. It’s so much easier when you have an advocate in your corner. Over the past 25 years, I’ve worked with thousands of New York business professionals who want a legal advisor to guide and support them as they navigate the business world.

With wide-ranging experience as a business attorney, strategist, and media authority, I bring the added power of a business lens to the legal issues my clients are facing.

And because I’ve been a business owner myself, I’ve lived through the soaring highs and devastating lows – like when my first law firm failed. So I understand what’s involved to serve great clients, detect business risks early and build a true legacy.

I can’t get those 12 years back. That’s why I have made it my mission to ensure that business professionals like you can become wise and discerning leaders, build a solid business, and live your best life.
