Compassion was never one of Krauses strong points.

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.




It certainly sounds like a bunch of people who never had the


intellectual curiosity to develop interests away from their job.




My inspecting contract was very interesting, simply because of the


variety of jobs I inspected. It was also pretty lucrative ($58.50 an


hour, portal to portal and expenses).




I found a group of very interesting people at Florida DEP and I spend


time with them, on a variety of environmental projects. I just don't


need them to pay me. I also stay pretty busy building things at the


house. I actually do that building, not just "inspecting the


construction work others do" like you.




I have skills








Your assumption is that my friends who didn't retire are still working

at their primary jobs. Some are, some are not. One who resigned from

running a multinational financial corporation has for five years headed

an NGO that helps communities in underdeveloped countries find, build,

and sustain potable water suppliers. Do you suppose that is

intellectually stimulating? Another is deeply involved in running

activities for the Aga Khan Foundation in a really crummy part of the

world. I don't think either of them play golf or go RV'ing or rebuild

their porch. *They* have skills.

You didn't build your porch either. A contractor did it for you.

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?
