Today is my last day at Morgan Stanley
Yep I am fully retired as of tomorrow after a 44 year career .
After receiving the Eternal, Peh, and Platinum session catalogs in the mail today I have decided to go to Oklahoma City to view some lots and say hello.
I manage money. I earn money. I save money .
I give away money. I collect money.
I don’t love money . I do love the Lord God.

You realize you’re going to need a new job by the time you total your auction invoices, right?

44 years is impressive. At tax time I must remind myself MS=Etrade except when it's not (yeah its complicated).
Enjoy your well deserved new found freedom.

This is the reason I can’t retire. My collection is incomplete! And prices are up!

I haven't done anything for 44 years, but I hope one day I can make that claim.

IDK, you sure you're not just ditching traditional finance to be a crypto bro?? 😁
Congratulations - enjoy the ANA. Add a few Cap & Rays...
Many congrats. Hope you get to enjoy retirement and have some fun with coins. I hope you are back from your hiatus!

It’s hard to stay with one company for 44 years these days. I had a couple one stint that lasted for almost 10. AT&T was a “gold watch company”, but the break up got me in the end. I left because the company was headed south, and I didn’t want to relocate to Manhattan.
Congratulations!
Congrats Dan! Glad to see you back in the action.

Guess the 1827Pi just caught another bidder
Latin American Collection
Maybe , but there are several other great coins up for auction that are not 8 reales cap & rays .
Matter of fact probably could buy a slew of them less than what the 1827 pi will go for .
We will see.

This is great. Will we see you in NYC in January @bidask ?
Yes I still have the Harz baptismal 2 Thaler in NGC 58

Looking forward to seeing you.
Congratulations!!!!
Take it easy for a little while, take care of your physical and mental health, don't go making big decisions right away, let yourself settle into your new life for several months and then, when your mind is clear, at that point you can determine what you would like to do going forward and what will be the best way for you to pursue those yet unfulfilled wants, wishes and dreams.

Retirement is great if you planned well and I certainly hope you did.
Congrats
Getting used to retirement takes a while. I know, it took me until Wednesday that first week.

So @bidask, what did you get?
That big run of Ethiopian coins in the Peh Collection was very cool!
I give away money. I collect money.
I don’t love money . I do love the Lord God.
I bought one other great coin but way overpaid .
I give away money. I collect money.
I don’t love money . I do love the Lord God.
We all overpaid! That's the name of the game now-a-days.
Did you buy it in the auction or on the floor?
Auction
I did buy some nice coins on the floor including
1889/8 go 25’ centavos PCGS 65
1813 franc PCGS 65
1847 BB 5 francs PCGS 64+
I thought it was slim picking on the floor .
I give away money. I collect money.
I don’t love money . I do love the Lord God.
You have wider interests than me. For me, it would be no pickings.
That's why I rarely go to shows anymore. Cost/benefit just isn't there.
I hope your auction winning was a nice cap & rays.
Bought several of those .
I give away money. I collect money.

Back in the saddle!
Let’s see the francs, please!
