I am able to handle large sums of money.

The first time a balance has a comma in it, it reads as somebody else's — a clerical error you're waiting to have corrected.

Handling large amounts turns out to be less about arithmetic than about nerve. Not panicking. Not making a fast decision because a number is making you nervous. Sitting with it for a fortnight while nothing happens.

People who move real money are mostly unhurried. The skill on display is patience wearing a suit.

Whatever you're holding right now, you're already practising on it.
