<font color=green> What's wrong with SI addiction? I call it focus and concentration. Persistence and other desirable traits. Unclewest, ignore UncleFrank. Do NOT gift each family $50,000. Invest $90,000 in Globalstar, an incipient gorilla - no UncleFrank, I haven't RTFM yet - it's sitting in a stack of 4 half-read books will I focus. Use the other $10,000 to travel to the grandchildren/children a few times a year and stay in a nearby motel [or on the floor of their living room if they want you to sleep over]. Lots of short visits is better for the grandchildren and more fun than a couple of longer ones. You'll be like a new toy each time. My parents, many decades ago, used to hide toys for a few months, then bring them out again - it was exciting to have what seemed like a familiar, but new, toy. I never noticed that they went missing. In three years time, sell half the Globalstar shares. Give each of your children $1 million. Use the rest of the money to travel in style and maybe give them another $50,000 to build the guest wings. In 5 years time, sell half the remaining Globalstar gorilla stock and gift each of your grandchildren $1 million. In 10 years time, sell the rest and buy a Gulfstream and take the family for a jaunt around the world. Have a nice day, Mqurice PS: I haven't given up UF! To cut to the chase and save me RTFMing to the punchline, is G! a G? You curmudgeonly types must have considered it. I happened to be having a little click around, seeing who was visiting where and ended up here...just cruising by. Bye!
