I will miss TF in it's current form, but it's been clear that this day might come for some time. I myself stopped trading over a year ago. I had an E-Bay side business that I shut down over two years ago.

What you do here Karl far exceeds any of my meager efforts to be sure; but those were just my 'contribution' (lack of contribution???) in going somewhat Galt. I still have a family to support and am doing that, but I'm tired of being a chump, and have scaled back as much as possible.

I myself need little to nothing. The minute that I'm not needed by the kiddos I'm done. That point gets closer every passing day. If not for them, I would have walked already, so I get it, I really do.

In any event, even though you don't need it, you have my congratulations for a job well done here.
