No, I think you misunderstood; ClubSmed is a process architect which means he sits at the top of the tree, working out all the processes so that the pimp & the bank robber can 'work' correctly :lol:

What's the retirement plan in that line of work? 401K decent?

I scratch out a meager living through bottling the occasional cask.

I have a plan for a much greater income though - if you would all like to buy 'shares' in my future distillery 'Moneyburn'. These shares, costing £100,000 each will return you 1 case from the first year's production once they are ready (i.e. 3 years, 1 day and travel time to the bottling hall). Of course I reserve the right to ever build the thing in the first place. Shares are limited to 3,000.

Anyone?
