DO YOU WANT TO EARN A LOT OF MONEY? I like to write about issues that affect young people as well as folks who are further along in their careers. Much of what concerns me is helping people figure out how to make a living and survive in the world. I wrote a book about […]
EQUAL PAY FOR EQUAL WORK! That issue seems to never die. Maybe it shouldn’t. I admit I have an interest in the issue as I have two daughters and this seems to be a women’s issue. I want them to have opportunities. I also admit that when I started my career in the 70’s that […]
