Walking the Walk, Slowly

Mailed June 29th. Acknowledged Aug. 12th.

As I noted earlier, I sent Forbes $10 cash on June 29th. A cash payment tests the employees' honesty and the company's internal controls.

I was going to chide them in this humble journal after they sent a second request at the end of July, the discounted subscription not having started.

It's a good thing I held off on the negativity. On Friday (August 12th) the cheerleader for capitalism notified us that the subscription will start in August.

It also said that for an additional $10 Forbes would extend the subscription for another year.

I'll pass. Let's see how the first one works out.
