INDEX - NOT

For those of you who are either uninitiated (sp?); or just plain wonder -- the world of blogs does not particularly lend itself to indexing. In addition, for those of you who have taken an income tax or business course you will be familiar with the phrase "Last in -- First out" or something like that.

Anyway, the most recent post is what you will first see on the site -- to get to some of the articles dealing with associate arrangements; purchase and sale of practices; practice valuations -- you will have to scroll down and go to "previous posts" and continue and continue until you reach the proverbial heart of darkness. In the case of the article on purchase and sale of practices -- there are about 14 or so postings -- so start at the earliest postings and move forward. Or I suppose I could send you the consolidated version. ;-))))

End of Summer

I am playing out my bucket list with major exuberance. For the summer I was able to: go to my first nascar race; play soldier for the day; travel to New York, Ottawa and Cleveland. Playing with my motorcycle via Dr. John and doing whatever comes naturally.

The fall schedule is already lining up with serious work, lectures, writing and some hearings and minimal dollar trials. Amazing to me how many people think I have retired because of my departure from teaching -- even more amazing that I don't miss the teaching because of what I perceive as a change in the attitude of students. Decades ago -- if a teacher missed a class the students would revolt and demand that the class be taught. Now it appears as if a class is an inconvenience to students. I had a new graduate in my office who was in my last class two years ago and after graduation went to a management course. She indicated that the material she paid for was not much different than what was taught at CMCC. I guess if you pay for it, it has more value. I suppose I could have made a few dollars selling information -- but alas, the road less taken.

Welcome to the beginning of September and a wonderful part of the year in Ontario, Canada.
