— DIERSEN HEADLINE: Compared to your peers, how much time and money have you spent on immediate pleasures so far during your lifetime? I should write a book about those who have demonized me, denigrated me, and condemned me the most for my using my time and money to a) earn an MBA from Loyola in 1976, b) pass the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, c) earn a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, d) pass the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, e) become a licensed CPA in 1981, and f) earn a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT in 1997. I would focus on my Democrat IRS and GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates who spent lots of their time and lots of their money on immediate pleasures.)
