Quit being silly Carl. The NMB does not believe in perpetual motion anymore than I do. You believe in it, and that is your prerogative. The world of business and finance disagree with you. What else can I say? How do you think things like insurance annuities are valued? If we go by your reasoning, they can't be valued because the future is unknowable. LOL!

Where were you educated? Dude, c'mon.

You likely know somebody in management in one company or another, or perhaps someone who has a business degree in finance. Why don't you run your thesis on costing of profit sharing by them and get their take. Using your imagination to put yourself in the shoes of a business owner might work if you give it a try.
