ElM, good arithmetic. Actually 27, but 28 later this year.

He's working everywhere he goes. Here's how he supports himself [these days] though he's also working on software in Canada [after snowboarding] for a doctor he met [through a shoulder injury from snowboarding]. snowadventures.co.nz [there are photos there, but it's all in Japanese, which is all his own work, including the software].

Our offspring have always worked. We don't pay them. We paid for food and accommodation and cheap clothes [anything labelled, they had to pay the difference in price] while at school. We paid university fees [for the two who went there]. What they have, they earned.

Tarken has a computer, links to cyberspace and that's a living these days. Anywhere!

His snowboarding is tax deductible because he has to do marketing. So, my trip to Beijing was out of my bank account. His is paid by his company to find out about the Mandarin market. His computer stuff, cyberphones etc are all business needs.

Mqurice the taxpayer sucker.

elmatador,

I have met this son.

Trust me. He is far more productive than that worthless father of his, with a good head of his shoulder and a zest for life.
