Title: Matt Walters
Post by: cas4ksu on July 08, 2014, 04:49:03 PM
Apparently he is done working with KMAN and is going to start a career in banking in MHK. I think he'll still be the sideline reporter tho.


If you have ever had the pleasure of hearing Dlew12's imitation of Matt Walters, you may have thought you were listening to chilidog matt himself.

Connections. He sold advertising as well as being on air (I bet commerce was his client). I know he was wanting to sell for learfield at one point to make more $. Eventually you want a little more money during that profession. I'm happy he gets to stay on, on the side.

Loan officers are pretty much a sales position. As long as you're likeable you can do it.

He should. Like others have said, if he's becoming a loan officer, he has the personality to do it.

Nobody is going to argue that, but still a stud.

Commerce Bank has a history of doing this kind of thing.  I worked at Commerce in the mid 90s and at that time there was a loan officer whose name I can't recall that had been a local radio personality for decades before Commerce hired him as a loan officer.

No, none of these I am afraid.  Darn, still can't remember the guys name.  I grew up in Manhattan and I had never heard of the guy till I started working with him, so it was primarily the older folks that knew him from the radio.

I do know another story about a radio guy/ banker.  I spoke with somebody who used to work at a bank in Lawrence a long time ago. Max Falkenstien was employed there for a long time as a loan officer at the same time he was the radio voice of the Jayhawks.  I was told that Max didn't really know a lot about banking or making loans and stuff but he was really great at meeting people and shaking hands and stuff. 

Apparently he brought in a lot of business because everybody in Lawrence wanted to meet Max.  So he would sit in his office and read Playboy magazine until somebody came in to say hi, then he would have go visit with them for a bit.

Source: A+. My memory: B-, so it is possible I got a little confused on the details.

Well for one, I highly doubt that he "read" Playboy.

You're thinking of Dev Nelson. And he didn't become a banker, he opened up a baseball card shop and sold approximately 120 Kirby Puckett cards to SB bro.
