My friend, a Big Bug music publisher, and I were walking through the "back 40" behind his house in Encino,, and he waved his hand across the mountainscape, took a deep sign and counseled,, "Kibo, I made it all in pennies".

[Off Topic] Barry, Upside Magazine sponsored a time-and motion study comparing a "typical" guy (i.e., $100,000 earner) with Bill Gates. Based on time-and-motion, the typical guy would lose money if he'd stop to pick up anything less than 14 cents (time it takes divided into time-available). Gates should not stop for anything less than $17,450. Is this the guy in your town? .k1b0 :)

I had a chance to peek into the mind of someone when I was 20 years old that forever stuck with me. I was subbing for an afternoon of weekly bridge with these 65 year old men. We were having lunch first, and one of the men needed to call his broker and asked if any of us had change for a quarter, as the call was 15 cents. (I thought that weird as I who was not making much would have thrown the quarter in) He finally goes to the bar and gets change and makes his call. He comes back and tells us that his sale went through and he made $1,000,000 on that investment. "Let's celebrate with shrimp cocktail!" I thought, good deal. He ordered one shrimp cocktail which came with 4 shrimp, we each got one. Whew, what a celebration, and later we each received our seperate checks for lunch...
