B次元官网网址淣o two days are the same,B次元官网网址� he says of why heB次元官网网址檚 stayed in the industry so long. B次元官网网址淚t doesnB次元官网网址檛 matter the brand, or the situation. ItB次元官网网址檚 just that youB次元官网网址檙e always dealing with people, and youB次元官网网址檙e changing peopleB次元官网网址檚 lives. YouB次元官网网址檙e providing one of the biggest purchases in their life, and I like being a part of that.B次元官网网址�

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.

B次元官网网址淲e take them paddle boarding. My wifeB次元官网网址檚 better than I am, but we get out a few times a month,B次元官网网址� he says, laughing. B次元官网网址淚 like to spend as much time on the lake as possible.B次元官网网址�

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

B次元官网网址淓very couple of years we try to do something thatB次元官网网址檚 really out there,B次元官网网址� says Tanner. B次元官网网址淲e went to South Africa in 2016, and Dubai in 2018. Dubai was just absolutely incredible. ItB次元官网网址檚 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 itB次元官网网址檚 just so amazing and beautiful, and so different.B次元官网网址�

The 7 Sins

envy:

Whose shoes would you like to walk in?

Tom Brady. HeB次元官网网址檚 a winner. The greatest quarterback of all time. And whatB次元官网网址檚 more impressive is heB次元官网网址檚 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. HeB次元官网网址檚 evolved to succeed in todayB次元官网网址檚 game, and heB次元官网网址檚 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:

YouB次元官网网址檙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, IB次元官网网址檇 buy a classic Land Rover Defender.

wrath:

Pet peeves?

Bad service.

sloth:

Where would you spend a long time doing nothing?

Here. ThereB次元官网网址檚 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 B次元官网网址渄o nothingB次元官网网址� with them.

pride:

What is the one thing youB次元官网网址檙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 itB次元官网网址檚 clich茅, but my wife. She is the perfect combination of sexy and sophisticated. After 12 years together, she still gets me fired up.
