The idea that man is a social being has long become a truism. But this has not lost its significance. It is known that there is always an energetic person who consolidates this very society around him. Each social group has a leader. Each team has a boss. Each company has a toastmaster. Each gang has a chieftain. Today, when information technologies have changed the world around us, people have emerged who want to be equal to and imitate their habits. The register of such persons contains the name of Mark Rafailovich Garber.
From psychiatry to the market
Human nature is complex and diverse. A person with certain abilities is often said to be talented in many ways. He writes poetry, composes music, sharpens balusters, repairs cars. Indeed, this feature is confirmed by many personal examples. Biography of Mark Garber is replete with a wide variety of short stories and plots. Dr. Garber was born on January 2, 1958 in an intelligent family. Parents lived in Moscow and were engaged in scientific work. They could not even imagine that their beloved child would become addicted to whiskey and drinking singing in an independent life.
At school, Marik studied decently. When it came time to choose a profession, he decided to get a medical education. From an early age, the boy demonstrated observation and tenacious memory. These qualities helped him successfully complete a course at the institute and obtain the qualification of a psychiatrist. Dr. Garber has been very productive in his specialty for ten years. The career of an attending physician was going well. The acquired practice allowed him to see and appreciate the world around him without a touch of romance and naivety. At the moment when perestroika began in the Soviet Union, he already predicted exactly what processes of this kind would lead to.
It is interesting to note that even people far from psychiatry rated the behavior of those in power as a severe form of schizophrenia. But life went on, and Dr. Garber plunged headlong into the fascinating cycle of creativity and commerce. The first large-scale project outside the walls of a psychiatric hospital was the "Fund for Social Inventions of the USSR". Mark Rafailovich, for all his insight, did not allow the thought that a great Power could cease to exist. However, the story rolled along its own mysterious trajectory. The famous and sad putsch in August 1991 put a fat, albeit intermediate, point in this process.
Attempts to put into practice the achievements of Soviet science and engineering in the field of medicine and health care were in vain. The system turned out to be completely immune to innovation. When the country's economy switched to market principles of functioning, Mark Garber got the opportunity to use his knowledge and experience in various fields of activity. The easiest way to make money at that time was trading. More precisely, speculation, for which, under the Soviet regime, they were sentenced to imprisonment. The main thing in this business is to choose a highly marginal product. It is easier to supply tomato paste to the market, but it is more profitable to trade in planes.
How habits are formed
It is interesting to note that an experienced psychiatrist Garber, doing business, fell for the bait of his internal attitudes. When various projects were discussed for implementation in practice, then at one fine moment a decision was made to create a recording studio. Mark Rafailovich made not only a material contribution to this business, but also part of his nature, if I may say so. I must say that he is friends with the famous poet and singer Andrei Makarevich. This friendship explains a lot. After all, it is no accident that the proverb lives among the people that with whom you will lead, from that you will gain.
But a recording studio, by definition, is not a commercial success. We can say that this is an activity for the soul. On certain days, in a certain place, a company of people who are close in spirit and life credo gathers to taste whiskey and sing songs. It is clear that this is not a commercial event, but for Mark Rafailovich it serves as a stimulator for generating ideas. He quickly realized that with vodka, thoughts of one quality come, and with whiskey, a completely different one. It was in such a situation that the idea was born to write a book, which was named "Entertaining Addiction Treatment".
The book was written in collaboration with Andrey Makarevich. The authors are silent about what drinks and how much was drunk in the process of working on the work. At the next stage of cooperation, the book "Men's Cooking" was published. Not to say that she was in great demand, but she attracted the attention of a female audience. When busy in commercial activities, it is very important to allocate time for rest and restoration of energy potential. It so happened that Mark Garber took part in a trip around the world. Visited the legendary Easter Island. I spent time in a pleasant company.
This moment
To date, Mark Rafailovich Garber is engaged in several large-scale projects. The unstable situation in the world market dictates its own terms. Cooperation has been established with partners from the United States and the European Union. The sanctions, which are talked about so much on TV, do not affect business. The main activity is the search for promising projects and investment. Of course, you have to act carefully, since the risks in this area of business are very high. Sometimes you have to meet with Makarevich to relieve accumulated stress.
Mark Rafailovich does not particularly spread about his personal life, but he also does not make a secret out of it. It so happened that he got married only once. Apparently fate rewarded him for his easy character. The husband and wife met a long time ago. During the period that has elapsed since that moment, two sons have grown up in the family. The senior works for a large Russian company. The youngest is educated at Cambridge.
