Not at all. Many times here you have indicated the only thing that

We all care about the continued success of the economic systems of the

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.




How about you? Can you afford to retire? You probably can't afford golf

or RVing on your SS check. And the guns. Got them out of your system yet?

How can Krause afford to retire? Probably off the royalties to the commercial jingles he's written?
