Pete: You are absolutely right. I retired at 45 years old and sat
under a Coconut Tree drinking Carib beer for 5 years. At the end I
couldn't take it any more. I returned to the USA and went back to
work (70 hours a week plus). Now 53, I'm trying to find a plan which
is a little more moderate, ie, keeps me engaged but not burnt out.

Pete, as usual you are correct. Indeed, I intend to restructure my life, not retire. Who knows, maybe I'll work for wages longer, if the the mood strikes me, otherwise I'll just work for my pleasure only.

Such thoughts are what make BB's show so powerful. Anybody can have a talk show about money. BB's show is unique in the way he weaves other elements into the show, most importantly WHAT YOU DO WITH YOUR MONEY. His emphasis on personal enjoyment, health, charity, and spending are all-important.

I hope that eventually, all his listeners hear his true message.
