Retirement, you know what it is. You can suddenly pull the Fixed Income card when something costly comes up.

You can wake up at any time you want to and treck out to the car and announce a day trip to Yellowstone National Park and you can rent a room near Old Faithful, or the Lake and stay over.

I keep saying we should have stayed locked down another 2 or 3 weeks, but this is America and attention spans are reduced to soundbites. I take issue with the spelling of the word Soundbites, as a bit of a computer geek, I always thought it was spelled, SoundByte.

The blond guy on the right, looking so serious is there for no reason at all. I hope you enjoy it.
