..... Expenses become a factor in the whole context of JL's
life which only he can determine himself.

Economics is a factor, isn't it always? A year ago when I gave my
notice, my retirement budget was 20% greater than it is today. Current
economic conditions have made me a lot more conservative.


I'm really sorry if I said anything bad to reflect upon you, I didn't mean
it. I was just giving a slightly outside of the box opinion. I hope things
pick up for you and all works out to exceed your expectations.
Lighten up, I too believe in being careful with one's resources. I don't
have a six figure retirement income, but it is still more than the average
household income. Plus, I was a consultant for thirty-five years and still
have clients wanting me to do things for them. It's just at this point
there aren't too many requests that I want to do.
