I think you’d be even happier if you gave me your Mustang....think what you’d save on petrol.
Because, at heart, I seem to be a bit of a Puritan. I like ‘things’, but at the same time believe ‘less is more.’ I think psychiatrists call this ‘cognitive dissonance.’ I both want stuff and don’t...

Well, could you? Most of us love to change, flip, have fun with the hobby. But supposing you really were limited to two watches, and that would be it....you’re done. One good point is that residuals...
