"...We weren’t allowed to bother Dad while the news was on..."

Yeah. That's the way it was for me when my parents and I were moving
to our new house and had to stay with Grandpop & Grandmom
for that one month during the move.

Our TV was packed up / being moved, and Granddad had only
one TV to watch - and of course Wall Street Week took precedence
over Mr Roger's Neighborhood - so the poor little tyke (me)
had to learn about self-denial early...

But of course, had I learned all about investing starting at age 4, instead of
watching Mr. Rogers, things would probably have turned out differently, eh? (LOL)

We had a much more wholesome upbringing that most kids today. Too much of “The View” and not enough Cronkite. We were so deprived that we had to play outside. [HORRORS]
