My Meeting With A Large Public School System Director

Today, I met with a director level individual at a major school district in the Mid-West. We discussed cost cutting measures that I could provide the school system. Later in the conversation, he mentioned that he was retiring within the next few years and asked me what I thought he should consider as a business to run in his retirement years. I mentioned that he should select an industry that has products, or services that are consumable over a 30 day period, appeals to the masses and has an autoship option. In fact, I suggested that he get into the business that I am representing, because it has a great value proposition that will certainly save the school system a lot of money. He seemed to be very receptive to that thought.

So many people face these decisions as us baby boomers approach 60! Look at it as a journey to new found freedom. Works for me...
