Funny story about S13 -
On the way to school the other morning, he tells me that service industries must be a good way to get rich, because of your low cost of goods. I pointed out to him that, in a service industry, you are limited by how many hours a week you can produce, or, if you hire others, you have a significant investment in hiring and training. I said generally, people make more money in retail, where you can ramp up your sales without having to increase how much time you invest by a proportionate amount. I said that's why Friend X, who runs a small landscaping business, will never be as rich as Friends Y and Z, the founders of Reef Brazil sandal company (famous for the "Reef girls",its Brazilian models in thong swimsuits used in all its advertising).

S13 says - maybe Friend X WOULD be as rich if he used naked women's hineys on HIS advertising!
