- Well, Denis, like I said, go to business school. But be sure to get that PhD
- in Marketing or Finance, get a post at Harvard or Stanford or Wharton, sit on
- a dozen boards of directors, fly first class, teach one class a year, pull in
- a six-figure income, and then you can have all your summers free.

- It might be interesting to note that my grandfather was a business school prof
- at that li'l school in Cambridge, MA, during the 20s and 30s. While going
- through his papers last year, I discovered his annual salary in 1932 was about
- $3500!! About the same as an attorney or a physician, according to my trusty
- Time-Life book on the 1930s. My, my, but have times changed!
