The next four memo's will be the same and devoted to my autobiography, which I was encouraged to write by my son, as well as a previous pamphlet I wrote regarding raising children by conservative parenting which, under current circumstances, I could not have totally predicted but did fear was on the horizon, at the time I wrote .
The link was prepared by my Canadian computer guru who also helped in the editing of both missives.
My autobiography is written mainly for family and particularly future members who may never get to know me well or at all. If you decide to read it, I hope you find it interesting.
As for the pamphlet on raising children in a conservative manner, in a world fraught with liberal illogic, political power grabs and, thus, constant potential disasters, it was written to raise money for "The Wounded Warriors."
Now that radical liberals have imposed their dangerous ideas pertaining to raising children and then subjecting them, educationally, to embrace concepts of self-hate and racial discord under such tag names as CRITICAL RACE THEORY, CANCEL CULTURE and an assortment of equally dangerous theories, so future generations of Americans can live on their knees under the flag of Socialism, you might even find my "pamphlet" more interesting.
Both are at least timely.
I always invite comments and try to be an open book..
Stay well, be safe.

"Street Person" - Autobiography By Dick Berkowitz
| By Dick Berkowitz |
Dick Berkowitz . . . (1933 Birmingham, AL–) led the Institutional Sales division of Drexel Burnham Lambert in Atlanta from 1970, through the "mega years" (52) according to his second wife, and until the firm imploded in 1990. Street Person refers to his career on Wall Street in the go-go years of the "men-don't-cry era" (2). At the behest of his son, Berkowitz writes of his youth in segregated Birmingham; education at Georgia Military Academy, Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania, and University of Miami School of Law; his military service in France and failed first marriage; and work and family life. A theme is the many relationships he cultivated—professionally, civically, and personally—and those relationships he regretfully did not better protect and nurture—in particular, with his eldest three of five children. Berkowitz is indebted to several psychiatrists, and a refrain becomes his impulsivity. One such rash act, admirably so, was withdrawing his application from University of Alabama School of Law when the university revoked Autherine Lucy's initial acceptance (23). This is a memoir of a different time and place, a volatile and binary universe of Black/white, war/peace, Christian/Jew, work/play. "There is always a price to pay" (4). Concluding his career with Oppenheimer & Company, in his retirement, Berkowitz remains a politically engaged Conservative blogger, newspaper op-ed contributor, self-described cynic, and art collector. After almost ninety years of a dualistic worldview, Berkowitz closes with the insight to "always treat others as you would like them to treat you" (108). You/me. Me/you. —Lisa Thaler, 11 August 2021 You can order a PDF version that you can download right away and read on your computer,

"A Conservative Capitalist Offers: Eleven Lessons and a Bonus Lesson for Raising America's Youth Born and Yet To Be Born"
| By Dick Berkowitz - Non Expert |
I wrote this book because I believe a strong country must rest on a solid family unit and that Brokaw's "Greatest Generation" has morphed into "A Confused, Dependent and Compromised Generation." I hope this book will provide a guide to alter this trend.
Dick Berkowitz . . .“Dick, I read your book this weekend. I hardly know where to start. You did an excellent job of putting into one short book a compendium of the virtues which only a relatively short time ago all Americans believed. It’s a measure of how far we have fallen that many Americans, perhaps a majority of Americans, no longer believe in what we once considered truisms. I think your father would have agreed with every word, but the party he supported no longer has such beliefs.” Mike
"Dick, I indeed marvel at how much wisdom you have been able to share with so few words. Not too unlike the experience in reading the Bible. I feel that with each read one will gain additional knowledge and new insights…" Larry You can order a PDF version that you can download right away and read on your computer,
