[AT] As seen on TV: Balsters

[Ron Cook]

I had not heard of this auction.  I was planing to buy some plow shares 
and bolts from Balsters.  I guess I am too late.

Had I inherited this business, there is no way I would have auctioned it 
off like that.  I would have just kept in business.  That great big pile 
of dough will soon be gone with no way to gain it back.  Just like 
selling off the family farm.

Probably why I am poor.  Faulty thinking.
