Yes, the end of an era. Quite sad really.

We could have a big discussion about online shopping, China, etc etc...

but for me it's - thanks Don for those years.

and really? Sons rather than daughters? His 'sons' probably would be running the same online businesses as his daughters.

He has a point that boys are more likely to do something like run an on-line electronics business, than girls, but it's also true they probably wouldn't be interested. I certainly wouldn't be interested. The margins are slim and it seems like a really boring job.

Fair play to him, shame there was nobody to pass the mantle on to but if he's 'comfortable' enough to be able to retire I figure he deserves it at 75, I wish him a long and happy retirement and I have a feeling he will continue to tinker for himself.
