I've been thinking about reading it. I guess you did. Dr. Davis is well-respected by his peers.

Exit interviews are designed to benefit the company, not you. My inclination would be to exit gracefully and quietly. What do you have to gain by providing information? And what do you have to lose? Can you be certain that your input would remain confidential? Doubtful.

Hi Chinaco, I didn't have the benefit of this website or any books before I retired; I discovered some of these resources after the fact. I did read some articles on various websites, but mainly I just made basic calculations before I retired. I estimated how much money I would need...

Hi Trek! Yes, we visited the bear pits in the bear city of Berne. It was a nice city and surely worth visiting, but it's the Alps that attracted us to Switzerland in the first place and the Jungfrau region was our favorite. I too remember that cemetery in Zermatt. The tombstone you mentioned...
