You bet!

Figure out how to extract ever more while paying ever less. Good news,
for some, indeed.

Hope this doesn't affect Harry's retirement plan!

" His side has equally divisive ways to strike back. The Carpenters union could
yank some $500 million it has invested in ULLICO Inc., a labor-owned insurance
company."


The Carpenters do not have $500 million invested in Ullico. The union
might have that much invested in a fund or funds managed by Ullico.

The ups and downs of Ullico have nothing to do with me. I ended my
consulting arrangement with that corporation more than a year ago.

My "retirement," when I decide to take it, is funded by real property
holdings in Virginia, Connecticut, and Florida, some of which throw off
income; some relatively small holdings in publicly traded shares, and an
IRA I've been tossing cash into for what seems like forever.

You should consider fishing charters out of Solomons on that 36 footer! $650 a
day, five days a week, about 32 weeks a year...hell, that's decent money!
