      If you're paid up for a year, they probably will😂 In real life, a lot of single, uber wealthy men, live in hotels for years, because the hotel will just give them a personal concierge service, and do everything for them, because of the length of their tenancy - do their dry cleaning, take their car to the garage, pick up their kids from school etc etc. Guys like Mick Jagger lived in the Plaza in NY, for years because of those perks. I think Elton John lived in one of New York's top hotels for decades, even.

      I went backstage in the free and easy days of security at The BBC when my m8 who worked there simply vouched for me. I saw The Kelly Monteith Show with Lisa Goddard being rehearsed as we had a private room to the studio. It was AMAZING. He cracked a "joke" she laughed like a train. CUT!! and her face instantly froze. Then same again. Joke. She was in hysterics. CUT ! IMMEDIATELY went stoney-faced. That is when I knew in 1981.
