| Since
then:
For the past 13 years we’ve been
living in Lausanne, Switzerland (near Geneva)
“We” consists of:
two grown boys that are getting ready
to leave home. Our eldest is 22 and has just finished
Law school and the younger one, 21, has just finished
high school and about to head off for University
my wife of 30 years, the poor thing
the usual assorted animals.
Prior to Lausanne, we’ve lived in New
York City and Brussels, Belgium. It’s always been my job
that caused us to move.
My first job after UC, Berkeley,
(Economics) was as a management trainee for a South
American mining company now part of Anglo American. After
that I worked in various managerial positions for a metal
trading firm now part of Cargill and for ICC Chemicals. In
1977, I set up on my own business in the same field of
mining, metal trading and chemical manufacturing (in
non-Japan Asia).
Over the past couple
of years I’ve been winding things down a little and
getting ready for the new phase where we will be without
our boys.
