Right. I'm younger that some of the candidates but have no desire to
get into any work at any level. I like doing what I want on my
schedule. I cut my work week when I was 67, cut it again a couple years
later, walked away at 71. Last thing I'd want to do is be on the
campaign trail to run for POTUS. Or even dog catcher.
