"Retirement"???

"Retirement"???

He didn't say what he retired from. :)

Fair enough. But, it made me think of this:

My grandparents were cattle ranchers. Every so often they would meet someone new who would say something like "Oh, when I retire, I would like to own a ranch".

This would set my grandmother's teeth a-grinding. Operating a cattle ranch was a lot of work, but she felt that some folks believed you just sat on your horse and watched the cattle grow and the money poured in.

While I realize that James didn't necessarily mean that he believed the hype about "work from home! Set your own hours. Make $$$!!!" I just thought it funny given my grandmother's regard about this so-called "retirement".

But, of course, no one but me (and now you) would know this.

Maybe referring to the conservative talk show? I believe they have a "retirement income advisor"

Not sure if he is serious though.

Excellent qualifications there "talk show".

That's the type of qualified person who I would want to listen to as a:
