Not at all. Many times here you have indicated the only thing that
really matters to you is "profit," or money-making. I'm sure that is
behind your support of the Palestinian desire to push the Israelis into
the Mediterranean, because you figure that with the "Jewish state" gone,
tensions in the Middle East will ease, and that will profit your
portfolio, if not fill your gas tank.

We all care about the continued success of the economic systems of the
world. Nothing threatens peace more than economic collapse.

Funny stuff. Harry used to brag about the expensive stuff he "owned" and things he's "done". Now that he's been outed regarding his unpaid taxes and bankruptsies, he's suddenly become an adversary of aquiring material wealth.

Yeah Harry goes out of his way to rationalize why he still needs to
work when he should have enough money to retire.

I work because I like to work. I get to work on assignments and
long-term projects I find intellectually stimulating and that keep me in
close collegial contact with some interesting people, *and* I get paid
for working. It's not as if I were going to retire from some scutwork
job, like inspecting the construction work others had done.

Very few of my long-time clients and colleagues have retired, though all
could afford to do so. By staying active, we don't have to waste the
rest of our lives taking up golf, RV'ing, or buying one gun after
another to find one that fits into our pocket.
