Bill Gates 'hanging it up" on June 27th

I see today that Bill Gates, founder and CEO of Microsoft is hanging it up on June 27th and gonna retire. He's keepin' his figurehead title as Chairman of the Board, but heck how much can that pay for meeting just once a month. At the age of 53, I sure hope he got some financial advice to help him through the troubled times until he is eligible for Social Security --- in ten years. He'll want to be able to put milk on his corn flakes in the morning, Bless his heart.

I may make light of him, but when you think all that this young man did after dropping out of Harvard... literally changing the way the world operates --- kinds put into perspective the remarkably little imprint all those silver haired lawyer, public trough feeders in Congress make, doesn't it.
