    Talking college Science teaching rather than coin collecting. Both were able for us to build 6 houses over 12 years in Flagstaff we rented out to Arizona students for 22 years which we sold this summer. Of course my wife has done an excellent job handling the money and bills. This year we used the transfer to buy California housing and renting them after renewing them as they are close, all being in southern CA .

    So now I can put some more time and coins into action. My son is the president of the local coin club and wife handles the money. I just talk about the coins. Our big cat has the swift claw so se controls the table top. Beware!! I do have some duplicates that I hope to reduce in numbers as time goes along.

    Leaving academia can be bittersweet. I didn't miss the administration but I did miss the students. Best of luck with your retirement.
