...these home parties was not to increase sales," says Roger Barnett. "The company's big enough that those individual sales aren't impactful. But we felt an obligation to our friends to share it with them, and they're all thanking us." But didn't Sloan's printed invitations mention that the New York Times might cover the event? Roger laughs. "And we got the New York Times to cover it. That's good...
...searched for some mention of psychology's giants who first theorized about the behavioral differences among siblings.

There's more than one way, it turns out, to be competitive...

But the health and wealth that many boomers are bringing into retirement are giving them 25 years or more to play with, not to mention the resources to spend that time well. For them, an early dinner and an evening of board games is not going to be enough...
