What did Euro do for work?

William/Euro worked in Tokyo for an American company, currency trader if I remember correctly, but I donīt know more.

This is now a quarter century away, as I met him in Tokyo in 2000, while travelling the world when moving (back) then from New Zealand to Germany. My partner and me had dinner with him in a tiny restaurant in Tokyo, one of the best meals in my life.

Before I knew him only from this board, to be knowledgeable, witty and funny --- and never ever offending or attacking anybody. Same in person. One of the nicest person I ever met, a guy you want to have as a friend and mentor. Died just a few years later, far too young.
