The Apprentice Finale - VOTE FOR LEE!
VOTE FOR LEE! VOTE FOR LEE!



Lee, 22, graduated from Cornell University with a 4.0 grade point average, where he received a B.S. in policy analysis and management. While attending Cornell University, he won business plan writing and marketing competitions, and served as a teaching assistant for courses in entrepreneurship and management. He worked for Merrill Lynch, researching emerging markets, creating portfolios and compiling business plans for high net worth clients, including an investment banking deal with an estimated value in excess of $100 million. Previous experiences outside of corporate America include working at a day treatment program for the mentally ill, volunteering at soup kitchens and teaching fourth grade children in an inner-city school. Lee draws his inspiration from his grandfather who emigrated to the U.S. penniless and uneducated, yet through hard work and determination was successful through investing in real estate. At age 22, Lee became an analyst for one of the largest business/consulting firms in the world. Today, Lee works with some of the biggest companies and government agencies in the country to devise business strategy and information technology systems. Lee currently resides in New York City.

VOTE FOR LEE!

This is the last one... Promise!

2. Im not quite as confident.
I think American will overwhelmingly vote for Sean. Plus, Lee picked a god awful team for the final challenge.

I really hope he comes out on top though.

8. I couldn't believe Lee's picks
Lenny was a given since they were good friends. Roxanne and Pepi made very little sense. I don't see a threat of greatness in either one of them. IMO you need to gamble in a one shot deal and pick the best people, not the ones you feel most comfortable with.

I would definitely bet on Sean but Lee was my choice from the outset so he's my rooting interest.

3. Lee should have been fired early on. Vote for Sean!
VOTE FOR SEAN!



    Sean, 33, born and raised in London now works as a director of business development for a recruitment consultancy registered on the London Stock Exchange, where he boasts the title of the top-ranking sales person globally at his firm. He graduated from the Southampton Solent University with first class honors. Quickly snapped up by an international recruitment consultancy, Sean spent nine years brokering multimillion dollar deals with Fortune 500 companies in over 20 global locations. He earned the EB1 Green Card for "persons of extraordinary ability" in 2005. Sean resides in Miami.

5. Great pic! For looking at and drooling over, Sean is my pick.
I think this one will be a close call though, both men seem qualified.

7. Sean has my vote. Very hot, very smart. What's not to like?
I was very disappointed in the women they had on the show this time. Not a strong, effective leader in the lot.

Lee's a wanker.

6. Actually it should have been Allie or Roxanne.
Except for Allie's awful design efforts, they were clearly the most effective of the apprenti. If tonight's show doesn't reveal Lee realizing that his event is in big trouble and/or Sean focusing on his project rather than Tammy, the Donald should fire them both. That said, here is a tepid vote for lee.

10. Sorry, I like the other guy better.
Although I think several of the women were better competitors. But I really don't think Trump feels as comfortable with women. He classically sees a strong woman as "bitchy and pushy" where the guy is always "edgy and aggressive".

12. I gave up on this season soon after it started . . .
the whole show is nothing but one huge commercial for Trump and the companies he partners with for the "challenges" . . . I suppose the donald is a nice enough fella, and he's certainly a marketing genius -- (I mean, THEY are paying HIM! . . .

however . . .

I really hate commercials . . . and . . .

I thoroughly despise hour-long commercials . . .

no offense to "Apprentice" viewers . . . the show certainly IS compelling -- a tribute to Trump's marketing prowess . . .

13. Didn't Think He Should Win
Edited on Tue Jun-06-06 06:59 AM by erpowers
I thought Sean was much more qualified for the job. In addition, I did not think Lee showed much leadership throughout the show. I know he stepped up four times to be project manager, but in my opinion in most of his time as project manager he realied on other people to make decisions for him. He relied on Lenny and Tarek in some of his time as project manager. I think Sean had done better work before he was a candidate on The Apprentice and showed more leadership when he was project manager.
