    Walking me past a lineup of mostly white machines, the president said, “Look at the pricing, and tell me the one that most customers will want.”

    I can’t recall if I guessed right, but soon enough he gave me the answer.

    “The middle one,” he said. “They don’t want the cheapest, and they don’t feel they can afford the most expensive, so they take the one that’s priced, in between.”

    It’s no secret that the United States has a nursing shortage, one that promises to grow to alarming proportions. Too many nurses are retiring, and too few are entering the profession. To compound the problem, within the next 5

    “Gary, do you know the only way to beat the car business? Buy the very best car you can get, and then keep it running, forever!”

    But that’s not what we do, generally. We buy a middle grade vehicle, become dissatisfied quickly, trade it frequently, and our overall cost of driving might exceed that of someone who owns the Bentley or Rolls for a few decades.
