country. We’re both in our mid-fifties, work every day and pay our taxes. I posed this hypothetical question to him, I have a pocket-full of money, how much do you need in order to retire tomorrow? He is a hard core fiscal conservative, is paying a mortgage and has a wife and a kid. He told me one point three million. He’s fifty-four and has been a plumbing contractor for twenty five years. That’s to be comfortable in his mind, one point three million to last the next thirty years. Why does a hearing aid cost thousands of dollars?
Well pancakes, wrong you are. As a business owner he hates taxes and the way our government has its hand in everything. He’s totally against abortion and welfare of any sort, especially corporate. He’s also for “winning” in Iraq. You see, we smoke and play golf together and don’t let our political opinions get in the way of our friendship. Lighten up OK?
