But it's apparently "horrifying, absolutely horrifying":

  Finance Conference Outraged After Billionaire Ken Fisher Shocks
  With Crude Sexual Remarks

  ... billionaire Ken Fisher - whose firm manages more than $100
  billion (for now, at least) - shocked attendees when he compared
  gaining a client's trust to "trying to get into a girl's pants,"

  ... Doubling down on his jarring remarks, Fisher also noted that
  executives who were "not comfortable talking about genitalia should
  not be in the financial industry."

  ... Fisher referenced dropping acid and likened his employees to
  cattle who needed to be branded.

  Alex Chalekian, founder of Lake Avenue Financial, posted a video on
  Twitter calling the remarks “absolutely horrifying.”

  Chalekian conceded that "the way the summit is set up, it’s meant
  to allow many of these icons in the industry to be comfortable, and
  talk among their peers" before continuing by saying "But I just had
  to open up and mention how disgusted I am."

  Sonya Dreizler, a consultant who attended most of the fireside
  chat, added: "Since this content is not about business issues, I’m
  choosing to break that code of privacy to confirm that the comments
  from the stage indeed were outrageous.”

  ... After reports of Fisher's comments made their rounds on
  Wednesday, Fisher followed up by telling Bloomberg: “I have given a
  lot of talks, a lot of times, in a lot of places and said stuff
  like this and never gotten that type of response. Mostly the
  audience understands what I am saying.”

  “I regret I accepted that speech invitation because it was kind of
  a pain in the neck,” he continued. "I wonder if anybody will be
  candid at one of these Tiburon events again.”

  ... when asked what he would have done differently in his life, he
  said he would “have more sex.”
