3:00 It's funny that a lot of people may have made more $$, but at least I have helped make Microsoft, and can use it as a strategic reel to create exciting products.

Others would envy me my position working for Gates at Microsoft. I see him once a month. Hardly Enviable!

REMEMBER: MONEY IS NOT A CONSIDERATION. BUT FAIRNESS IS!!

WHAT ABOUT RAINY, CLOUDY SEATTLE DARK, DISMAL, DAMP + DREARY?

BIG QUESTION WE'LL SEE.

MAYBE IF I CAN PLAY INSTEAD OF "HARD CORE CODING" I'LL BE OK

1) MUSIC + VIDEO (NO PERFORMANCE OR COMPOSITION)

2) GAMES (CHESS + BRIDGE)

3) COOKING

4) DINING OUT W/OTHERS

5) ROBOTICS

6) NEGOTIATION

THIS BALANCES:

NEED TO WORK NEED FOR TIME TO PLAY

So: given my salary level now, I plan to achieve productivity through others, and my raise will be "less mental strain" (BULL SHIT! I WANT SOME THING TO SHOW FOR MY WORK!)! I'll still work a lot but only on stuff I enjoy. That will fade.
