A personal anecdote about the Silent generation

Most of us need an occasional drink as an  excuse to loosen up a bit. Some of us loosen up a bit too much. A tattoo parlor out of a barbershop?  I often need a haircut.  I do not have or want a tattoo. A gift ship? I would lay odds that it has failed. Most of us do not need more stuff.  I am in economic distress, but even I would love to downsize, divesting myself of stuff that I no longer need. The problem is that there are few buyers.

Hair salon/barber shop - a business that will never lose demand. They only quit the business because they got to retirement age.

[A]lthough one would like to change today's world back to the spirit of one hundred years or more ago, it cannot be done. Thus it is important to make the best out of every generation. - Hagakure
