I am wealthy, in more ways than one.  My various bank accounts are plenty full.  The government is going to give me a nice check this year because all of my income last year was interest and dividends, but interest on my very large and overly expensive (even at today's prices) house was quite the write off.  In money terms, I've got enough to last my lifetime and three more, had I believed in reincarnation.

The curious case of Benjamin Broussard.  You see, he probably wasn't supposed to be a baseball player.  He was probably all along supposed to be a musician; maybe not a million-selling cultural icon.  More like a guy who gets an album deal and makes his money touring 162 nights a year.  But something happened on the way to his destiny.  He walked onto the baseball program at McNeese State University in Texas and made the team.&n
