害羞草研究所淣o two days are the same,害羞草研究所� he says of why he害羞草研究所檚 stayed in the industry so long. 害羞草研究所淚t doesn害羞草研究所檛 matter the brand, or the situation. It害羞草研究所檚 just that you害羞草研究所檙e always dealing with people, and you害羞草研究所檙e changing people害羞草研究所檚 lives. You害羞草研究所檙e providing one of the biggest purchases in their life, and I like being a part of that.害羞草研究所�

Despite admitting to being a bit of a workaholic, Tanner makes time to enjoy the many amenities in the Okanagan. An avid golfer, he also spends much of his leisure time with his wife and their three dogs.

害羞草研究所淲e take them paddle boarding. My wife害羞草研究所檚 better than I am, but we get out a few times a month,害羞草研究所� he says, laughing. 害羞草研究所淚 like to spend as much time on the lake as possible.害羞草研究所�

The pair also makes a point of travelling when they have the chance.

害羞草研究所淓very couple of years we try to do something that害羞草研究所檚 really out there,害羞草研究所� says Tanner. 害羞草研究所淲e went to South Africa in 2016, and Dubai in 2018. Dubai was just absolutely incredible. It害羞草研究所檚 hard to put into words. Everything is so opulent. We went to one of the biggest mosques in the world, and it was built with marble and 24-karat gold, and it害羞草研究所檚 just so amazing and beautiful, and so different.害羞草研究所�

The 7 Sins

envy:

Whose shoes would you like to walk in?

Tom Brady. He害羞草研究所檚 a winner. The greatest quarterback of all time. And what害羞草研究所檚 more impressive is he害羞草研究所檚 been able to be at the top of his game for two decades. He was an underdog when he entered the NFL and has been able to overcome any and all obstacles. He害羞草研究所檚 evolved to succeed in today害羞草研究所檚 game, and he害羞草研究所檚 also one of the greatest leaders in the sport.

gluttony:

What is the food you could eat over and over again?

Pizza. I grew up in a small town, and I worked at a mom-and-pop pizza place while going to school. We used to experiment with all sorts of ingredients and would come up with some of the best (and worst) recipes. It is definitely my guilty pleasure food.

greed:

You害羞草研究所檙e given $1 million that you have to spend selfishly. What would you spend it on?

I would take my wife on a lavish holiday. There is so much of the world we have not seen, so I would want to experience some of the amazing sites this world has to offer. If there was any left over, I害羞草研究所檇 buy a classic Land Rover Defender.

wrath:

Pet peeves?

Bad service.

sloth:

Where would you spend a long time doing nothing?

Here. There害羞草研究所檚 so much to do in the Okanagan Valley, between the beaches, parks, lake, mountains, etc. I have three dogs and the only thing I need more of is time to 害羞草研究所渄o nothing害羞草研究所� with them.

pride:

What is the one thing you害羞草研究所檙e secretly proud of?

My mom. She is the most powerful woman I have ever met. She is my inspiration.

lust:

What makes your heart beat faster?

I know it害羞草研究所檚 clich茅, but my wife. She is the perfect combination of sexy and sophisticated. After 12 years together, she still gets me fired up.
