If anyone was looking , last week I was not on FF . I was out of state .
I was Wined & Dined by a group of Civic Leaders and Business Owners
Then came the hook .
Would I consider coming out of retirement to take on a new project ??
I can't give out the details but it involves setting up new "Private local companies" and making them profitable . Its also involves helping to save a dying community from itself . I would also become an advisor and consultant .
I would have total control and answer to no one .
My job would be simple .
Take my pick of business ideas from an existing “Think Tank” and completely build a company that will turn a profit within 2 years to help the local economy or I can use my own ideas . I would be allowed to build the company any way I want .I can keep it small or large in size . I would also set up the training and provide projections of profitability based on the local needs of the area . I would also be involved in setting up and encouraging financial growth in the area , in any way I see fit . Once its up , running and turning a profit , I move to the next project in line .
Its tempting to say the least . I get bored pretty easily and always need something to do . I cut my teeth on starting new businesses and making them profitable real fast . I been everything from the Broom Pusher to the Big Boss and done both at the same time more than once .
But, I also like being retired now . I have a beautiful wife and need to consider her needs and wants too .We like to travel . I turn 56 in a couple months and its been a while since I sold my last business concern .
I like helping others and honestly want to see this succeed to help a community that deserves another chance to live .
Did I mention this is Pro Bono .
So here I sit today , comprehending the whole idea .?????
They would like to have me on board by March 1st or as soon there after as possible .
I also now have half a heart that still works and just watched my father spend his last days on Earth lying in a hospital bed . That is not the way I intend to go out or be remembered .

No, the offer is not in Calif . and I am actually in the middle of moving to Idaho and using it as my main residence no matter where I end up over the next couple of years . 
I think if anyone did they just thought you were in the moving process.
