    That is so good Gray.

    Bit of a double edged sword though. My father in law is a fisherman, an East coast trawlerman, recently retired and thier mentality was as the businessman. Buy a bigger boat catch more fish and then they couldnt make money.

    He was lucky and sold the boat and licences to a dutch company who paid well but others now have a heavy rope around thier necks.

    So what happened to the Mexican fisherman then?

    Did he take the Americans advice and become a Millionaire – or did he stay poor all his life 😕
