21 March 2006As in "You wish"One of the youngsters from the shop wanted some currency conversions. After not a whole lot of questioning, she explained what she had in mind: she'd like to find someplace where she could retire on, say, $500. Now the Yankee dollar is prized in some circles, but not so highly that you can live off one of them for more than 24 hours or so. I have to conclude that she's been watching too many informercials or something.

Posted by: McGehee at 12:08 PM on 21 March 2006Well, she's still in her twenties, so I assume she's not planning to pass on within thirty days. Then I'm afraid she'll need to plan otherwise.
