The problem is he claims they will see only 13.4 million, not the 21 million you bring up. That's why I'm pointing out that his assumption of a 10% rate of return is wrong. Back to the beginning again: To get to a 10% rate of return, the present value rate will have to be dropped considerably in his assumptions. Or sell it at 5% - but since that is what you can get in a CD, you won't sell it to anyone. ------------------------------------ Yahoo!
