A buddy of mine got a summer job at Eaton's warehouse, lo these many decades ago. They put him on a forklift.
His fellow workers acquainted him with the scratch and dent discount. You want a fridge. Dent a panel. The fridge gets tossed. You get it for free and buy the replacement panel.
Retirement plan?
