Your Grandfather did not work for Corporate America...

As a matter of fact, he did.

In that generation COLLEGE TUITION for children made it impossible to save a lot..and the BLUE COLLAR worker had
little education in savings with one exception, their saving account in the local Bank


He worked his way through school just as I did. He also had some academic scholarships.

Be thankful for the legacy they left for you with this "MEAN MACHINE" and the many other
"THINGS" that they did not have. and leave the "GREEDY ELDER
ROUTINE" to Rambi.. She does it so well;-)


I never claimed that Elders were greedy. Mean machine? Specify. You are talking in code again. JLA

ALexander- set the record straight, please!
I have NEVER spoken about greedy elders. in any way, certainly not as a "routine" (very insulting)
I AM a greedy elder.
I believe you must be thinking of Lorrie Cooey, who has written about that subject.
