What Is The Real Reason...

It couldn't be that the "normal" retirement age for men in Japan is 60, and that Mr. Yoshida is now past that age?

I base this on the fact that his bio shows him joining Ricoh in 1967 with a bachelor's degree, so I assume he was at least 21 at the time, giving him a "born on" date of 1946 or earlier.

I realize that doesn't fit with the "boogey man" choices in the poll... sorry to be a buzz killer.

I have always found your financial analysis of certain situations to be very wise. Yet, you are off base on this one, as Yoshida is not retiring.

A good blog has balance and objectivity because of those willing to post. With that having been said - he could retire from New Jersey as easily as from Tokyo.

but if he retired in New Jersey as easily as in Tokyo, wouldn't he get more sleep if he retired in New Jersey and then woke up in Tokyo?

Or rather... no retirement has been announced. Has anyone read what industry analysts, such as Cannata, say on the subject? Hmmm?

I stand corrected. Information received today suggests Kirk will soon retire.
