I am both an economist (M.A., U. of Chicago, 1968, in economics PhD program) and a lawyer (J.D., U. of Chicago, 1971). I had the good fortune to study under seven Nobel Laureates in economics (Milton Friedman, Robert Mundell, Theodore Schultz, George Stigler, Ronald Coase, Robert Fogel and Gary Becker) and only left economics and the PhD program, contrary to the wishes and advice of Milton Friedman, because having good grades out of a top law school was much more remunerative. I wanted to return later at some point and finish up, but the opportunity cost was too high. I practiced law, mostly in a large firm, doing large scale jury litigation and appeals. I believe seriously in economics and have somewhat kept track of the field, although I do not believe all I read. I do not seriously believe in law, although I practiced it quite successfully for thirty years and created significant new law. I have been investing since the early sixties when gains on airline bonds substantially helped put me through college. I have appeared in past volumes of Marquis, Who’s Who in the World, Who’s Who in America, Who’s Who in Law, Who’s Who in Finance and Industry and others. I retired early and have been circumnavigating the world on my own sailboat for the last several years. I survived the tsunami in Pago Pago, American Samoa and left there for New Zealand, but my autopilot failed in route and I am now in Neiafu, Vava'u, Tonga for the cyclone season in the South Pacific.
