NEVER make a person a priority when all you are to another is an option.

About Me


My name is Constantine, but most friends call me by one of my middle names, Alex, or, my nickname which is "BEAR" :)
I'm a private investor and active in philanthropic causes. I'm originally from Greenwich, Connecticut, currently residing in Chicago, soon to be relocated in Sunny Isles Beach, FL.
I have a presence in Fiji, New York City and in the summertime, on Long Island. Two places on the planet are nearest and dearest to me, my beloved and storied Fiji and the depths and breadths of Hawaii.
Affable personality who's very fun-loving with a great and devilish sense of humor. People who take themselves too seriously are excellent targets for practical jokes I think.
I am very much into good, healthy, living...into getting seriously fit, pleasure travel, experimental dining.
I love all the arts and enjoy quality and fun nightlife, as well as quiet times at home. I enjoy spending time in the sun and value the beauty of such an environment.
I have a deep appreciation for the male form and deeply value people who work hard towards attaining their best and peak physical goals. I find that people who achieve their personal best are truly inspiring to me and I am further motivated to work hard to get to where I too want to be.
To live life on your own terms, as I see it, is truly a defining characteristic of success and the attainment of your life's dreams. Always, but ALWAYS, keep your feet on the ground and reach for the stars.

My Interests


Pleasure travel, I love exploring the globe, all the arts, fine dining, the occult, healthy living and all the good life offers. I love spending time in Hawaii and my precious and beloved Fiji as often as I can.
I also love the magical, living history and utter beauty of Italy, as I also love the electricity and elegance of Monaco. Both these places hold a very special place in my heart. Below are some pics of the fabled principality of Monaco against the backdrop of the Colosseum in Rome.
I love flying. I'm never more liberated and free than when I am at the controls of a plane and in the heavens. I love trying new things and experiences.

There must always exist a sense of balance. To take is fine, but to give back is a requirement in life.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Some personal insights.

"Genius and madness are separated by a very faint line."

"Living life on your own terms is a defining moment of success."

"We must free ourselves of the hope that the sea will ever rest. We must learn to sail in high winds."

"It is during our darkest moments that we must focus to see the light."

"Dream big, think big and become big."

Music:


Musical tastes vary and are varied. Not averse to any artistic expression. Music has the ability to alter my mood and touch my soul. What does music do for you?

Port Hercules in Monte Carlo, Monaco.

Movies:


Big mob pic fan, The Godfather Saga, Scarface with Paul Muni and Scarface with Pacino. Big Woody Allen fan. Best comedy, Small Time Crooks. Match Point was exceptionally well done I thought.
A very big fan of the TCM network as well; also a big fan of psychological thrillers and comedies.

Aerial shot of the Palace and a partial view of Port Hercules.

Television:


Little Britain and most of the Brit comedies. The Simpsons, Family Guy, as well as CNBC, CNN...news junkie here.

The Casino at night.

Books:


Wow, how do I answer this one? I read at least a few books a month. Big fan of biographies, architectural books, art; the list is seemingly endless. Power lies in knowledge.

Another shot of the Casino.

Heroes:


My father. He taught me the importance of what it means to give back after having been blessed with so much in life and my dear friend, Dr. Mathilde Krim, Ph.D., for her work at www.amfAR.org

You Are a "Don't Tread On Me" Libertarian
You distrust the government, are fiercely independent, and don't belong in either party.
Religion and politics should never mix, in your opinion... and you feel opressed by both.
You don't want the government to cramp your self made style. Or anyone else's for that matter.
You're proud to say that you're pro-choice on absolutely everything!
What's Your Political Persuasion?
