What do you do for a living?

I am currently retired...not by choice. I had climbed to the top of the corporate ladder. It's a long fall from up there. I was in the Financial Services Industry for 20 years. Started as a teller making $4.50 an hour worked up to a District Manager, opened my own business, sold it, took a job as a VP, then promoted to COO, then knocked off the ladder by a greedy SOB that owed me almost $300,000 in bonus. I built his business from near bankruptcy to 6 million a year in cash flow and he screws me over $300k! Greed is very ugly.
Anyway, currently trying to decide to take another job (have an interview tomorrow that is sure to lead to a job offer) or to do my own business again. I really want to do my own thing but my wife wants me to take the stable job. Guess it will come down to how much they offer me. The business I have decided on after much debate is to buy gold and other precious metals and sell to a smelter for 100% profit. Decisions, decisions.

Some of those dudes came by not too long ago and briefed us. Seemed like a pretty cool gig. I decided to go to selection instead.

Point of Sale Programmer / Marketing / Retail Relations

AKA... What Sells? How do you Sell it? How do you get paid for it.

edit: I went back through the old thread. Here's what I said before:

I fight wars from within my cubicle locked deep inside the regional headquarters of a major corporation which supplies recreational conveyance for the street, off the road, or over the water... whatever your fancy may be... We make it with 2 wheels, 4 wheels, or a propeller.

Pretty much the same, just with another company.
